I've gotten half a dozen emails from X today. Mostly relating to custody. My L explained to me he has to have over 150 days or something (40% of the year) and he would qualify for lower child support. The first year he moved out he had no overnights with them, then went up to one a week, then a few months ago he went up to one weeknight and every other weekend. I have always allowed him to have them as much as he wanted the past 2 years. D9 said when he moved out and was seeing her the 10 hours a week,she was happy b/c she was seeing him more than when he lived with us!
So clearly his trying to get the extra night each week is to reduce child support. His rationale is to try to reduce the stress/switching homes for them each week, but then he is suggesting I have them Tuesday afternoons for activies they want to do, and then drop them off to him for the night. So that would be extra driving/switching for the kids. Makes no sense except it's really all about the $$$.
He was mentioning D9's math teacher said most couples do one week on and one week off! I have a feeling I'll be in court this next month for emergency hearing b/c X is going to try to insist on this, and I'm saying no. Do you think he'll be able to talk the judge into that. I mean from no overnights a year ago to this. Makes me sick....
He also emailed me that he finds it interesting that D9 has only wet herself at school after the nights she stays with me. I emailed him that would be interesting if true, but the first day she wet herself she had stayed the previous 2 nights with him. I told him but I'm sure it has nothing to do with staying with you and never would suggest that.
He said I've got them scheduled for so many activities they are exhausted or something. Yes, Terrific Tuesday on Tuesday, therapies on Thursday, and D9's art club on Friday. I refuse to just have her life be school and sleep. I emailed him that I am only scheduling activities and therapies on the nights I will have them, not on the nights he has them. He makes me sick!!!
