Who is supposed to supervise? Who is supposed to pick up/drop off the child for visitation?

Are there police reports documenting the abuse? How will she prove abuse? Married parents have equal rights to their children until a court says otherwise. So, yes, he does.

The bolded part is a HUGE problem for you, and IMO will affect any legal action you attempt.

If you're hoping to void the divorce, I don't think that would do it. Check with your lawyer to be sure. Is your ex not following the terms of the divorce decree?

Since you aren't divorced yet and there are no custody orders, the bolded part is BS. Legally, you have equal rights to the children until a court says otherwise. HOWEVER, having no custody orders also makes it easier for him to keep you from the children. IMO, you really, really NEED to...

I agree with Proserpina. You may very well end up paying child support to dad. You absolutely need a lawyer, even if you can't afford one. Borrow from family, try to work out a payment plan, but do something. I think, if you had a lawyer, you would already have a temporary custody order...

One can never say how a judge will rule. IMO, you've done quite a bit to make sure the dad has reasonable phone access, and your printout of the calls shows that. I agree that a daily call at a given time is unreasonable. If your kids are involved in any sports or other activities, you might...

Among all the forms that you signed in order to obtain the divorce, there is, or should be, one that states that you and your ex waive the 2 year separation requirement, and that you have been separated for 6 months. The date of separation would also be noted on the form. If your ex skirted...

Maybe someone else will search out any applicable statutes, but I'm not. I doubt that there are any. Here's how I see the situation: You found a dog, then you gave it to the animal shelter. You gave up any rights you might have had when you did that. Now, if you want the dog back, you'll...

The reason for the tennis lessons is irrelevant in the court's eyes. The point is that one parent should not make plans for the child during the other parent's time without that parent's agreement. That goes both ways, for the CP and the NCP. I understand, and I agree that some mothers let the...

This is a 2 year old thread.

Ddub is our 'resident Canadian' I think, but I haven't seen him in a while. I say, go ahead and give him the US version, with the caveat that things may be a bit different in BC, so he needs to consult with an attorney. :)

I'm so confused....:confused: Okay, I didn't see anything about a telephone conference, but maybe I missed something. OP, why are you asking about Title IV-D? Truthfully, I don't see anything in your post that will change custody of your son. Most of the concerns you have would be...

I think ANY judge would be irritated if you take the mother to court for missing one day, albeit Mother's Day.

No, he can't do that unless there's a step-parent who will adopt. I hope he doesn't say these things so the children can hear!

I wouldn't offer any compromise unless your ex can show a change of circumstance besides a higher child support obligation. In fact, I'd let him know that you intend to request that he pay your legal fees for any custody action he files.
