Hi,
Been divorced for over 5 years, never made any legal agreement for the childcare of our 2 boys. My XH now thinks that his 'responsiblity' is 24 hours a week. Literally he'll pick them up on a Friday at 6 and at 6 sharpish Saturday he brings them back! He has had them for one week during the summer but thats it for the year. When they are there they love it, i believe boys need a male role model, as i am still single. He's a good Dad but he will not give them any more time. He sets the days he sees them and can never do any extra if i ask. Do i have a leg to stand on if i went to a Family Law Solicitor asking for a couple of extra days a month. A whole weekend would be nice. He's remarried but i'm realising that my limited free time may be hindering my success at finding someone new. To be honest if it wasn't for my Mum picking up the slack with babysitting for me i'd have no social life!!! Am i being unreasonable?
