The doctors are obliged to give you medical information - as for informing you of appointments so that you can attend.....I'm not so sure.....if the mother says she doesn't want you there, I think they would have to respect her wishes on that and give you an update after the appointment or you could take them instead perhaps?
Hi
After my last involvement with the ex and the doctors situation I managed to get this sorted, as I have parental responsibility the doctors write a letter of apology, and all restrictions cancelled, but now we have a new issue... never ending I know!
My court order states I’m allowed to see my son from 4:30-6:30pm during my daughters swimming lesson.. as the lesson is only 30min I decided to take him out till 6:30, the mother was not not agreeing.. arguing infront of my daughter was what we did which I hate.. she is doing what the court order is saying to without any give! Not sure what do do here! Any advise is welcome.
Is there the possibility for a different time for the swimming lesson? If so, then try to agree to get that moved. Otherwise you are looking at getting the order varied.
Hi guys
Hope your all well. Just to let you all know alittle about my situation, currently I have the children every Tuesday and wendnesday, every other Friday every other Saturday. My son stays with me no probs who’s is 18months old but my daughter who is 4 finds it hard to stay and I don’t push so I drop off every night at 6 before bed times. The way I see it is when she is ready she will stay of her own free will, but I’m doing all the pick ups and drop offs.. not once has the ex came to collect or drop off and I’m always getting hassle when I’m late as it’s very hard to please everyone, but I’m not one to not let her know before hand yet I still get the “it’s not good enough” message.
So my question is if this goes back to court as I have all this time with the kids due to a court order... could the magistrates take time away from me? The reason I say this is because I know what my ex is like, she will bring up all the miner things that happened in the past and make them sound like I’m an axe murderer in court because deep down she dosent want me to see the kids as much as I do! Pure evil!!! Sorry not sorry to say.
Hi there
It's unlikely that the court would reduce your time with the children, but that's just my opinion. Are you thinking about returning to court to ask for her to share pickup/drop offs?
