Co parenting

[Nic2300]

We co parent with my partners ex who he has 2 kids too, Are contact is changing to 50/50 & has messaged to say that she’s going on holiday in 3 weeks time Myself and my current partner both work and as it’s the summer the contact schedule suits everyone but now she’s going on holiday I duno what my response should be as I’m working and my partner and it’s summer so there off school

It sounds like an issue for your partner to work out with his ex

But they should be working out holidays in advance for next year. Maybe he should have a chat with her next April/May.

This isn’t your issue to sort. It’s between your partner and his ex. You shouldn’t be worrying about this or thinking about taking time off.

Leave them to it.

I don't always agree with the blanket, your partner should sort. In a long term relationship which is fully blended it becomes a household issue and whatever your partner decides will impact you. I do agree that communication should be done through the father though.

You say contact is changing to 50/50, what was it before? When was it decided it would be 50/50? Had there been any conversations about how that would look over the holidays? How would it be 50/50 if you both work?

It's not clear if you had a schedule all worked out and discussed this year and she's now decided to go away on one of her weeks or if you were moving to 50/50 but hadn't sorted details and she decided well I'll take this week.

I agree with @DaisyChain505don’t worry yourself with it. Not your children so why should you take on the stress of working out childcare arrangements.

What are you doing with regards to your own 2 children @Nic2300 ?
Are they with their mother for the whole summer?
