Need help creating a parenting plan?

Questioner

My ex and I have been separated for more than 4 years, my 12-year-old son is registered with her and she also receives all allowances. Since February 1, my son is with me during the week and he goes to hers on Friday evenings and on Sunday evenings he comes to me again, but he is also often with me on the weekends, I also pay for his sports and swimming lessons and basically everything he needs because she cannot take care of him financially and mentally. Now I have had a parenting plan drawn up, but she does not want to cooperate because then I will receive the allowances and she absolutely does not want that. She also does not want him to be registered with me because then she would have to go to work for the social services, she is under guardianship herself, I have spoken to them but I have not gotten any further there either. What can I do to ensure that the parenting plan is signed after all.

Lawyer

If your ex-partner refuses to cooperate with the parenting plan, you can hire a lawyer to help you start a lawsuit. The judge can then decide which agreements should be included in the parenting plan and whether the child should be registered with you. However, it is important to realize that litigation can be a lengthy and costly process and that it is better to first try to resolve the issue through mediation.
