@dsweats81 What would you suggest someone do when the courts aren't taken the protection of children seriously? Many narcissistic parents enjoy the whole circus of dragging parents to court over and over, trying to get more and more, putting on a facade about how they care so much about...

@dsweats81 50/50 custody is given all of the time to abusive parents where there either wasn't enough "proof" of their well-hidden and veiled abuse or when their impact on the kids haven't yet met the level of no return. That's usually when agencies will come in a finallyyy do something about...

@dsweats81 Court is not the answer for protective parents. The offending parent often gets more time than they should when random judges are in charge of custody decisons, and make choices on adult fairness rather than what the child actually needs. Proof of impact is not always easy to get...

@pangurban He has them 50% of the time, not 4 times a month.

@spookydawg77 OP, I would suggest keeping really good documentation of everything that is occurring pertaining to what he's saying to your kids, what they're bearing witness to, and of any patterns of behavior that you are seeing in the kids. Are they appearing to be more anxious? Have they...

@spookydawg77 Okay, let's take OP's case. There's already one ACE--separation of the kids' biological parents. A second ACE is the emotional abuse that she suspects is occurring with the kids directly. She stated that he is telling his kids that their mother is trying to get him put into jail...

@spookydawg77 Research shows that adverse childhood experiences are correlated with poor outcomes (including medical, psychological, mental, academic, and occupational outcomes) Examples of ACE's are exposure to forms of abuse (either witnessed or experienced), exposure to domestic violence in...

@saveoursoul The partner's thoughts should not be in any texts or any parts of the conversation you're having with the father of your child. He accepted being with someone who has a child, and now he has to accept that the biological parents are still in some sort of union with each other for 18...

@vescd It sounds like your girlfriend is more concerned with trying to "secure her place" than she is with what your son may enjoy. She sounds like the type who will be in a secret competition with your ex for your son's affection, and for who has the image of being a "better parent". She needs...

@sheron86 This. right. here. Your former friend, a person you thought you could trust, may use court to terrorize you and stay relevant in your life, especially if you are detaching from him and his airiness. He may try to uproot the child's routine and punish you for setting boundaries and...

@kimberl321 Be careful OP. He sounds like someone with no integrity. Someone who's fickle. Once the courts are involved, he may start asking for more, like 50/50, even if his schedule isn't conducive for it. As he and his fiance moves forward, he may feel that he wants to play family with her...
