[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Piggybacking on this, as the parent who did not move out and kids are with me. Should I be initiating/coordinating these check ins? Co-parent never asks for calls or FaceTimes when kids are with me, occasionally we swap pics or notes of the day. Maybe if it's been 5-7 days due to travel, but not when it's 3-4 nights during the school week.[/quote] I’m also the parent who didn’t move out and who didn’t file. I initiate everything including visitation while we wait for temporary custody arrangements. DH/STBX checks in to say “tell DC good luck at soccer” maybe every two weeks? He never checks in to ask how DC is doing or if homework is done or if they can talk on the phone. I’m surprised by answers suggesting frequent contact is normal and wondering if I’m supposed to facilitate daily contact or if STBX should be trying harder or what. [/quote]
