[QUOTE="witzend, post: 75350, member: 99"] Mom to 3, I'm glad you wrote. I was feeling a little like the voice in the wilderness. I agree that courts, threats, and fights are a very poor way to set up visits. Jen and these people are never going to like each other or get along. I think two to three sentence certified letters are about the best they can do if they feel that they must pursue this. I told L's dad the same thing when L was about 8 and he had divorced her stepmom (he had custody.) I told him that if he [i]ever[/i] was uncooperative again, or tried to force me into a courtroom situation again, I would walk away. Mind you, he is a real Romeo, so he wanted his weekends free to cat around, so he didn't press it. Busywend, I was actually kind of shocked by your answer. Certainly these people are difficult and unpleasant. But it seems wrong to charge abuse and ask for custody when what has happened is actually an argument with you, and what you want is visitation.
