What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? TX
I have been divorced a year and a half. My ex had RFR put into our decree so that every single time I need a babysitter for more than 3 hours he has to be offered the right to have my kids.
I am a full time student and a server at nights and on weekends. He has a telecommuting job that allows him to work from home. However, while he is on 5 hour long conference calls at home, he has his girlfriend watch the kids. He never offers me right of first refusal even when she is unavailable; he takes them to a drop off daycare.
My question is that I am afraid he will seek custody if I allow him to have the kids much more often than his original visitation, and if that is a viable reason for a judge to overturn custody?
As co-parents, we barely communicate about anything. He badgers me about RFR constantly and he has suggested multiple times that I get a job that is more condusive to my children.
I have two to three more years of school until I graduate as an environmental engineer. I maintain 4.0 gradepoint average, take care of 3 children and work around 25-30 hours a week.
I was unable to work or go back to school during my marriage because of his job and hours. He can work anywhere from 70-100 hours a week.
I want what is best for my children, is getting RFR taken out of a decree hard? Can he have custody overturned based on my need to work and attend school? I just need some sound advice please.
