Can 2 parents have shared custody but 1 parent spends more time with the children?
Monday, September 28th, 2009It is called shared physical custody, but mother spends 4 days a week and father 3 days a week with the children. Is this workable?
yes this is what we do and it works fine. he gets the baby on tuesdays and weekends ( i work every weekend) so his 3 days are just as good as my 4 since he has the weekend so more time for fun! anything can work as long as you are both reasonable and treat each other with respect.

I have a question on child custody rights?
Friday, September 25th, 2009My x girlfriend is 2 months pregnant and we live in the state of arizona. We recently broke up and she is threatening to leave to chicago. What rights do I have in stopping her or how do I obtain joint custody if she does in fact move?
FIRST, YOU’RE IN THE ONLY STATE WHERE YOU HAVE ANY PRESUMED RIGHTS AS A SINGLE FATHER.
I just called a paralegal in Arizona in the fathers rights movement. At this point, you’re out of luck. She can move while pregnant and there’s little you can do. In Illinois, you will have no rights to the child until granted them by a court. Talk to Attorney Jeffery Leving in Chicago about filing there. He’s a bit of a pompous a**, but he knows his stuff on fathers rights.
I would suggest that you seriously consider moving there yourself, but without telling her until after the case is filed next Fall. That will prevent her from moving again. If you move there, keep an Arizona cell phone for when she calls you. Don’t stalk her, threaten her, or text her. As long as she lives in Arizona, you can record your conversations with her without her knowing it. If she moves, you can only record if you call her, but not if she calls you. It’s legal there, but not in Illinois. Start keeping a daily journal.
Go to Dads House to learn more about your rights and how to fight for them.

Child custody in California….?
Friday, September 25th, 2009I filed a motion in March 09 to change custody and visitation of my son (age 7) since our divorce in 05 due to some domestic violence that has gone on with my son’s dad and his new wife ( not the only time it’s happened i found out after filing that its been going on and that there is holes in the wall at their apartment on my son’s door ) I have proof of the most recent event because his wife sent me a text message with what happened and confirmed our son was in fact in the house during their altercation, heard and saw everything. At our last court date I was ordered to pay him child support because I make more than he does and they don’t include his wife’s income and it didn’t matter that I have our son 56% and he has him 46%. We had a mediation set on July 13th but it got moved because the mediator was taking a medical leave. We were offered July 8th I accepted and he declined because he said he couldn’t make it. Now our mediation is set for August 27th. More time my son has to be in that house with them. I don’t know what goes on in there. I don’t want my son put in the middle but I asked my son once since the mediation date change if he has seen any fighting like hitting and cussing and he said "my dad told me to say i’m just a child". This is killing me!!!!!!!! any advice
* Extra * I was sent to an orientation on Domestic Violence and was sent a work sheet to fill out. I didn’t realize at the time but he did somethings they consider domestic violence. I answered the work sheet honestly and true. He never hit me but a few days after we seperated he called my phone more than 100 times using a disguised voice threating that we will be waiting outside my apartment for me. I asked my ex about this at the time and he admitted it was him and then said he was going to kill himself. I’m not going to get into all of it but what are my chances of winning this case?
Even if his wife doesn’t stand up and admitt to it. I have the text messages saved and my son witnessed it doesn’t that count for something?
My question is "where is your Son living now that you have to pay child support? You will have to prove that you are "fit" to have the child and that is "domestic violence" going on in your ex’s home.
It cannot be "word of mouth" but actual proof.
His wife is going to have to stand up in court and say that there is domestic violence occurring in the home.
I lived in CA and was physically abused but won custody and my kids and had to PROVE that my Husband was abusive even though I had police records with me and his hand was in a cast. I had to get on the stand and tell things "verbatim" to the court. They wanted to "hear it" from my mouth.
You need to get with Social Services and discuss this and see if you can possibly get with someone from Women’s Services to work with you so that you have a better chance on winning this case.
It sounds like he is "coaching" you Son and you don’t know how that will play out in court either.
Please get legal help…do NOT rely on a mediator because they are just a "helper" and you need more than that.
Get help BEFORE you walk into the mediator. Be PREPARED. You will probably win if you are prepared.
Good luck.
Peace, Love & Happiness

Child custody: Do you and your ex have joint custody (a 50/50 arrangement) and how is that working out?
Tuesday, September 22nd, 2009If you’re not divorced nor contemplating divorce, kindly do not respond.
Thank you and have a nice day…
We do have joint custody, but our 10 y/o spends about 60% with me and the rest with her dad. We have a 2 week schedule:
week 1: mo-tu-wed with mom, wed (before dinner) to dad, thu-fri with dad, fri (before dinner) to mom, weekend with mom
week 2: mo-tu-wed with mom, wed (before dinner) to dad, thu-fri with dad, weekend with dad, sunday evening (before dinner) to mom.
We split the holidays in good agreement.
Sounds complicated but isn’t all that hard. You should both be able to put petty little arguments aside and focus on the child’s interest. She found it a little confusing in the beginning, but now it’s ok. She finds it hard to be away from either of us longer then 5 days anyway. That’s why we don’t take her on holidays longer then a week (yet).
Personally I love it when she’s with me, but I also love my "free time" when she’s with her daddy.
