Final hearing imminent

Hello all

Just after some advice, got a court date next week for a final hearing and my ex has asked for 50/50 care

our daughter is 29 months old and used to spending her time mainly with me (I’m a single parent to one child) sees her dad every weekend (one overnight stay every fortnight) and one afternoon each week but like I says he wants 50/50 now. He says the overnights are going well but she seems to come home really tired after them.

he lives in a one bedroom house, she has her own bed as it’s spacious but still no segregation, around 7 miles away from me.

he also has another daughter who’s 8 from previous relationship who also has her own bed and wants them together at the same time.

im not against him having a bit more time than he has at the moment but I don’t think 50/50 is in our daughters best interests.

He wants to be able to take her abroad and share future school holidays equally

cafcass have closed the case as there is no safeguarding issues so im just concerned that 50/50 will be granted and it will be too much upheaval at her age.

has anyone been through a similar situation and have any advice what to suggest when it comes
to the day? And also the likely outcome?

thanks in advance

I doubt he will get 50/50 when neither of his children have access to their own bedrooms.

If he gets 50/50 I will eat my own leg.
