Holiday schedule negotiation getting heated
So my ex wants Christmas Eve this year because she "always" had it, but we never actually put that in the custody agreement. Our kids are 8 and 5, and I've been doing Christmas Eve with them since the split 2 years ago. She's now saying it's "emotionally important" to her tradition and threatening to take it to court. Ngl this feels like a power move after I asked about switching Thanksgiving. Has anyone dealt with this? Do courts actually care about tradition or just what's in the paperwork?
This is why people need to put this stuff in writing BEFORE it becomes a problem. That said, what's your actual custody split? Might be worth alternating years
