So, now she's in default. They told her she had to pay $212 or I could be given full custody of my son. She can't pay it.

Basically, the ball is in my court now...they are going to give me whatever I ask for - she has no say in it anymore. I could be an (insert profanity here) and say I want full custody, but I'm not going to. I'm gonna be the bigger person and request what I set out for: Equal Rights. I want what is best for my son, not what's best for me or her. He needs both his parents in his life whether we are together or not.

I love my son more than anything in the world. If it wasn't for him, I would have gave up this fight to PCS months ago.


bh_pcs,

My mother was just telling me exactly what you said last night. Also, I've never hurt my son, nor have any domestic violence cases against me. The police have never been called on me for anything. She has nothing on me.

Things are actually moving pretty fast. ERDF (Equal Rights for Divorced Fathers) told me to come in and sign some paperwork...and they'll get me a court date within 3-5 days. They are great...they made everything so easy for me. I'll be sure to PM you if I need any help...Thanks!...
