Need Custody Lawyer - ASAP

I disagree...

marriage is nothing but heartache and hell. kids kick ass.
...with that. The good parts of marriage, the good days, are fabulous and beat, by miles, the bad days with kids. Kids are horrible, trying, useless creatures quite often.

There is much heartache and much joy in both.

This is why I don't want to get married or have kids. 9 out of 10 times men get the shaft in such a situation.
See the few women with some sanity and rationale in this thread? I'd say go after them, but they're all married. Guess you'll have to wait for someone to get divorced.

if i called the police every thime my ex called to say she wasn't going to be home on time with my son the police would have arrested me for harrasing them.

Fact of the matter is, shiat happens, you have to be willing to be flexible.

I am sure the conversation would have been different if she had been resonable when he called to let her know he was going to be late.
Say it's not so, some woman couldn't put up with your charming banter and sardonic wit. What was she, a retarded cousin whose mother didn't think she could do any better? (the retarded cousin apparently thought he could)

Well according to the court order, he really does need to "ask" permission to deviate from the order. He doesn't call the shots, his ex-wife does. She has primary custody, not him.
If it isn't too much to ask can you post the actual words from the court documents?

My divorce decree specifies that me and my ex j=have joint custody with her being the primary care provider but that I am to have liberal visitation rights.

Meaning if I needed another day or 4 that would be within my rights...

Of course this never came up with us but the documents stated as such..

Yes, he does have a habit of doing this but never downright refusing to return the children. He has been hours late, etc. There is alot more to this story that has been going on, but the main thing is that there is a court order for him to return the children and he will not. I am all for mothers/fathers wanting to spend quality time with their children but he never requested extra time and had he of, with appropriate notification, I am sure she would have given it to him.
Were you listening in on what I am sure were a few phone calls or are you getting this 2nd hand from your girl?? Because if is the later you are only hearing one side and if your girl was being a biatch she isn't gonna tell you that..

Given that information, it does seem to be that he is playing games.
Children should not be used as pawns and she should be doing exactly what she's doing now. I personally would use this as basis for supervised visitation only.
Wow you really got alot out of only one side of the communication that was going on.

Based on what you wrote you would be a part of the problem rather than part of a solution.

True, too harsh. But how do you guarantee he won't/can't do this again.
If I got this same phone call I'd be a wreck until I get my kids back. I wouldn't want to let them out of my sight again.

Sounds your life experience talking but the truth is that this man may be a good father and something came up and he is gonna return "HIS" children later than expected. Point being we all have different life experiences and if the children are safe with him than I would think there would be no reason to freak out??

regardless of a court order, a father shouldn't have to "ask" to spend more time with his kids...he can "inform" her...and that's what he did.
she's buggin for some other reason we dont know about. If it was really serious (which I dont think it is) she would've called the police before even going to court.

The police would've asked for the court order and see if he is outside of his schedule...if so they would've issued a warrant for his arrest...and upon arriving back into MD he would've been arrested.

Now why cause all that drama just because he wanted an extra day or so for the kids?
Are you effin serious? Obviously he doesn't have custody and obviously their IS a court order. He DOES have to bring them back and shouldn't INFORM her he should have ASKED.

An extra day or so? He didn't ask for an extra day or so, he just didn't bring them home.

What if Mom had plans and decided to just keep the kids even though it was Dad's time? Would that be right?

the guy called to be curteous and let her know he was going to be late.....


now take your fat, its a wonder how you ever got knocked up, ugly azz on to a topic you might know something about.....:whistle:
He didn't call to say he was going to be late. He said he wasn't bringing them home. Courteous would him having asked first.
