[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You mentioned that you are flexible on a lot of things.  For example, letting Dad change weekends when there is a meet.

Do you think you could stop your flexibility, in situations where it benefits Dad, for a while so that he's motivated to find a compromise, or would he just take that out on your kid?  For example, if you didn't trade with him, and there was a meet, would he let your keep the kid on the meet weekend, or grudgingly take him, or would he let the kid miss?[/quote]

Op is not offering flexibility, she is demanding dad work around a scheduled she created without her consent.  Normally this is done to stop the visits so she should just stop them vs creating drama.  Then she’ll be like the other poster complaining about the lack of relationship when it was mostly her doing.

There are lots of swim programs.  Kid can miss or she can drive to dads after sim.  [/quote]

I don't know why I'm defending myself, but seriously, read the thread. The schedule I've created is AROUND HIS AVAILABILITY so far. I have never scheduled one single activity on exDH's time. DC12 would like to swim 3 days a week next year so we're trying to figure out a way to make this work. You are a very bitter person.[/quote]
