Texas Extended Standard Possession Orders. Specifically Asking About Holidays.

Card image cap

Hi all, I’m a little confused after signing the final order agreement. So I read that the orders specify thanksgiving, Christmas, mothers/father’s Day, spring break, summer, and child’s birthday. BUT I’m confused about all of the other majorish holidays throughout the year, mainly the ones throughout the school year. So like Easter, memorial/ Labor Day weekend, and any others I might be forgetting. My co parents is under the impression that we’re supposed to switch off those holidays as well but I can’t see anything in the paperwork stating that.

Easter this year falls on the first weekend of the month, so technically in my mind he is supposed to have my child since it’s his weekend to have my child. But at the same time is trying to say it’s my weekend to have my child since he had my child for spring break. So now I’m confused. I know that he’s a big “paper guy” so if it isn’t stated in the paperwork he will not follow it. Other holidays outside the ones I mentioned up top aren’t specified in the paperwork. I feel like he’s just trying to make me feel guilty for not having my child this weekend or possibly even trying to get me in trouble for possibly withholding our child. He’s a very manipulative person so I can absolutely see him doing something like that but honestly I just need answers.

To sum everything up, are we supposed to switch off school holidays or is he just trying to start something and basically guilt trip me?
