Ex won't stick to custody schedule anymore
So my ex has been texting me last minute saying she needs to switch weekends pretty much every other week now. At first I was trying to be flexible but its getting ridiculous. Last month she switched 6 times. I have plans with my kids, I set aside the time, and then I get a text on Friday saying 'actually can I take them this weekend instead'. I asked her why shes doing this and she just said her new boyfriend has a busy schedule. I dont want to be that guy but I also have a life and my kids need consistency. Do I need to go back to court or should I try talking to her first?
You need to set a boundary here. Every other weekend flipping is chaos for your son and honestly for you too. I'd suggest putting it in writing that you can't accommodate last minute changes unless it's an emergency.
