Hello all, I would really appreciate some advice.
My sister was left by her DH approximately 10 years ago when her children were very small. Since they divorced, they have shared custody of the children and he has also paid her monthly maintenance. This was agreed without any legal arrangement.
Recently my 12-year-old nephew has become very badly behaved and his father now wants to wash his hands of him. In practice this means no contact and minimum maintenance for both children.
My sister is a nurse in the NHS and works various flexible shifts, including nightshifts. She relies on her ex-H having the children for her to be able to work the unsociable hours.
Given that he’s now refusing to have the DC, does anyone know if there’s anything she can do at work to revert to more sociable shifts? Or will she have to give up work? Or is there anything that we can do to force him to have the Dc? Any advice or thoughts appreciated!
