Father picks and chooses

Hi, sorry if this is in the wrong place. My child is 3 and I spilt with the father when he was 18 months old. In the last year the father has seen his son about once every 2 months for 6 hours. He saw him in October then didn't bother until 20th of December when he said he wanted him over night Xmas eve. Ibrefused as he hasn't had him over night since we split and hardly sees him. I tried to go mediation but he wouldn't respond to them. He came go his birthday in March which was the 1st time he saw him since October. After the party he said he would make an effort to see him once a month as a minimum but we're on week 8 of him not seeing him and last time it was only for 4 hours. When he does see him my son gets upset when he gets home and is naughty. There was also an oncodemt where his father brought him home in a nappy when his been out of nappies for 6 months and called him a baby for having an accident. Is there anything I can do? I know I can't force him to see him but it's not fair on my son to be upset for a couple of days after he sees his dad then the dad not bother for 8 weeks

I would stop contact and tell him to take you to mediation/court.

I would not be allowing him to take my Ds I He seems to want to be a glory dad . This isn’t about your Ds .

Tell him he goes to mediation no contact

I would refuse contact and tell him to take me to court.
it just sounds so upsetting for the child,.
