Hi, every year I have this headache. I have sole physical custoday, joint leagal custody. on divorce decree, I have to obtain his written consent if children travel abroad.
the father moved away from the children to FL a couple years ago, never sees them on regular basis. my boys are 6 & 8, for past two years I sent them overseas to live with my family for 2 months in summer, so they can learn their 2nd language and culture, the boys had great time and learnt a lot. To have peace in this consent issue, I offered him to fly the boys to see the father on the years they travel. because he didn't have to spend any money to see the boys, he was happy and agreed.
This year, he wants to see the boys for a month in summer, and only allowed the kids to spend one month abroad ( which I have to pay $5000 for the trip). Even though the divorce decree didn't grant him one month visitation in summer, I'm afraid of his calling passport checking at airport to stop the children from going.
I really wants to remove this consent to travel from the divorce decree, remove his right to consent the passport, remove his right to call passport checking. ( He did once several years ago just to control me and forgot about it, that year even he okayed for the boys to go and signed the passport application, I still couldn't get the passports.)
any possibility to remove these? how should I do it?
more info -- he is alcholic, has job off and on, DUI before. I have steady job for many years, own a house, no any issue.
thanks in advance.
