If the courts or lawyers or psychologists or whoever decide that maximum contact is the best option all the time in every case, then why are parent not mandated to go 50-50 right from the start?
The more parents who decide that an equal relationship with both loving parents is the way to go (and 90% of the time it is..not always...but most).. the more the caselaw and laws will change. Hence our discussion with you.
By the way....not one of us here have EVER said that 50/50 should be every case...but your ex is not an abuser, drug addict, pedophile, etc ..... so there's no good reason for you to be rejecting an equal relationship with his kids.
I have said it before and will reiterate again, it is not about money for me.
I am not an unreasonable person. If this was amicable and we were working together and he was showing me that he's a good dad
When parties are not communicating, any slight or criticism is magnified. There is a tendency to minimize the other spouse’s good qualities and maximize the bad. Warring spouses are rarely in a position to step back and evaluate the other’s behaviour with objective eyes. Nor are they able to critically assess their own behaviour...

He isn't abusing them. He isn't hurting them per se. I do think he loves them. I just don't want to lose the arrangement I have.
