What is the name of your state? CP Maryland, NCP Florida
Hello,
After four years, my sons father has decided he wants to see him. He sent me a visitation schedule that is unrealistic. Neither one of us would be able to afford the cost of travel, let alone the NCP is a complete stranger to our son. He wants a week every two months and every other holiday and 6 weeks in the summer. He wants me to pay half of all travel costs for our son, which I barely get any child support as it is and could not afford it. The NCP also wants to stop paying child support anytime he has our son. The NCP has so many children that anytime we go to court for child support, he gets exceptions so the child support for my son is already significantly lowered to begin with.
Along with all of this, the NCP is not the one who has been doing anything. His wife has been doing all the communicating and she is a nuisance. The first meeting between my son and the NCP is in early January. She wants to bring their kids and keeps wanting to know if my son understands about his father, her (his wife) and his kids with her. HE IS FOUR! She just doesn't get it. She keeps asking for pictures, I send them and then a week later she is asking for a 'better picture.' On top of all this, she runs a baby mama drama website on the internet. When I've never personally spoke to her or her husband in the four years since I've had our son and since they've gotten married.
With all that said, I have no problems with my son meeting and getting to know his father. Evidenced by the fact I didn't tell them to take me to court.
I just feel uneasy about this and think that maybe they are trying to do this for financial reasons.
Does anyone know where a typical out of state visitation schedule is and who pays for what? Any suggestions on any of this is appreciated! I'm so confused.
Thanks.
