How do I best document behaviour from my ex that is designed to interfere with my contact with our girls.
I mean things like the kids not being home on the night that I am to pick them up (she arranged for them to have a sleep-over with friends that night).
Or not allowing the girls to answer the phone when I call, or hurrying the girls to finish talking to me on the phone (in less than 30 seconds) because they are always allegedly in a hurry for one thing or another.
Or when the girls are with me, the mother gives the girls all this apparent home work (not real home work, but reading certain books), which stresses the girls out and they refuse to even go to the shops with me for fear that they will not finish the book reading.
It is not a matter of one big thing, but numerous little things that undermine my relationship with my kids. I basically have no say with my girls, regardless of whether they are will me or with their mother.
However I find it difficult to document these issues. Should I try and take photos or record audio?
Should I simply write it down like diary entries?
Which way would a court prefer such issues to be documented for the purposes of being used as evidence?
