Hello. I have a question regarding how to handle this situation .
My ex and I to put it mildly are not on good terms . We shared 50 / 50 custody of 2 children on a week on week off basis.
We are to exchange them every Friday after school . In the summer months , the exchange is still on Fridays . Our signed separation agreement states that if we have special summer vacation requests ( ie: change weeks or keep them 2 weeks in a row) we are to submit those requests to the other party by April 1 . I did not receive any such request this year . A couple of days ago , I received a message asking for my ex to keep the kids longer in the first week of July.
I declined the request as it was 2 months after the time my ex was supposed to notify me . The response I received back was " I am taking them anyways and if you want them back Friday , you can drive the 5 hours each way to come get them. "
I feel this is contempt . Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should do ?
