"why not let the lil man have two full xmas days? one day with you, the other day with him?" Because there's no way he will not want to have him at all Xmas day. And I need a few hours Boxing Day afternoon to see my nan. We usually go to my mums with my sister etc on Xmas day but obviously won't spend the whole day there if he's off with his dad for a bit x | |||

" Would it be fair of me to suggest he picks him up in the morning both days and brings him back around lunchtime so we get half the day each?? " What a strange system of time you have, half a day each? Really. Ever asked your kids if they'd like to spend some time with all of you together, civilly, at Christmas? It could make a huge difference to their future well-being. | |||

"Those of you with young kids that are seperated from your partners what are your arrangements for Xmas day?? My ex has Xmas day has Xmas day and Boxing Day as his 2 days off (from what I can figure out I've not asked him yet) he normally has our son from 9-5 on his 2nd day off which would be Boxing Day. But obviously he's going to want to have him Xmas day for a while too. Would it be fair of me to suggest he picks him up in the morning both days and brings him back around lunchtime so we get half the day each?? Not helped by the fact that my mother has signed me up to go to my Nan's Boxing Day afternoon with the rest of the family without asking me so now I'm trying to keep her happy as well!! It's a nightmare!!! This is the only part of Xmas I hate!!! X Your " x " & u get bac 2gether? problem solved? " Would solve the problem for 2 days but I'd rather have that than a lifetime of misery getting back together with that bellend!! | |||

X" Not knowing how things work with you If your son is old enough ask him what he prefer If on speaking terms with ex have a word to sort things out so it is fair on all concerned but most especially your son. Hope you solve it so everyone is happy especially your son | |||

What a strange system of time you have, half a day each? Really. Ever asked your kids if they'd like to spend some time with all of you together, civilly, at Christmas? It could make a huge difference to their future well-being. " To be honest after he tried to beat me up when I was 7 months pregnant i prefer not to be in the same room as him at all. He has his new girlfriend and her daughter this year and they have his family to visit. I prefer to spend time with my family and they wouldn't allow him in the house. | |||

That's why I thought that as we don't live too far away so transport isn't a problem that splitting the days down the middle will be better. As we both will want to spend time with him Xmas day. | |||

" I would have thought talking calmly to your ex is the way to start things and if that is not possible maybe you have a friend or family that can help bridge the gap. The main thing is that everyone wants to make it a special day for your son | |||
