Ex keeps changing pickup times last minute and it's killing me
This has been happening for 3 weeks now. I'll plan my whole day around picking up the kids at 5pm on Thursday and she'll text me at 4:30 saying she needs me at 3pm instead or won't be ready until 7. I work in an office so I can't just leave whenever. I've asked her nicely multiple times to stick to the schedule we agreed on but nothing changes. How do I handle this without being the bad guy? My lawyer said to document everything but that feels petty when it's about my kids.
I feel this pain. My ex used to do the same thing and it made work impossible. You might need to loop in your custody agreement enforcement or mediation if she won't respect the original schedule. Not fun but sometimes necessary.
