If you are genuinely concerned and have reason to believe he isn't looking after them, they are distressed and not coping etc then yes go get them

If it's not that bad and they are just bored or whatever then like you said - its only a few days, surely they could cope knowing they'll be home soon

No one but you knows whats best at the end of the day!

if he is in tears and wants to come home, go for him.

you will know him better than anyone, if he is likely to try and play one against the other.... have the chat

good luck

When your boy is tired but with you does someone come and take him ?

Maybe, if you haven't already, advise your ex that he seems to need a good nights sleep as he gets a bit grouchy when he's tired.

This will go on forever, can't go worrying now. So long as they are safe then as much as it hurts leave it be. So difficult with separations and kids will always be the stumbling block. Good luck its never easy but work hard and happiness will be yours and most importantly for your children x

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound

How would you feel if when your son is back with you he decides to call his father in tears when he is tired and his father then turns up and whisks him away for some time away from you?

Your children are lucky enough to have two parents. They deserve to have the normal good and bad moments with both parents. As their father he deserves to have happy and grouchy kids issues to deal with and to figure out how to handle.

if you go, your son has won, and it just reinforces his control or manipulation of you, this isn't about safety, its about a child playing one parent off against the other
