My family law final hearing is in a couple of months. The judge made orders requiring the parties to file a number of documents including precise final orders.
I am really trying to work out what I should ask for in terms of time with the kids, and hope for some feedback from others if possible.
The issue is that they live across the country, and for them to spend time with me involves a 4-hour drive and a 5-hour flight.
Is it unreasonable in those circumstances for me to ask for the kids to visit me every school holidays (ie 4 times a year)? I am worried that the judge will think the travel is too onerous (although the ex has never raised this, she has a new lawyer and I wonder if she will come up with it in her final affidavit).
Kids are 10 and 12.
