To not forget her?

[Whenthegoinggetstoughh]

So my ex seems to think that my daughter (8) doesn’t have a choice about this because she is 8. He wants to take my 2 children on holiday and my daughter really doesn’t want to, he is going with his new GF and her son, he probably thinks I am bitter about it but I am not, I actually want her to do, but I want her to want to go?

I made a mistake of pushing her to go last year and she fainted on the plane (she has never ever fainted) I really don’t think she enjoyed it and I think it is really unfair that he says she doesn’t have a choice. My 5 year old son wants to go but I don’t think he would cope very well without his sister and if neither of them go he won’t be able to have them on the days he should have as he will be on holiday?

Tricky can you talk to your ex? It’s understandable he wants to take kids on holiday but not nice if they don’t want to be there. Legally you can refuse permission and he would have to get a court order but equally he can do the same to you.

I know, it would be so much easier if she actually wanted to go.

Can you convince her to go… sell the location and activities so she enjoys it?

I have tried, she is so adamant! She is going on a trip on Friday with school and is so excited about it, I want her to feel the same about this. I asked my ex if he could take me instead (joke obviously)
