H has just been to collect the children for a few hours. He hasn't seen them for two weeks, no contact, just one phone call to ask if he could see them this evening.
I asked him if he had heard from the mediation service. He had. I asked if he'd called them. He hadn't.
I am getting frustrated. It is three months since he left the family home and he is simply avoidng every issue. He has moved on very quickly and already has new GF and a "step-daughter".
He has not offered nor contributed a bean with regards to money for the children. He has refused to attend DS1 CAMHS appointment tomorrow (he's working) and did not see DS1's first theatre production - of which there were seven shows - (he's working).
I am the one bending over backwards to facilitate contact. I am the one meeting myself coming back with regards to being mum, working and keeping the house. We bought our home as a renovation project and so various "niggles" have needed time and money spent on them recently to put them right.
I am frustrated that I cannot move on with regards to setting routine contact for the children and sorting our finances. Am I expecting too much or is this typical?
