[quote=Anonymous]If it were me, I’d try every alternative I can think of, like flexibility with which weekend, clear doing pick ups, etc. But in the end if there is no way to reach a consensus, id be sure to be available to do the drive. Id tell my son when it’s time to go. And, if he doesn’t get in the car within say a half hour id text my ex and let him know. Then The ball is in his court. He can call his son, drive to OPs house, whatever. But that’s really about all OP can do. Having been through HS with three kids, I can say for certain that one of mine would never leave for the weekend during school and no way would I try to physically force it. That is so demeaning. Relationships grow and evolve over time. Who amongst us has the same relationship with their kid at 17 as at 2. You’ve got to meet your kid where they are. And at 17, you kind of take a backseat to friends and football games. [/quote]
