Jon's papers alleged that the Kate Plus 8 star would rather leave their 14-year-old twins, Madelyn and Cara, and 10-year-old sextuplets Aaden, Collin, Joel, Leah, Alexis and Hannah with a teen nanny than him.
'Father has requested that he be given the option of caring for the children when Mother is unable to care for the children overnight during her custodial time,' the 37-year-old's lawyers claimed. 'Mother has refused to agree to this request.
'Recently, Mother traveled with the two older children for six days and left the six younger children in the care of a 19-year-old babysitter.
Concerned father: Jon filed the papers to get more access to the children he shares with Kate, 14-year-old twins Madelyn and Cara and 10-year-old sextuplets Aaden, Collin, Joel, Leah, Alexis and Hannah
'Father was available, however, Mother refused to let the children stay with Father and/or allow Father to stay in her home with the children.'
Jon also alleged that he wasn’t allowed to speak with his children over the phone when they were in the nanny’s care.
The documents continued: 'Mother has also instructed her babysitters that they are not to contact Father and/or provide Father with any information and/or accept phone calls from Father,' according to Radar.
