visitation problems

im recently separated and have sole custody of my three kids......my ex has great visitation which includes tuesday and thursday 4 to 7 for dinner and every other weekend friday to sunday extended if there is a holiday..... my issue is that he is always late by 1/2 hour or more for pick up and he almost always brings them home early,last night it was 45mins early..... my kids love seeing there dad but are disappointed by him all of the time...we only agreed to the custody this June so its still early... do I give him a longer chance to prove himself or do I go and have the order changed to spare my children the crap that he keeps pulling.... I do not want to prevent him from seeing his kids, I just want to protect them....

thank you for your response.... if only my stbx and i could talk.. he is very angry and bitter and does all this despite me, we actually have to communicate thru a log book. He still will belittle me and make sarcastic comments thru that... i would love to just let him lose the visitation but thats what he wants.... he doesnt care about his kids... shame really, hopefully they will see that in a few years...
