What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? ohio
I have posted on here a few times about my ex and I and our issues. He takes 14 vacation days when our courts order states 2 non-consecutive weeks, wasn’t paying the day care provider (when court documents stated each pay daycare provider equally), uses his mom as our sons daycare provider consistently on his time (when court documents state we are to use a specific one while each of us is at work). He recently just made our daycare provider of 3 years mad enough to quit, but we do have our son enrolled in the local Y now. He consistently tells me he has shared parenting and what he does on his time is his business. I agree to a point but when he’s at work as I ask where our son is at and he tells me it’s none of my business I feel that is bull. These are just some the issues that he could be in contempt of if we went back to court. Other issues that he does are not answer phone calls, or text messages. We both mutually agreed in counseling, which we both are currently in, that we would call at bedtime to allow the other parent say goodnight. He has downloaded some program on his phone which allows him to bypass my phone and it goes right to voicemail. I get the voicemail and call right back but of course no answer. He also returns our son without his shoes or coat or returns him in PJ's. Not a huge deal but its costly. I ask for the stuff back and he states he doesn't have it. It’s very difficult to co-parent because it’s either his way or no way. I believe he is just trying to punish me because we aren't together. He constanstly still tries to get me to take him back, even after 2 years of not being together. Tells me our son needs us together and he's going to grow up with problems because his mom and dad aren't together. He tries to do anything he can to make my life hectic and cause problems. I have contacted the GAL multiple times since court has been over and she states with my lawyers' counsel I should go back to court and ask that the shared parenting plan be terminated because obviously it isn’t working for us. The GAL also states she can’t do anything now to make my ex behave because she is not on the case anymore and if I wanted her to intervene I would have to reappoint her and go back to court.
What are everyone else thoughts or suggestions on what I can do? My lawyer stated earlier this week her ONLY suggestion is to go back to court because counseling isn’t working and he just simply won’t behave. We have been going through this for 2 years. She stated that court intervention seems to be the only that that would make him behave.
