I'm a single mum to 3 DDs aged 8, 7 and 3. ExH is a twat of the highest order, we are in the middle of a very bitter divorce battles all due to finances as he wont pay towards the kids and has disappated money etc.
He is rubbish at seeing the kids - he lives 1.5h away in our marital home whilst we are squished in at my parents. He calls the DDs once a week, but this is with no set day/routine. Sometimes he might miss a week, other times call twice a week.
This summer hols I offered him exactly half of the holidays - 3.5 weeks. He has taken them for 2 weeks. I don't know if they have gone back to our marital home, 1.5h north of me, where he lives, or in totally the opposite direction to his parents house, which is 45min south of me.
I'd just like to know where they are. He won't spew to me or give me straight answers - I didn't actually ask him as we only communicate by text - he was and continues to be verbally abusive so chatting is a no-go.
DDs said they often ask to call me but daddy won't let them. Yesterday they asked me to call them when they arrived home with daddy. I text him and asked him to call me. He didn't.
This morning I called and he won't pick up.
Of course eventually he will pick up, but it can sometimes be days before he does pick up or call me back. The girls are aware of this. Very annoying! Do they ever stop being twats?

I have no idea where ex has taken the kids for his summer visitation. Do they ever stop being twats?
