Who is BU?

Child needs glasses for everyday wear, however they haven’t had any since August as they either broke or lost them (story keeps changing)

Resident Parent and NRP do not get on. RP sends message for child to relay saying if NRP wants child to have glasses NRP will have to collect them from opticians as they are working on the day they will be in.

NRP works long full time hours in a town 45 minutes away on a good day, and only has child EOW, so if the optician needs to fit them it will be another two weeks before child can wear the glasses (if they post them to the opticians in their town). NRP is inclined to tell RP this is their responsibility as RP, however if RP insists they will sort it out if necessary even though it will take longer so child can have glasses.

Who is being Unreasonable?

And I meant to add that my local Specsavers is open on Sundays, too.

where's op ?

I second the view that if the child has been doing without glasses since August, they probably need another check-up by now.

I’m assuming you’re nrp’s partner. They need mediation for this child’s sake.

Wow, just go get the glasses. Preferably 4 months ago.

NRP has been 'asking since August'... is NRP incapable of taking child to the opticians on one of their weekends?

Even if child ended up with two pairs of glasses, it's better than none for 4 months when you need them for everyday wear. This is basic parenting, and both parents have failed.
