I have 2 kids from a prior marriage. They are 11 and 15. I have full legal custody, with their dad having visitation. According to the papers, he can have them Monday or Tuesday, plus Thursday of each week. These orders went into effect when the kids were still preschool age. Now that they're older, and involved in sports and school activities, I've been letting him have them on weekends, as long as we had no plans. They went 3 days a week all summer. Thing is, now if they have plans and want to do something on the weekend, he tells them they don't love him, and threatens them about Christmas. He's an alcoholic, has no car, and has his skanky girlfriend (not just my opinion) spends the night, even when the kids are there. If the kids don't call him every single evening, or they call him and he thinks they should have called earlier, he goes ballistic on them. If they are at his house for the weekend, he won't let them go anywhere, nor does he take them anywhere.
