Using children under 16 to make visitation arrangements ?

Children actually both under the age of 15, youngest still in primary. Not communicating with resident parent at all. In fact I’m led to believe I’m in fact blocked and or ignored. I feel this is unacceptable and bloody childish.
All the father would have to do is email that’s it. Oh and fwiw hasn’t seen children since before Xmas and was a no show on a day we had arranged after. I think he has certain narcissistic traits as well.
No point in using parent apps he would refuse as he is a self important twat and doesn’t like being “told what to do”.

Any advice ?

I was thinking of a final email (if he reads it, or mines blocked) saying he should not put adult decisions onto them. The children have enough going on with school and mental health issues and the youngest is due a life changing operation. That it puts them under unnecessary stress.

You can’t force him to act like a grown up or to honour his contact. Talk to your children, reassure them that their father’s behaviour isn’t a reflection upon them and they are not responsible for it.

Disengage and invest your energies where it will be benefit you and your children the most and it isn’t with this man baby.

Enjoy the silence.
