[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We share joint legal custody and I have residential custody.  When the ex and I split all he wanted in terms of custody was every other weekend (fri after school-mon morning), alternate holidays, and 2 weeks in the summer.  For a very long time that is all he took.  As they have gotten older he has taken more interest and has been spending more time with them.  I think this is wonderful and have tried to be very flexible.  We have recently come to an impasse though.  The ex now wants EVERY weekend.  That is not acceptable to me at all.  My job is very demanding and during the week its go go go for all of us.  I really value our weekend time.  As a compromise I suggested on his off weekends that he take the kids for 2-3 days during the week.  He travels A LOT for business during the week and I would be flexible with those days.  He said he could only manage 1 day during the week.  I then suggested adding on to his weekend time.  Instead of fri-mon make it fri-tues or thurs-mon and on the off weekend he could take them 1 day during the week.  No he wants every weekend.  I cannot believe he is acting like this.  I feel he is very close to taking this to court.  I consulted a lawyer and she said the chances of him getting what he wants is slim to none.  I'm really just venting.  I really don't know how to work this out.       [/quote]

How dare he try to spend more than what amounts to a week with his each mionth!

Don't be so sure if this lands in courts that things  will go in your favor. [/quote]
