Hi I will try to cut a long story short. I split my my dd'd dad last year due to him having an affair. Dd is now nearly 5 since we split up her dad has not been able to stick to any arrangements we have came to. I have tried very hard to encourage him to be a big part of her life but weeks can go by without so much as a phone call came to a peak over xmas he appeared for 30 mins on xmas morning then no contact for 3 weeks. This really upset me as I really feel that my dd deserves regular contact with her dad. So we had a sit down and he agreed he would try to have regular access but could only commit to 4 hours each Sunday.
He has almost managed to keep this up but has cancelled or cut short their time several times since January.
Now that I have spoke to him about introducing very gradually my partner of 6 months to my dd. He is saying he wants to go through court have dd every second weekend and half the hols. I appreciate this is pretty standard for fathers but Im not confident he is capable of keeping this up.
I guess what u really want to know is how long does it take to sort out an access agreement if it goes to court and would the judge take into account
