So ex and I decided on a schedule of overnights between him an out LG as we split. It worked well. How ever, lately he has been changing this at the last min, not sticking to agreed pick up timesand will not make any changes for me. I have asked him one to change the schedule as o was unwell. He did it very begrudgingly. I am changing my plans almost every weekend in order for him to work.

He is also late paying his maintainence ever week, once he has paid it on time.

I normally don’t mind a change of plan but this weekend I had plans and I’ve had to arrange childcare. Last week I asked him if he could have LG a bit longer as I was at a baby shower and he refused.

I’ve tried talking to him but he won’t listen. I really didn’t want a strict schedule but I think that’s the way to go isn’t it?

Can you sit down with him ask that you plan a schedule that works for both of you . If he continues then if he misses he waits till next scheduled contact.

Ask him to set up a standing order for maintenance.

It sounds like this is a lot about control.
