A friendly suggestion, filed as Exhibit B. 📁

"Hey, maybe we should plan an extended joint trip with the kids this summer — somewhere tropical!"

Three months later in court: "Your Honor, he's unstable. Just last month he suggested we MOVE the kids to Hawaii!"

In high-conflict coparenting, no good-faith offer goes unpunished. A vacation idea becomes a relocation threat. Flexibility becomes instability. A kind gesture becomes a weapon.

This is why so many coparents stop trying to be friendly — not because they don't want peace, but because every olive branch gets turned into a club.

If you've had a reasonable suggestion weaponized in court, you know this one hits. 😬
