Hi
Me and my ex have been for the last 3 years and somehow managed to stay amicably and share our child arrangements without any formal agreement.
I have been covering almost ALL weekends all these years ( Fri - Sun ) except 4/5 times a year . Also when possible visit during the week or keep overnight. So in total i had 1/3 of the year
But this was possible due to the fact me been living in close proximity to my Ex wife's house since and it was my decision so I can spend more time with my child. But every weekend is becoming harder, especially since my ex not flexible to cover weekends. I'm also starting a new business so finding it hard with this schedule not to mention missing my social life for the last few years , etc but my Ex doesn't want to change this and threatening to go to court if i dont commit to every weekend except 3 times a year.
So my question is what is my right - Can the court/mediator order me to have more days or force me to stick with this current every-weekend schedule? or will they consider me asking for every other weekend?
Thanks
