I had to move for work - really had to, before XP and I split up. We have a 2 year old DD. The money for him to travel here to see her 3 weekends every two months is taken out of my maintenance (as I think that's what CSA would say) and so what I get is pretty negligible, but she has seen him and loves Daddy, and he is reliable as a carer for her.
He doesn't want to keep doing that. He wants her for one or two (seperate) weeks every two months. At his (or mostly, his girlfriends), because weekends aren't convenient.
I want him to see her, and I have to work at the weekends so currently he has been having her for all of those, I could possibly swap them into these weeks that he wants. Is it good for our DD though? The last two times he has had her for longer (for 5 days ish) she has come home really unsettled, regressing, etc.
I want to do the best for my girl - but not sure what it is? Any advice very welcome.

He only wants dd for *proper* lengths of time - where do I/ should I stand?
