Hi dragongirl,
I was in a VERY SIMILAR situation. I was in the middle of divorce and continued custody hearings when My Ex was arrested for possesion with intent to distibute marijuana. I brought the matter to a final hearing before her trial, and since she was not "guilty" yet, then they did...
Unless you are named in the court order, I don't think you can be personally held accountable to it's terms. HE on the other hand should abide by the terms of the order.
Hi Kevin! I'm a custodial Dad myself, and have been for 12 years (Daughter is almost 13). I think you should get a private investigator to get proof of the drug abuse, and dig up infromation about the Ex's boy friend.
You might be surprized how easy it is to get dirt on someone. PI's can...
Speak with an attorney.
Usually, a temporary visitation hearing can happen in a few weeks, after which some sort of visitation schedule is started and the issue is sent to mediation. Supposing that everyone involved is normal, and there are no criminal records, abuse history, etc. then...
1. Mixing Med's without specific doctors prescription to do so is very dangerous.
2. Fear of being hit probably means that it has happened in the past.

4. Speaking with a GOOD attorney is ALWAYS a good idea.
AMEN! PILawGirl! "Know the Truth, and the Truth will set you free!"
Cherokee...I feel your pain man! I've ridden the "Woman's Court" system for almost 13 years now, and you're right. We men get no respect.

YES, Take a reporter with you on your next visitation. A television crew would be ideal! Bring supporters who know the whole story, and picket the DFCS facility while the reporter are there. Make BIG Signs "SET MY CHILDREN FREE". Publicity will make a difference.

I'm in Georgia, and know a little about custody issues.
I'm a custodial Dad, not that I'm taking his side at all !
I also know a little about the human mind, so trust me. :-)
Here's some things that you DEFINATELY should do IN THIS ORDER!
First thing Saturday Morning....

Childrens Advocacy from what I understand is a non-biased group who looks after the best interests of the children in custody and visitation disputes.
A little background information on ME.
I was accused of being a violent person by my ex when she filed for divorce.
However, I myself...
By allowing them to smoke in your home, you are condoning their actions.
I would suggest taking a trip to the coroners office to show them an actual smokers lung. That should do the trick. This is coming from a 20+ year addicted smoker who originally smoked to be "COOL" and didn't inhale.
From a father who went through the exact type of mental cruelty that you are putting on him, I hope you rot in that place which is reserved in the firey depths for all the women like you. YOU are the problem with our legal system when it comes to parental rights, and visitations. The Judge says...
