What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Virginia
My Ex and I share Joint legal and Physical Custody of our Kids. (This maybe helpful). We just went to court in July. When we were in Court. Ex, was working third shift. Then first shift. Then back to third shift. I, was working with him, as fair as his visitation with the kids. Then, he started working second shift. (All these different shifts are the same job).
My (MOM) visitation, is-Sunday thru Thursday, 6:00 pm to 8:00 am and every other weekend.
Dad- MTWTF at 8:00 am, and every other weekend.
Dad has been back on second shift for about a month now. When, he notified me that he was going on second shift, I knew this would cause a problem. (Visitation for kids). Dad wants to pick the kids up at 11:30 pm. I disagree with that. I told dad no. That I felt it wasn't in the best interest of the kids. One, of the kids are already having problems in school from Meds that make her sleepy. It was bad at the beginning of the school year. The teacher had a hard time keeping her awake. In, the last few weeks it's gotten somewhat better. With, me not agreeing with Dad, he as usual Petition for Full Custody. Or, for him to pick the kids up at 11:30 pm. That Mother will not work with him on visitation. And, we have a Court date for next month.
I know every custody hearing is different. But, my question is- Am, I being unreasonable to agree with that time of night? And, is it possible for a Judge to grant Dad 11:30 pm visitation of school age kids? Or, even Full custody? And, dad hasn't paid his CS in three months.
I appreciate any help.
