Hi, my ex has applied for child arrangement order for our son age 12 as he wants something fixed in place. He currently has him one evening a week for a couple of hours and then every second weekend and this is how he wants to keep it.
I have 2 questions really. Firstly, I want him to have our son half of all school holidays but he's refused, saying he will help look for alternative childcare but that due to work he can't have him for this length of time. If I tell the court that I want school holidays to be shared with my ex will the court enforce it and make him look after him?
Also, my ex wants drop off/pick up to be in a mutual place (I don't like him coming to the door so he waits down the road in his car for our son). Will the judge agree to his request for this?
I have no idea how these things work so any information on the process will be great. Do I actually have to attend court?
Thanks
