I know that generally the courts order joint and/or shared custody in cases where parents cooperate and communicate well
parent A has custody but is claiming there is no communication or cooperation for joint/shared custody
Parent B has access but is claiming material change and that there is cooperation and communication
parent A wishes to have child on Christmas Day/eve weekend as well as New Year's Eve/weekend
Parent A cancelled parent Bs visits that fell on Christmas Eve and New Years the first Christmas after order was made, parent A in writing said pick another day or you lose your visit - I know there is case law about sole custodial parents changing visits or threatening to cancel visits For access parent when they wish to do so
Parent B had contacted parent A in advance to arrange something but Parent A was being difficult and wanted to provide work schedule, never did, and ended up giving no additional time on Christmas and cancelled visits that fell on those days
Parent A, after being taken to court, offered parent B for time but excluded Christmas eve day and New Year's Eve and day. Parent A had the majority of the time. Parent B asked to split the break in 2 but Parent A asked for daycare costs. Parent Bs lawyer sent parent As lawyer a letter and As lawyer said these are things the parent should be able to resolve on their own - I am thinking if this is something they will use as a weapon against communication and cooperation. Parent B accepted he time that was being offered in fearing of getting no time at all
Parent B, this year, asked to split the time in half. Parent A said she will advise what dates Parent B can see his child but will not be getting Christmas or New Years weekend. Parent As argument is that parent B doesn't célèbre ate those days. Parent A advises that she will share the reminding days in half once she has her work schedule
Parent B also asked for travel consents and for Parent A to apply for passport.
Parent B sent letter to OC reiterating the request and staying that that it appears Parent A wishes to have child on both Christmas and New Years weekends and to share the remaining days based on her unpredictable work schedule - once she has it from work. Parent B further stated he has time booked off work and wishes to travel with child and provided travel consents.
Question: which parent is source of conflict here and which parent would appear as the reasonable parent here? Should parent B back down and just take whatever Parent A offers or should Parent B proceed with a motion?
What would reflect better for joint custody? Parent A has a history of being difficult with access and denying holiday requests unreasonably and switching dates and times to suite her own needs and subsidized daycare regulations. Parent a wants parent B to pay 100% daycare costs and has stated in writing that Parent B will forfeit visits if daycare is not paid in advance , i.e., you need to give me the money or you lose your visit
Please no jumping to conclusions. If something is not clear just ask and I will answer or clarify.
