But see, that's just it--he's not like you! He doesn't want her on weekends, because that's when he's "getting a life" with his band and the OW. (Last weekend he called D from an anniversary party--it was his 6 month anniversary with OW! Yeah, that calls for a party for sure.) He chose to leave us for OW, and he chose to live closer to her than to D--and across town from her school. I have no problems with her spending as much time as she wants with H--but he only wants her when it's convenient for him. Having said that, no, I don't want shared custody. Because I don't think that's best for D, not because I want to punish H. He's made choices that demonstrate his daughter is not his highest priority. Honey, if he was a father like you we wouldn't be here!!
