Does anyone ever feel like they’re the “default parent”?


I don’t know if this is just me, but my daughter’s father and I split up some time ago, and it feels like anytime that I need time to myself, I find myself asking my daughter’s father what works best for him when it comes to taking our daughter.This week he’s only having her for a day. ONE DAY. Because he is “busy”. And I’m just frustrated because if the roles were reversed I would be the one having to figure it out with absolutely no options, other than ask my parents to ruin their plans so I have someone to watch our daughter.He doesn’t think there’s an issue, and thinks because we’re not in a relationship I can’t dictate what he does with his time, even though this isn’t what I’m doing at all.Has anybody ever been in something similar? Was there a way to resolve the issue? I keep trying to talk to him about this and it’s getting nowhere, we don’t have a formal custody agreement and now I feel like this might be what is best. via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2YkFuyH
