What are the arrangements you have with your DSC?
DH is currently having family therapy ordered by the courts and she's said there needs to be a radical change as the EOW dynamic isn't working. Several reports have confirmed mother is emotionally harming the children. Therapist says the children need to spend more time with DH to counteract the damage mother is doing.
Therapist suggests 50:50, but we live an hour away so I can't see how this is practical. I have two children of my own and my ex wouldn't agree to me uprooting them to live closed to DH's ex to accommodate a 50:50 for them (understandably!).
I'm interested to hear what arrangements others have as I'm thinking we need to "think outside the box" somehow. Change of residence has been mentioned in court but if we can somehow avoid this trauma, we would prefer to.
