What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? Ohio
Does anyone know that age of reasoning in Ohio and how binding is it. I have posted other threads on this site but now I have a new issue.
My ex for the fouth time in two years calls wanting me to take custody of my three kids. Everytime she gets into it with her live in boyfriend I get the call. My kids are 13,12 and 10 and she wants to give me full custody. Everytime this happens we have things worked out where she will give me full custody and then she changes her mind and goes back to the boyfriend the whole time screwing with the kids minds(last time she was moving to Florida without them).
I get the call today that she has officially moved out of her boyfriends house but the kids are actually still living there. She calls me asking once again do I want custody.
Obviously I want custody of my kids but I do not want it to be a 1 or 2 month thing. Because I have three kids with her and a fourth with my current wife I would need to sell my house and get bigger one which will be a big financial commitment. My fear is that if we agree to this that in six months from now when she is probably back with her boyfriend they can say they want to move back with their mom and I am left screwed.
Even though she may not be the most stable they have lived with their mom for the last 7 years and she was a stay at home mom during our marriage so that is the only thing they have ever known. Plus the big kicker is they are at an age that they have thier friends and if they move away from mom and she ends up moving back they will most likely loose thier friendships except when they visit her. My only hope is that if they do come and live here they will learn to like it and make new friends.
