[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Both parents became very into “It’s my time with my kid” and weren’t interested in having her see friends and it was real tough for my kid to understand that. My kid didn’t care which adult was at the playdate, she just wanted there to be a playdate and there weren’t anymore. My kid also asked me at one point why her friend couldn’t talk to the judge so they could have playdates, “If mom and dad say no, can’t you help my friend just call the judge?” and again, it took a lot of conversations to explain why that didn’t work.

this is one of the many reasons why anything other than a single home custody agreement should be illegal, a social is an important part of a child's life so often destroyed by having to split time with parents[/quote]

Parents are far more important to play dates.

What you are suggesting is basically terminating the other parents rights.  If you are ok with kids only in one home, you should give up your custody.  Many parents don't do playdates.  Its not a big deal.[/quote]
what i'm suggesting is that the other parent be required to visit the child at the primary custodian's home so as to minimize disruption to the child, the child's needs should always come before the parents needs or wants.[/quote]

Bizarre.  So, basically you  are  suggesting one parent get full sole custody and the other parent  get a play  date every so often  to see  the kids.  That's not parenting.  That's terminating a parent's rights and terminating the relationship between parent and child.

As a parent, would you be agreeable to your ex getting custody and you seeing your child every few weeks for a few hours supervised in their home?  Because, from what you say the child's needs come first and  you are saying the child is better off being  parenting by  one child and the parents needs/wants come last so your needs/wants come last and you give up custody for supervised play dates with your child.[/quote]
