What is the name of your state? Kansas
My daughter is 13 years old. Her father and I have joint custody of her. She has repeatedly made the statement that she doesn't want to go to his house on his days. I have always told her that I would never make her go, but that she has to be the one to tell him that she doesn't want to go and why. I know that the minute she tells him she doesn't want to go, that he is going to fight me on it. I want to do this the right way and not make things more difficult for my daughter. What can I do? I don't want him showing up at my house with the police. She doesn't want to go to her dad's because she does not get along with her step- mother, and her father does not support her in anything she does. She is a very active child, basketball, softball, cheerleading. He very rarely shows up for anything that she does, and this makes her feel absolutely terrible, therefore, she doesn't want to be around him. How do I do this the right way????
