Coparent

My child’s dad, since we’ve separated has not been that involved with our child. He only asks to see him when he legit only has 20 minutes. But, last night he sent me a text saying I’m picking up the child tomorrow thank you.
But my son’s ill and I’m really not comfortable him just taking him because I do also have safety concerns.

Can he just demand that he’d coming and picks him up? This has seriously given me serve anxiety.
Thank you

He hardly spent time with us when we lived together he always wanted to go out and do his own stuff and then he worked unsociable hours and worked away 😭

If he's ill I don't think he just take him like that say he's ill and it's advisable that he doesn't travel and that if you're comfortable with him coming over he can see him there or outside somewhere near your home. Do you feel he lacks awareness?

100%. Whenever he was sick and he lived with us, he’s the dad that’s like “he’ll be fine, just leave him”, and would shout at me for being “over paranoid” when he had a fever of 38.3 and I asked him to come home from work to take us drs he refused. And hospital advised us not to have contact with anyone else for a few days and I said this but he doesn’t think he should listen because it’s just an Illness he’ll be fine

No. You’re the mother and if he wants to moan about it then let him. Can’t just pick and choose when he wants to see him
