Hi, please bear with me, relatively new to the boards and this could be a long post!
My DH has a 13yo DD, he is divorced from her mum. They split long before I came on the scene and as far as I'm aware it wasn't particularly amicable.
DH works shifts (as did his ex at the time) but he did get access of one night a week and a day at the weekend. Ex has a time consuming hobby so he took that into account when sorting access. DD has since got into same hobby.
DH let the access 'slide' as in the the fact he didn't demand one night and a weekend if it clashed with hobby as he thought in the long run that would be the fairest for DD, he didn't want to spoil her hobby or cause unecessary arguments just to be a 'twat'
This however has now backfired as we never get to see DD.
DH has tried texting, phoning, emailing to keep in touch but gets no response. His ex says it's up to DD to make the decision, (we don't think she's old enough just yet but that's not really the point I suppose) then in the next breath says, DD is disppointed she doesn't see you and that you've not been in touch!! He has been in touch, he gets ignored, Other than him turning up on the doorstep I'm not sure what else he can do??
So, my question is - can he get the previous access rights reinstated? Do they still stand, or are they null and void because he didn't stick to them rididly becuase he thought he was doing the right thing by being flexible?
thanks
