So are you saying that I shouldn't bring this up until I secure a job and have more of a schedule?
IMO - the first question you need to ask is what is best for you DD. The fact that you do not have a set schedule would mean that you would go back to your H and ask to change it.
So before I continue to answer this question let me ask you a few..
1) How often does your H see his D? 2) How are you doing on the job front? Any good prospects? 3) In terms of employment, what type of work and hours are you expecting to have? 4) Is your H capable of taking care of your DD? Has he done this in the past? 5) You indicate that you are back in the home. Is he covering all of the expenses? If so, do you at least have some sort of disposable income for yourself? 6) How far does your H live from you? 7) Does your H's job enable him to take D during the week?
As a father I can only tell you that IMO your D needs her daddy. It looks like you are tying to do the right thing, which I commend you for.
BTW - no need to tell him you are standing for your M. This is something that you just do. Action my friend speak louder than words.
Finally, I know that you are standing for your M. Do you know if H has accumulated debt? If so, you need to keep an eye on this.
God Bless, Eric
