I don't think it is an unreasonable expectation. It is more of a common courtesy that one would hope for while dealing with a reasonable adult. smirk

That being said, I think the way you communicate this request to your W will determine if you are being controlling.

Perhaps something to the effect of:
"W, can you do me a favor and communicate directly with me when you plan on dropping and picking S up? I would like to be clear to ensure that he is ready when you arrive to pick him up and to ensure that I am home when you drop him off."

I don't know. Maybe that is too much.
