Hey Everyone,
I love this site and I appreciate all the help Ive been given over the years...
Im going through another issue (theyre increasing as of the past 6 months or so), which I feel is being blown way out of proportion, so I would like ot get some insight here.
I had plans for a family trip approximately a month from now, we made it a few weeks back, and this was the first opportunity we had to go as a family, it was on my weekend with our son, so I didnt think there would be any issues.
Last night I received an email regarding a weekend camp, asking if I agreed to it or not. Since I had planned a family trip already I said no and explained to her why. She then got our son to call me crying, and sent me emails about how Im putting myself first and being unreasonable etc. Needless to say this was not the correct answer in her eyes. I have no issues taking him to weekend camps, as I have done so in the past and would have taken him to this one if I hadnt already had plans.
I was under the assumption that neither parent has any say in the other parents parenting time. I offered to switch weekends so she could take him to camp and I could still go on my trip, but what if there had been no chance to switch? Is there any legal ramifications from my choosing to take our son on a family trip as opposed to weekend camp? Do I need to work with her on this or am I able to say no?
Thanks in advance everyone,
