"You can't make him..."
Husband emailed The Ex all the way back in June about Son wanting to play football. The court order reads that if a specific response is not made within 48 hours, it will be considered agreeing to the activity that the other parent is proposing. The Ex did not respond to the email, thereby agreeing that Son could play football. In the middle of June, Son was at our house for a weekend and said, "I can't wait for football to start. When's my first practice?" We told Son that we weren't sure yet; we would get the information soon enough and once we had it, we'd tell him. On the Tuesday after Son said he couldn't wait for football to start, we talked to the coach and he said the camp would be starting on Monday. Husband sent The Ex an email saying that Son would need to be in School City by 3:30pm on Monday with a pair of cleats. Husband said he wasn't sure if The Ex would have to work overtime so she could drop off Son on Sunday...
