Drop offs

[SamC1811]

I am looking for some advice, my ex is saying it is up to me to drop off and pick up our son but I don’t think this is the case.  I have an injunction against him as he was emotionally abusive but I don’t see why I should be the one doing the running around??

Hi sam ,  It is down to your ex partner to pick up and drop off your son. In situations where mum and dad are co-parenting then this is sometimes done by both by agreement

Depends what’s in it for you.If there’s no legal thing you have to stick to you should be free to do what you like😉

It’s a 14 miles round trip and I am doing both but I don’t really want to be. As it’s costing me money and causing anxiety

my kids live with their mum. I’m doing same 14 miles round trip to pick up and drop off. been doing it for 2 years so far. ex doesn’t drive. and she wouldn’t be interested in helping out.

To try and avoid conflict maybe you could email / message and say you will do drop offs and pick ups until end of february so he will still be seeing children and is also pre-warned. March you would then no longer be doing any drop offs or pick ups and he will have to do them all.  You could do them from home or at a neutral place if not possible  i.e supermarket car park etc

Whilst you asking your ex to do all drop off and pick ups it maybe on odd occasion that in future you still do a few now and again.
