They told him that and he kept asking questions.
He was VERY insterested in the child support... but none of the other stuff.. that his WIFE had decided.
"We this, we that.. etc"
A few other red flags popped up.
I do plan on enrolling the child in a headstart program AND pre-k.. because I think that early education (particularly when they absorb so much) is important.. And I told them this.. and the response was "Oh, well.. we can get him a private tutor for the weeks he is here." like attendance isn't an issue?
When their lawyer informed them that he would still have to pay 150 in child support even with joint custody.. he asked all sorts of questions, trying to find a way out of it. Which was probably a bad idea on his part- at least in front of me.. because it more than confirmed my suspicions.
My grandparents' lawyer (even though hes in Michigan) offered to read any and all documents before I sign them and offer advice whenever possible.. so I do have *some* help now.. and when they come down in the next week.. they want to help me find a lawyer.
Like I said, I am not keeping the child from him- we both agreed to a temporary order where they would be able to spend time with the child (whenever we are both available) until the legitimation.. which I was told most likely June-July. Then they want to do the EOW I suggested.. and build up to 50/50 shortly after.. Which I still don't find to be in the best interest.
The father and stepmother both work mon-fri, standard hours.. So he would be with her parents. When he is with me.. I work part-time.. so we do spend the majority of the day together. He goes to daycare on days I work (although, I would like to work full time and am currently looking into it)
I'm not sure what a judge is going to say at this point. :/
