[QUOTE="buddy, post: 561262, member: 12886"] A decision would not be made I'm sure, just by who has more money....the important thing is that he has food, housing, clothing, a safe/loving home. If poor people lost their children there would be millions and millions of kids not living at home. And your income is not even low (I get it is not easy at that level though...I too am a single mom with an income that is not high enough to let you breathe easy but not low enough for any assistance) Sure, he could ask for more visiting time...he seems to live so far though that it would be unreasonable for a child to have to go to school from that far away. The whole child protection thing? I think a lot of judges lose their tempers and have little patience for people who obviously use the system to manipulate things. I hope you get a judge who can see thru that and I hope that it ends up biting him in the behind. We have members here who have had good judges who have done the right thing but the process along the way was clearly very very stressful. The bottom line is that the child is stuck in the middle and they will watch closely who has a child's best interest at heart. You have shown really good faith in your sharing of visits and are making a perfectly reasonable offer. I know there is no way to say dont worry...it is too huge an issue....but your ex sounds manipulative and emotionally abusive to you in doing this kind of thing and it reflects more on his poor character than anything in your life. HUGS, I have no advice except to listen to those who have been there, get advice and legal help if you possibly can, and just continue to be a great mom. People do say that documenting every single email, phone message, text message, including log anything he says or does so there is a long standing record is important. Keep on sharing and venting your anxiety here. I hope it helps you as much as these women help me. [/QUOTE]
