Name changed, this is pretty identifying but I hope STBXH doesn't use mumsnet.
STBXH & I seperated the first week of July, it was a long time coming & we're trying to sort out a routine for our 3 DC.
We have 2 DDs 14 & 11 and 1 DS, who's 6 years old with ASD. Over the holidays, STBXH has only seen the DC for 4 days, they've had one overnight at his new place, mainly because he's trying to get bedrooms sorted and he's getting work done at the property so their's lots of tools about etc and it's very unsafe for kids to be around.
He's been wanting to take DCs away on holiday and has been really excited, he's managed to find a last minute trip to Ireland, lovely place, lots of woods, close to the shops, beautiful scenery but he only wants to take DD2 (11)
He said DD1 wouldn't like it & DS would take all his time & energy so it wouldn't be a holiday for him
DD1 has really struggled with the separation, she's constantly in a foul mood, leaving her at home whilst DD2 goes away isn't acceptable and DS would love the woods and the nature, he'd be an absolute handful but he'd be gutted if he was left behind & it would be very hard to try & explain/come up with a lie on why he couldn't go.
I want to say, take all 3 or take none at all.
