Conflicts with ex spouses

Submitted by Brooke de Lench on Sun, 05/18/2008 - 20:10.
Your ex wants to take your child away for the weekend. This means that he will miss his baseball game. She is not interested and insists that it is "her weekend" to take the kids. Has this happened to you or has something else come between your child and his sports because of custody rules?

This is such a sad

This is such a sad situation. The ex-spouses should get together before signing the kid up and set some rules for play. If the kid can only make every other weekend, it's better to not have them play. Sports is one area where the kid can have some normalcy and structure, yet one parent is going to force them to miss half the games. If that's a problem, find leagues or activities where they play during the week, so the weekends are free for visitation.

Difference of opinions

A question for any single parents-

Agree, the player needs some

Agree, the player needs some time off. Better yet, get them involved in another sport. Unless they are olympic calliber, no athlete should spend more than 8 months a year playing one sport.

down time

Patricia,

You are right in thinking that your daughter needs at least some down time.

Competition within the competition

Submitted by TeddysMomma on Thu, 07/10/2008 - 16:50.

I am a single mom, who keeps competing with my ex husband, because he feels our son should be in every sport activity. My son is only 5 years old and just started kindergarten. Also, he has had some trouble with school, so I wanted to wait until he was comfortable with his schooling. The sports that he wants to get him involved with is soccer and karate, which are not sports that are at his school. I ask my son if he wanted to join and he doesn't, but I cannot tell my ex no, because he uses it against me in court. Is there any suggestions on what I can do?
