My ex and I have been separated since 2015, divorced finalized in 2020.
Our Separation agreement was finalized in Dec 2019 and based on that I had alternating weekends with the kids.
There are a number of reasons why it was settled at this; high conflict, control, financially drained etc.,
The kids want week to week but my ex will not allow it. They have actually been coming to me more and more over the past few months but ex refuses to officially change anything.
I've already sent her an email asking for the change, I was immediately shot down with phrases like "I can’t have kids away from me at any circumstance." "It doesn’t work for me".
She also says that if the kids want to spend more time with me they can just call me when they want me to come and pick them up, then drop them off after a few hours. The challenge with this is lack of routine, support for their homework, etc.,
According to our agreement we should be leveraging mediation. Any advice in how to best approach this situation?
The eldest is 10 and youngest is 7.
Thank you for any suggestions.
