[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a very tricky situation, one that I haven't resolved for myself. In my case, I book business travel on the nights my X is supposed to have son, so I often cannot, as in literally cannot, make the accommodation. If you have things you need to do, you might schedule them on those nights and see how things unfold.

When I do not have business travel (in other words, maybe I have a plan to take a yoga class), I have a policy that I will make the accommodation. It's partly what OP fears (it's nicer for kids to be with someone they know), but it's also because I don't want to set a rigid tone.

I'm hoping that I'm setting a tone of balance: I will if I can, but I am the breadwinner, like OP my X is delinquent on support, and our DC's health insurance and home rest on my professional success. Hopefully that's how this whole things plays out. Like OP, I have doubts and fears. It's hard to know what to do, so OP has my sympathies..[/quote]

Thanks! It helps to hear from someone with a similar situation. [/quote]
