So so sick of contact. Ex has contact order, I stick to it and have done throughout dd's (now 5) life. Now on third court case because he keeps claiming I break contact (I don't) Bored of constant court hearings (21 appearances so far) and stupid bloody waste of money. Sample conversation/ court hearing: "Yes, you can see your daughter every other weekend and one night in week if you can arrange it with work, yes you can have half the hols, no she's not wild about it but it's her right to know her dad so she's going to go whether she likes it or not. Yes, you can take her where you like, yes you can have her passport, no I don't need to know where you're taking her if you don't want to tell me, no I'm not bothered what you feed her if you think it's ok, of course you can take her to see her grandma and her cousins. No, you don't have to have her in bed by 7.30m if that's your judgement as her dad. Of course she can see your friends, even if you wanted to take her to a crack house there's knack all I can do about it so why are you dragging me into this? Yes she's miserable about being away from me but you won't bring her home when she cries so what do you want me to do about it? She's your daughter, this is your time so do what you like and bring her back so she can go to school in some sort of state to learn. That's all. " Not changed address or phone number since split, not even had a single snog in 5 years, let alone date or step children. May as well still be married, apart from not getting thumped every other week. What more can I say and why do I have to keep going to court to say it? Any answers?
