Hi guys,
New here so hi everyone.
My issue is I left my ex over a year ago now and have recently met someone else, I used to have my DD overnight before but since meeting someone else she now refuses to let me. I have always supported her money wise. She gets 120 every 4 weeks and i have never defaulted . I pay extra ontop of that for school trips toys ect. I see her once a week for around 7 hours due to work. I can get time off to have her over night and can always pick her up and take her at no expence of her mother.
Her mothers attitude is, she doesnt trust my new partner, says she has to meet her first which i dnt wont. Me and my new partner have agreed to pay for police checks so that my ex can see in black and white we are no danger more so my partner.
she lets my DD stay at her familys houses in emergencies but never with me. This has all come about because she wants to go out tonight (im currently sat in hers woth my DD) iv agreed i can stay till 9 latesest as i use public transport and it takes me 2+ hours to get home but shes staying out till 10 telling me her shes fine with her other daughter who is 13 yo. I strongly disagree with that as my step daughter is struggling with life herself and is in no fit state to look after herself never mind my DD.
I understand this is eyesore to read but its making me so so poorly.
Just to add i have just moved into a 2bed flat so my daughter has her own room 🙂 i also pay full rent as i work full time
Thank you

Not fair mothers can have a new partner because step dads are more socially acceptable but dads can't have a new partner because they have less rights
Full out a c100 please writing in your parenting plan that's been in place so it can be formalized then she won't have a option
