I have joint legal custody w/ my ex husband, he is the primary caregiver. I am behind on financial agreements and he tells me when I start paying in what I owe him then I can make some of the decisions. He moved more 60 miles away from me 3 years ago and came back after living there for 1 yr. Now he is moving out of state which is more than 60 miles from me again. There was no consalting me on the matter, just said this is what he is doing.He has been this way about everything with the kids.Plus I ws told about it him going and laying down w/ my 10 yr old daughter in a seperate area of the house and going to bed w/ her till her step mom comes and tells her it is time to go to bed. There is alot more but this the basic drift of my concerns. Please get back to me on this I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you!

I have joint- 50/50 custody of my 9 year old son with his father. Here’s my question…His dad signed him up to be in a fall baseball league. There is a tournament in Redding, CA during a weekend that he has him. He is unable to take him and made arrangements for him to go with another family against my wishes. Its my understanding that this is a big enough decision that it would require us to be in aggreement to let our child go out of state without a parent???? Thank you for your time- its greatly appreciated!

Your case is the polar opposite of my usual joint custody cases – they agreed to it to get the divorce done and then find out they cannot cooperate for anything.
