What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NJ. Please dont judge me I screwed things up enough. My wife is seeking custody of our 4 children ages (13,12,11,6). I have not lost my rights to my kids my judge has even given me unsupervised permission to be around them in the same house.I currently live with a cousin and her 4 small chlidren. I'm not a threat to my kids or the ones I live with. My children have exspressed their unhappieness in their home with my wife and her boyfriend. I could use some help in finding a way that this custody judge doesn't take my rights away. Is their any case law out their that can help me. Thank You for reading my post.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?

There has to be a change in circumstance in the lives of the children. Them being unhappy is not a change in circumstance.

Not only are they unhappy my wife's boyfriend steps on their toes when they dont put shoes on. My oldest and youngest daughters have been grounded since mid Dec. and dont get off it until Mid March. My 12 year old daughter and my 11 year old son r sharing a bedroom. Their cousins who live upstairs take their toys cloths when ever they want and my wife does nothing about it so yes it is because they r unhappy.

Like I said, not enough reason to petition for a change in custody?

So, are you a member???

sry i misunderstood your first post. my wife just filed she has had custody of our kids since 2008 when i went to jail i was released in Jan 2011. Now she is filing for custody that she already has. I was just curious if their is any laws in the state of NJ that will prevent me from seeing my kids or that will stop me from getting custody of my children. In 2008 I pled guilty to filming 2 teenage grls in the shower of my own home i served my sentence am now supervised under parolefor possesing the video on my computer.

Of what exactly were you convicted? Are you divorced from your wife? Are there ANY court orders or this an INITIAL determination since you were in jail and she kept the children?

answer to ?'s regarding my charges

In 2008 I pled guilty to filming 2 teenage grls in the shower of my own home i served my sentence am now supervised under parole. My actual charge was sexual abuse of children but i hate that wording cause i was charged with a no contact crime not saying what I did was any better but its all in the wording. My wife and I r currently still married. Their r no court orders preventing me from seeing my kids right now and this is the INITIAL determination.

Well, since you have changed your story, (about the custody) I will venture to say that you have issues. Your wife is going to try to prove to the court that you are a danger to your children.

Were the minors friends or relations to your children? To you?
