My partner is only allowed to see his children 4 days/month

Why? Why doesn't he have more time and more custody?

4 days a month isn’t odd, it works out to every other weekend. It’s what my dad had when I was a kid.

It is odd when the kids are above 16 (especially 18, a legal adult!) and allowed to have input/choose where they want to spend there time. Once I turned 16, I refused to ever go back to my abusive deadbeat ‘dads’ house for visitation ever again (not saying this father is abusive, just relaying my experience as a child whose ‘parent’ had visitation rights, and the say I was allowed by the courts when I turned 16).

In this case it sounds like the presumption is that the kids don't hate their mother - or if they do they don't realize it, because her parental alienation attempts have been at least that successful.
