Judges - do they really care?

StepG's picture

Our lawyer called today and she has received the counter suit/complaint from BM's lawyer about us asking for 50/50 time. I am anxious to see what she has in her complaint. The lawyer said of course we will not like what she has to say but she is getting them into the mail to us so we will be getting them before weeks end.

drafting the Custody agreement document--

So I've been helping F pull together documents for upcoming meeting with lawyer, under the idea that the more we do ahead of time the less we're doing at 250 an hour.

Filling out the "custody agreement" document, not like she's going to sign it or anything, but it's a starting point right? This became F's personal "wish list" for custody, and actually ended up being pretty fun to talk through for both of us....

The parties agree that:

The custody of the children shall be as follows:

Legal custody:
will be granted to father

Another email "from SS" last night

Dad I guess you aren't going to email me back. My head is still hurting from this stress you are causing. I'm going to bed in 5 minutes and don't want to talk to you except through an email. You are hurting me bad and pushing me away big time. At least my mom cares about my feelings!

SS

Of course "he" only wants to talk to BF through email...so that BM can respond and pretend to be SS and say what SHE feels but try to make it sound like it's coming from SS.

Poor BF

BF got an email from BM asking him to call her and speak to SS. Well, how is he supposed to call when she doesn't have a phone? So he called BM's parents' house and asked if she was around. BM's mother said no...which started into a 20 minute conversation on BM's mother's opinion on how BF shouldn't "take SS from BM". She kept saying that SS has always been taken care of. Yes, maybe by them, but not by BM.

21 going on 6

Although their birthday involved a family camping trip that ended up in a huge family fight, future sd's and ss with his spouse and two young kids, once again poor twins, they feel so sad never get included god forbid the future stepgrandkids want me to pick them up! causes a reaction that was like a 6 year old throwing a tantrum.

Is he faking?

I'm pretty frustrated today w/ SS. He has an ulcer in his mouth. I have had ulcers many times and know that they bring a special brand of pain. HOWEVER for the last two days, literally ALL DAY LONG he has been sobbing, gulping air, snot running down his face and wailing about how much it hurts. At first I was being very accommodating until I realized that he was complaining of pain in different body parts - tooth, ulcer spot, stomach and the crying got out of control each time he was asked to complete his normal every day chores or activities.

First communication w/ BM re: skids

Today I had to email BM for the first time re: ss. DH is in a seminar and has no access to email/computer. There is no phone communication w/ BM because it has been such a problem in the past. SS has a mouth sore and is losing his sh!t because it hurts. We tried OTC stuff, which he claims isn't helping, so today I had to talk to the Pediatrician to get a prescription called in.

BM using SS to guilt trip BF into dropping petition to modify

Here's an email that BM sent to BF this morning. Interestingly, according to this email SS has already missed one day of school and it's only the second week they've been back. Considering that this was sent at 7:30 this morning, and BM claims to have been writing what SS was saying, apparently he's not in school today either...Here's the email:
