My separation agreement lays out a parenting schedule. This schedule was based on my work schedule, which is mon-thurs. So basically Sunday night - Thursday after school, my daughter7 was with her mom, and Thursday after school - Sunday night with me. After 3 months I was able to work out a deal with my boss (more flexibility) so that I could get her during work days, I asked ex if we could do week on/off and she agreed. This has been going on another 3 months, (sep. agreement states "residency time will only be altered if both parties agree to in writing") We had all of these conversations via email.
In making the schedule change I took on some pretty hefty daycare costs (she had her own), especially during the summer. Our agreement splits section 7 costs @ 75%mine/25%hers. I really don't think my ex has any clue that daycare costs are section 7, honestly neither did I until very recently. I just received my first bill, and I'm afraid once she finds out she needs to pay for part of my daycare she'll want to go back to the original schedule. This would be bad for me and bad for our daughter, the more transitions she went through the harder it was on her. Since the change it's been way easier for her, and myself, can't speak for the ex.
The fact that the schedule change was agreed upon via email and not "in writing" per say, is that a problem?
