[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not entirely clear what the situation is. Do you guys have agreed upon days and or nights where he is supposed to take the kids? If so, does he take them those assigned times? He needs to be doing that. If so, are you saying he then also sometimes wants them extra days? If so, it’s up to you if you want to say yes. I probably would unless you have something planned, but you should not be the one driving them to and fro. Their dad should do that.

And it is NOT ok if he is not taking them on the days he is assigned to take them. You and the boys deserve that certainty - the boys for stability and so they don’t feel rejected by cancellations. And you deserve it so you can make plans to go out on dates and with friends. I hope you got a good divorce settlement. Sounds like you deserve it. [/quote]

We don't have a set schedule as his job hours can be variable. He will text the boys to say he will pick them up at 6:00 tomorrow after work. Then the next day at 5:30 he will text them to say he is going to be a bit late as he is going to the gym so he will be there about 7:00 or 7:30. He will then pick them up and most days he leaves the house early so he either drops them back off here at 7:00am or he leaves them to her themselves ready and off to school.

The weekends are more he has them any weekend he isn't working but when he will actually pick them up or drop then off varies.[/quote]
