Ex - wants to have one Child at a time - to 'bond'

[James Woking]

Question on behalf on of my Daughter who is recently separated (2 months).
They've agreed he should see their 2 children (7 and 10) one day at the weekend (alternating sat and sun) and after he's home from work on Tuesday and Thursday with his parents collecting from school. That would be ok, however he is now saying he wants to see one child on Tuesday and the other on Thursday - so as he can 'bond' with them.
My daughter doesn't want that as she feels she will be being used as a babysitter for the other child and has suggested if he want's time individually with a child then he should get his parents to babysit the other child. But he's not happy with this as they don't get on too well with his parents.
Can she legally say that he must take both children?

[atticus]

They should find something that works for them rather than rush headlong into conflict and worse.

Yes, she can say that. Whether a judge will agree is a very different question.

Remember the cardinal principle of all law relating to children: the interests of the child are paramount. The children come first, and the adults should act like grown ups.

Above all they should put aside all backwash from the separation, and ask what can wr acree for the benefit of the children.
