When we were together he would quite regularly take his daughter (11) from a previous relationship to his mums on contact weekends and insisted this was because she needed one on one time with him and it wasn't fair she had to share her time with our two . That was fine but it did leave me in the lurch a bit with out two small children (5 & 12 weeks). Now that we have split up I've suggested he has our two on the opposite weekend so as to not disrupt the time he has with his dd.....oh no! He want them all together so she can help him with the other two! And he said it's good to have them together! I agree with that but it all feels a bit hypocritical, like it's all just for his benefit and not the children! I was slated for suggesting he take our older ds to his mums with him when he had her and now it's a good idea
