How can I stop my ex from moving my child across the country?

Question by stephanie l: How can I stop my ex from moving my child across the country?
I am an addict in recovery with 19 months clean time. My ex-husband divorced me and got sole custody of my daughter three years ago while I was in jail for drug related offenses. (She will be 9 yrs old in March 2007) He has blocked every attempt at contact. Recently, the court has ordered visitation. I the first visitation was supervised by my daughter’s court appointed Guardian Ad Litem, and after a few minutes of hesitancy, it was like we had never been apart. The second time was unsupervised at my elder daughter’s house. When he dropped her off, she acted scared to be left with me until he left. Then she was affectionate, loving, and we had a great time together. She was also extremely happy to see her siblings, whom he has cut her off from also. When it was time for him to pick her up, she again acted fearful of us, and refused to take with her the gifts we had given her. Now he has filed with the court to move to Arizona. Just getting visitation has already drained me financially.

Get off Yahoo answers and get to an attorney. That person is in a position to help you. I am sure there is legal aid in your state based on the income.
That is your best recourse.

I need some honest opinions on a family issue & advice on moving forward!?

Posted by admin in Uncategorized on July 14, 2010

My father died at 57 from complications of alcoholism. I have been married 27 years & have 4 kids. My oldest was dx with alcohol addiction at 16. He was arrested 3 times for fighting and ended up in prison for 2 years @ age of 17 4 felony battery! From the day I learned my son was drinking/doing drugs, our family got therepy. Indiv, and family sessions. With love & support from God, my mom, and dear friends, we came thru that painful time! Son is 25, marriend and doing well. We have not had alcohol in our home for 13 years. My husbands family can’t have a gathering without it! Now that 3 of my kids are over 21, a brother in law constantly encourages them 2 drink shots etc at family events (where young kids are wittness to this b-i-l’s very DRUNK behavior). I’ve tried to explain our feelings of alcohol being inapprop @ bdays, 1st comm etc. And tried to explain our being hurt when they encourage kids 2 drink. Now, they r not talking to me. They say I AM Rediculous! Am I? Or, are they?
