Changing custody

[liddykitty]

What is the name of your state? Illinois

The divorce and custody was placed in the Illinois courts. The mother with custodial rights moved to Kentucky and an attachment was placed in Illinois courts that she should provide transportation to the father. Now the father has moved to South Carolina.
There are holidays that are provided in the agreement, 1st and third weekends, and 4 weeks in summer with a schedule to be provided by April 1. The custodial parent has refused visitation on the named holidays and has not provided a summer schedule, how can the father get his visitations enforced? He is disabled, cannot afford a lawyer, and the mother used his rights for a free lawyer to divorce him while he was incapacitated by his stroke and brain surgery.

He needs to file for a modification. At this point, Mom is only required to transport the child to IL for visitation. Not SC.

welfare of child concerns

What age must a child be in the state of KY to left home alone?
We are concerned about his safety and education, she has let her 16 year old drop out of school. He keeps telling us about the meth lab busts in his apartment complex. They had police at their apartment looking for 5 suspects. He tells us he smelled the neighbor cooking drugs. As a matter of fact so did his mother. She has her son ask us for money all the time. Saying that they have no money for food. They do recieve support payments. Last summer she told him he wouldn't get to go on vacation with her daughter and her if we didn't give them money. He is torn between wanting to live with us because he doesn't like the problems but also doesn't want his mom to be angry with him or sad. She tells him all the time that she doesn't know what she would do without him there. What should we do?
