I never knew seeking advice would result in name calling and rude comments. I do not think that is called for or very professional. I hurry and write for assistance before I go to work..or before bed. There is a lot to the story and cannot possibly write all of it.One question for you: if you are not a 20 year old twit, are you a 40 year old twit? Because you are not presenting yourself well. If your ex has an attorney, you will be destroyed in front of a court.
You have an attorney. Listen to that attorney who hopefully has all your evidence, all your information and all the actual facts.I never knew seeking advice would result in name calling and rude comments. I do not think that is called for or very professional. I hurry and write for assistance before I go to work..or before bed. There is a lot to the story and cannot possibly write all of it.
Let's see....my son's father lived with his father. He stated he did not want our son living with him because of how his father is. I do not know what that means. This was in 2009. In 2011, he kicked his father out to have his new girlfriend, her sister and her husband and another girl move into the apartment. They drink, smoke marajuana, party. None of them work at all. Their friends told me of maggots all over the house, my son not having a bed to sleep in. Some of the people slept in the living room. The last time my son was at this apartment was June of 2011 when 2 of the people watched my son. He has not been there since and I had nothing to do with that. I have been trying to communicate with my son's father about how important keeping communication with his son is. That he and I have to communicate about issues regarding our son for his best interests.
My son previously has said that his father pats his pee pee and doesn't like it. I did call that in to protective service who said they would look into it. My son has come back from his father's house with strange bruises on his back and said daddy likes to wrestle but I tell him not too. Since his father has not had him to his apartment, no more talk to patting pee pees or wrestling occurs. One time he came back with a cut over his eye and told me daddy drove too fast and I hit my head.
With me, he has a stable home environment, food, water, shelter. It is just my husband and I, a dog and cat. Steady employment, insurance. With his father he has none of that.
Your past is relevant. Do you really think the questions in court will be easier than what you have been asked here?whole story eh? Using old threads from a year ago? Attacking me?
You stated you were the one "washing his hands" at the time of the burn. Why would a parent force a child to keep their hands under scalding water to the point that the burn took DAYS to heal? When I have assisted my little ones in washing, and they said the water was too hot...I turned the temp down. I also test the water before submerging hands, feet or body in it.I never knew seeking advice would result in name calling and rude comments. I do not think that is called for or very professional.

So, you were also seen by the doctor and treated?No. The accident occurred. Yes. The water was not scalding, he did not cry, my hands were under the water too.
And you've got the reality of it, not what you wanted to hear.On this faceless forum, I cannot show you all my documents and evidence. I can hold my own very calmly and in a very educated manor without resorting to name calling unlike is done in this forum. I doubt that the opposing counsel will yell out hey you twit!
I will not keep rehashing the accident over and over. That does not reflect my current question. I do not need to report to you, whomever you are, my entire life story simply to say hey, did you think of asking your lawyer to obtain your son's father's health history because he is bipolar?
No. The accident occurred. Yes. The water was not scalding, he did not cry, my hands were under the water too. I did not forcibly do anything. It was an accident just like when he falls and scrapes his knee or walks into tables.
All I wanted is someone to say if you are going for custody make sure you have**********************************************************************.
I have work records, parenting class records, attempted communication records. Photos of my son's life with me. Photos of my ex's life which were publicly available. I have some of his family who are going to be witnesses for me along with anyone who has knowledge of what is in the best interest of my son. I have taken my son to a counselor and we had family counseling, so I also have that therapist.
As for the pediatrician, it was his regular doctor. The person he saw at the time of the accident was just someone on call.
I cannot possibly tell you every single thing that has ever happened to me or every single detail over the past 4 years.
If someone actually thinks my son is better off with someone who lives in an environment with alcohol, multiple sex partners, no jobs, and an apartment full of cat poop, dog poop and maggots, then maybe that person has a bigger problem than I.
I believe this will be my last post ever on this board. I can defend myself in court with actual evidence. Here are simply opinions and rudeness.
Inadmissible. Protected by statute by patient/client confidentiality.I will not keep rehashing the accident over and over. That does not reflect my current question. I do not need to report to you, whomever you are, my entire life story simply to say hey, did you think of asking your lawyer to obtain your son's father's health history because he is bipolar?
Wrong. It was a first degree burn that required antibiotic cream AND ended up with pleading to a crime.No. The accident occurred. Yes. The water was not scalding, he did not cry, my hands were under the water too. I did not forcibly do anything. It was an accident just like when he falls and scrapes his knee or walks into tables.
Hearsay, hearsay, hearsay.All I wanted is someone to say if you are going for custody make sure you have**********************************************************************.
I have work records, parenting class records, attempted communication records.
And? Could be irrelevant.Photos of my son's life with me.
Irrelevant.Photos of my ex's life which were publicly available.
Biased and "anyone" can't speak to what is in the best interest of the child. That is what a GAL does -- which was suggested on page 1 a while ago. Maybe even post 2.I have some of his family who are going to be witnesses for me along with anyone who has knowledge of what is in the best interest of my son.
Patient/client privilege. Has the therapist also ever seen how child and dad interact? If not, then she cannot speak about dad at all. You didn't have joint custody so how did you take the child to counseling without dad's permission -- and you better prove you had dad's permission to take him? If you had family counseling, who was the counselor actually supposed to treat? The counselor also has an ethical issue if she was treating your son separately from you as well as for family counseling.I have taken my son to a counselor and we had family counseling, so I also have that therapist.
And? The burn led to a criminal conviction.As for the pediatrician, it was his regular doctor. The person he saw at the time of the accident was just someone on call.
Prove it. Multiple sex partners? Is it in front of the child that he is having orgies or sex with people? If not, it doesn't matter. How much in child support do you pay? Are you current and up to date? Alcohol is NOT against the law so prove why that is a danger to your child.I cannot possibly tell you every single thing that has ever happened to me or every single detail over the past 4 years.
If someone actually thinks my son is better off with someone who lives in an environment with alcohol, multiple sex partners, no jobs, and an apartment full of cat poop, dog poop and maggots, then maybe that person has a bigger problem than I.
You better hope you have something MORE than what you stated here because unless the other side stipulates to it coming in, most of what you have is NOT admissible.I believe this will be my last post ever on this board. I can defend myself in court with actual evidence. Here are simply opinions and rudeness
It is a question that OP should ask her attorney.Ohiogal, may I ask? Would the fact that the Father has court ordered custody and the Grandparents have physical custody be a "Change of Circumstance" to move the court for the Mother to regain custody?
Aside from all of her allegations against the Father and Grandparents that will not fly, would she not have a chance on this fact alone?
She better be able to prove that the grandparents actually have the child CONSTANTLY and they are not just babysitting whiel dad is working or visiting consistently. And i don't know if she can actually prove that. Because the child is most likely enrolled in school from dad's home.Ohiogal, may I ask? Would the fact that the Father has court ordered custody and the Grandparents have physical custody be a "Change of Circumstance" to move the court for the Mother to regain custody?
