OK I am sure I am right about this issue but I also realize that I don't think straight all the time when it comes to the custody situation so I thought I would ask for advice.
My daughter is a very good dancer but is very young she is 10. She is doing competitive dance (she doesn't have to audition to be on it though) Her team has won gold so they are a good team.
Her mom sent me an email with some negotiating prior to our case on monday. One of the issues she said she will not settle unless she has is that "that no dance class, rehearsal, competition or recital can be missed for any reason." I told her no that School, health, therapy, and counselling comes first and I will not sign anything that says otherwise.
She doesn't put anything first when it comes to dance. She has had our child at school late or absent from school each of her parenting days. Our daughter had a dance competition friday evening and saturday (in town) so she kept her home from school all day friday. She also removed her 20 minutes early from counselling on the thursday so that child could attend dance class.
I do not object to dance but I do not believe that it should be first.
Child struggles in school and receives mostly C's with a few B's. She has been improving but its taken a lot of work and teacher has discussed with us and counsellor that when child misses time its much more of a struggle to get child focused at school the other days (child does have special needs and on an IEP)
Opinion on the clause? She wrote back that if I don't agree to this clause she would rather the case go to judge (although this is not the only clause she says this about)
