I am no longer going to call him on Sat and Sun mornings to see if he will be visiting. Nor will I continue wasting my weekends off sitting around waiting for him to show up knowing that he almost never does. If he comes out w/out calling and we are not here, that's his problem for not letting me know he is coming. Maybe after making the 2 hour drive from his house to ours a few times for nothing, he'll start giving me fair warning when he wants to visit.
Hi! I've been meaning to get the time to post here, and you sound like you're doing really great!!! That is all wonderful!!! Consequences are wonderful. I was doing that too, my H doesn't always tell me about times either although we are now putting together more of a set schedule. I realized I was sitting around kind of waiting, and I'm done with that. I think you should stick to all of that--sounds really good.
Also, my kids were both diagnosed with SID also. Then a few years later, also with autism spectrum. Apparently a lot of kids with autism spectrum have SID. Wondering if your son has mild AS that might help with documenting the need for the private school?
It does sound like your H has lots of expenses, but you do as well. The legal separation sounds like a good idea for now, that's for sure.
BTW, I'm homeschooling my 2 also. It is really nice for kids with special needs. I may have to place them in school next year also, so we'll see. Karen
