[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thank you, all! A bit of a follow up question: do I need to request both parents' "permission" to have a play date, or should I assume that the parent with whom I was communicating (in this case, the dad) has full say? I know this might sound weird, but I just want to be respectful of both parents' wants/needs/preferences. I have no reason to believe the mom would say no. I also want to be able to schedule a play date in the future by reaching out to the mom. Does this make sense? Thanks for everyone's thoughtful comments.[/quote] You only need to consult the custodial parent at the time of the event. I (divorced mom) would be a bit annoyed if another parent asked my ex for permission on the scheduled time with me. That parent could always consult with the other parent if need be - say for a vacation out of state, religious event, or whatever gets someone's hackles up. [/quote]
