hello I need to change my child’s nursery asap for work. As LO is currently in pre school and needs to go for more hours.

we haven’t heard from LO dad in ages and he wants no involvement

can I change her nursery without asking him. Also in future for school can I apply and change LO school without consulting him.

What I’m asking is if I know he’s not gonna go to court and he doesn’t want involvement can I do these things without his participation

Additional info: I have a live with order

Ask for forgiveness not permission.

If he has a problem he can let you know

Why does he have parental responsibility, is he on the birth certificate?

@pinkyredrose we went to court to settle child arrangements but shortly after court he stopped bothering with LO. Haven’t seen or heard from him since or his family.

Just carry on living your lives without his input. He would have to pay any attention to his child's life whatsoever to even know you're changing nursery which he doesn't. And he'd have to take you to court to stop you, which given he doesn't bother with contact, he would lose, badly. Just crack on.
