No you cannot have his rights revoked for that reason. Either his drug use is an issue or not. I am guessing it isn't until you decided you wanted to move and you want to make it an issue to move with your new love. 40 miles? Drive if it is for a job.My ex and I have legal joint custody of our children, I solely have physical custody. I would like to move my children and myself out of state (40 miles away) if my ex fights me on this can I have his rights revoked if I can prove that he abuses drugs and alcohol?
...but only if you want to move 40 miles away...There is no new love.. i would be moving into a bigger house for the same amount of money in a better community, closer to my family.. Sorry but I believe driving under the influence with my children in the vehicle is a problem!
...which you didn't think was worth mentioning in your first post.There is no new love.. i would be moving into a bigger house for the same amount of money in a better community, closer to my family.. Sorry but I believe driving under the influence with my children in the vehicle is a problem!
so DSS found no proof of dad driving while intoxicated then you have no case.There has been action taken dss was involved and just recently decided to drop the case because the father refuses to take them anymore, he only had them every other weekend and he says he needs more time for himself, he believes he is punishing me. This man was physically, mentally and verbally abusive in our marriage, he is very manipulative and controlling, the only reason why he would try to prevent me from moving (he hasn't as of yet and he is aware of my intentions) would be to try to make it difficult for me. I have worked hard to get where I am, (because of his control issues) only being divorced a year now, the children and I are living in a small cramped apartment and they are really looking forward to this move.
alot of court orders include daily phone contact between the children and the non-residential parent. example, in mine, dad can call between 6-8pm to speak with the kids every evening he doesn't not have parenting time. he doesn't HAVE to call, but i HAVE to allow it. same issue with internet webcam access. dad can have a set time that allows him to have visual contact with his children on a daily basis.DSS got involved after it came out in therapy, the children had expressed their concern and the therapist reported it.. If dad is interested in seeing the children I dont mind taking care of the expenses, transportation etc. as of now he is not showing any interest in spending any time with them, he has not taken them in a couple of months.. what do you mean about court order phone contact and web cam?
maybe i missed it, (it's hot and i feel sleepy) but does dad have a conviction involving drugs and alcohol? and just in case, no, still dad gets to keep his rights. even if.I didnt say that he hasn't had contact with them, when we were first divorced and as stated in the divorce decree he would take them everyother weekend he has not spent physical time with them in a couple of months and I know this because I have physical custody and they are with me 24-7. How can I make sure, if he does decide to take them for a weekend, that he wont drink and drive with them or smoke pot around them. Im afraid that the kids (particularly the older one who notices everything) wont tell me in fear of dss getting involved again.
