Every sitch is different. My xh complained that I didn't "intervene" on his behalf. That is something I'm unwilling to do a 180 on. His R with the kids is his. He also "just wanted to see the kids" so parenting time is not top priority for him. As a matter of fact, his activities and gf take precedent over the kids. That's his deal and his alone. This may change over time or it may not. I have no clue.
I see postings where some have suggested you *make * the other parent step up. Just from my own experience (and each sitch is different), my xh is not fond of hearing parenting suggestions from me, so I leave that alone. It also depends on your kids and the sitch. Again, it can all change. I'm just saying that things aren't always cut and dry.
Thanks!
