Co-Parenting Schedule & Financials
How do you co-parent with your child(ren)'s other parent? What does your schedule look like; summer, holidays and school year? I have an 8yr old whom her father and I have always done okay with co-parenting, but these last 6 months things have been getting harder. He bought a house with his girlfriend last year and moved about half hour away.
He's trying to get it to where she's with them more than me. (4-3-4-3) I am not okay with that. We have never been married, not gone to court about custody. I've offered a 3-4-4-3 schedule or every 3.5 days we switch while she has distance learning. When in school, I have her Mon PM - Fri AM.
He makes great money; gives me a couple hundred a month, covers insurance and we split her costs equally. Everyone says I could get more but I'm okay with not, she has a stepfather who loves her and she's provided for.
I feel as if he and his gf are gonna try to get my daughter to move in with them, they live well, have a nice house and she gets away with more there; with me she has 2 younger sisters, and there she's the youngest (8yrs). We have a nice home, just older and well loved. Dghtr makes comments after coming home from Dad's where it sounds like her life with me or about me is spoken in a negative tone. I've always been fair/flexible and worked with him.
I am frustrated because he's not communicating well with me, never been a good communicator but has gotten worse in the last 6 months. Just frustrated
