[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I see it with my boyfriend, he tries to call the kids, they don't answer, he texts his XW, she doesn't respond or have kids call, rinse and repeat.[/quote]

Does the custody arrangement specify phone calls?  Because it's not really mom's job to make the kids call their dad. It's the dad's job to use his parenting time to build a strong enough relationship that the kids want to talk to him.  Plenty of dads manage to do it.  [/quote]

Most custody agreements are meaningless except if you have two rational reasonable people who are willing to work together.  Dad cannot have a relationship without mom's support if she refuses contact.  How does he get around her?  He can't.[/quote]

You clearly don’t understand custody.

If he has a court order agreement he shows up and gets the kids, if she refuses you request a police stand by.[/quote]

That sounds very likely to improve your relationship with your child! It's not at all embarrassing or stressful for the kid, right? You must be a super awesome dad.[/quote]

They must honor commitments whether they like it or not.[/quote]

I bet you have an awesome relationship with your child, with a police escort. Are the cops gonna stay outside your house the whole time to keep the kid from bolting?  What is your plan, sue them until they love and respect you?[/quote]
