My husband left me 3 months ago and I have previously posted for advice.
Today he told me he is ready to settle down and buy/rent his own place. At the moment he is visiting DS for an hour or two each night which we both agree is unsustainable.
He has indicated that he wants shared custody (not sure if right term) in that he wants 16m old DS to have overnight stays and have him for half of the week - either in a block or specific days.
I work full time and have no choice but to do so. It was not my choice to seperate and it's bad enough not spending time with DS because of work. I'm so upset that now I will have even less time with him.
Am I being unreasonable/selfish or should younger children spend more time with their mothers. What is the legal take on things?
I will do what's best for DS but my heart will break.....
