Hello,
I have a very complicated issue here. I relocated to Missouri from Wiscosin and failed to write a letter to the courts stating that I intended to move based on a verbal agreement with my ex husband and although we agreed that the move was acceptable and the ex husband stated that summer visitation was obviously going to work out best.
Since that time in November he has not seen his daughter but has since we started making the plans to come up this summer for the past four months verbally harrassing both my daughter who is 15 almost 16 years old now and trying to obtain her child support for the summer as he claims he will be paying child support twice if she doesn't have full access to it. We both have denied that he needs access to funds that are rightfully my daughters and he has now threatened court action because I did not send the letter of relocation to the courts when I should have and my daughter now refuses to speak to him on the phone because in the midst of the last call with him he asked if I wanted him to sign off on her then.
I am pretty sure that he does not really want to lose his daughter over less than $300 a month in child support but I cannot let this man force my child to move from where she is very happy and has alot of new friends and is doing extremely well in school as well as socially blossoming.
The school staff have even noted the changes in my daughter since we moved here and over half the staff is willing to write letters on her behalf stating the changes they each personally noted.
My daughter has also refused to go to Wisconsin for the summer months. Can she refuse at the age of 15 years almost 16 or do I have to force her to go?
What do I do here to maintain what is left of a tattered relationship between my daughter and her father and still protect her and keep us where she is doing so well?
Any advice would surely be appreciated.
