Maybe i should have put more of my background information in there....I have been in and out of court about 6-7 times over the last 6 years....When our daughter was 1 i filed for Paternity and 'visitation' i was awarded one overnight and 1 'dinner' on sundays(about 15% of overnights), i filed again when our daughter was 3, that time i was awarded ever EOW and 3 weeks over the summer(about 20% of time) then through filing again, i was awarded Every thursday to friday overnight and 1-3-5th weekends as well as a tuesday dinner and half the summer(about 40-45% of overnights)....You see, my methods work, it's only recently i ran into a judge who felt very strictly about the 'unforeseen/significant change of circumstances' part of the law and i was denied because 'she started school', wasn't unforeseen. That's why i'm working this angle.
Now the question i wonder is, if i was a women and came in here and said "The father of my child has been neglecting his parenting time, he is supposed to have him for dinners, but never comes to see him, he hasn't shown up for those visitations for 2 years.....I've documented all of this, can i file to have those times included with my time, since he has neglected them' If you all would have said "Yes! and here is how you do it!"
(i was going to post a thread in a couple days saying that exact thing, in a 'womens' words....but it's too obvious what you all would say)
