Ok, I do not live in missouri where my daughter is, currently I am enlisted into the United States Marine Corps on active duty in north carolina.
Here is my problem, both me and the mother agreed to seperate back in february of 2009. I deployed the end of 2009 and came back in may of 2010, been in divorce process ever since then. I wanted an agreement to be reached on our parenting plans but she keeps changing things up and making it real difficult, wanting more money for me to pay for everything child care health care, she even wants to claim her on her taxes every signle year, however she has not had a job since end of july, 2010. And she cant even find one right now. I was wondering what are my chances going to be of me getting custody of my daughter (all i want is joint but i want to be the primary caregiver). I am getting out of the military in another month and a half. I don't know if there is any other information i can give to help come up with an answer but if you have questions i will pay very close attention to this.
Currently I am paying her 360 a month in child support and after i pay the child support i end up making about 650 every 2 weeks, so about 1300 a month.
I appreciate everyone taking their time to read this, i already have a lawyer, however he is saying that her not having any income makes no difference to the court.
