Quick update. I took on board your advice but at same time I didnt back down to her demands either as it would have just give her more reason and ammunition for future attempts.
I offered her an alternative location which would involve less travelling for her and be more convenient for me than the one she demanded, and in exchange i asked for some extra time as a comprimise for my extra travelling. This way i could have shown that ive tried to be reasonable if things didnt work out.
But she didnt respond initially .
Then i reported it to the police. and under the definition of blackmail a demand and a threat of a menace was involved, the operator on 101 agreed it was blackmail and because there was a legal document in place it was more concerning. I also mentioned that i had tried to be reasonable and amicable with a comprimise.
the lady on phone was understanding and a mother herself, she called my ex and explained to her to co-operate for the sake of our son rather than being awkward out of spite.
So after couple days i text to ask what outcome was and she agreed to the comprimise change .
to be continued (no doubt very near future for the next episode lol)
Hi There,
.
Well done, sounds as though for the moment at least you have a result.
