What is the name of your state? TN
Our divorce was final June 21st. We went to court on May 17th because my ex had supervised visitation with his children because of his drug use. He came into the court room high and the Judge knew he was high and told my ex about it but allowed him to have unsupervised visitation but specified he is not to use illegal or perscription drugs while in the presence of his children. He gets them every other weekend, Holidays are even/odd years and 1 week out of the summer/1 week at christmas and fall and spring breaks are to be equally divided. He just remarried 3 days ago to a older woman while on vacation with his children. I own my own home, in a nice subdivision, they attend a good school, my son is on A/B honoroll always and they need for nothing. I do not have men coming and going in my life, I work, take care of my home and take care of my children. I am concerned that they may eventually try to take me back to court for custody or more visitation. I have had many people tell me the custody is not possible because I am a good mother. He has never been involved in there lives until she came into the picture. Before the May court date, he was never getting them and it had been 2 months since he had seen them. Should I be concerned? The papers say the children reside with there mother other than when its his visitation. The majority of the decision making with the children is joint. Our relationship (me and ex) has been ongoing for 15 years and his drug habits have gotten worse over the years, Perscription and crack cocaine. The judge just called him an idiote and that if he wanted to use drugs it was a free country but he could order that he not use them while with his children. So far he is trying. He is getting them when he is suppose to and doing things with them. His house that he is living in is her home but she has a 16 year old son that my son (7) and daughter (2) are sharing a room with the 16 year old. My son and daughter have to sleep in one bed and the 16 year old in the other bed. I appreciate any input. Thank You
