She is 2 1/2 now? I would love to talk to you more about this.
almost, 29 months. Thanks, feel free to ask me anything.
There is an examination called the Strange Situation test that is used by some custody evaluators when very young children are involved. It's based on attachment styles, and child psychologists use it to try and determine a child's bond to his/her caretaker. You might want to ask your lawyer if this is something used in your county court system. There was a member who came through here a while ago who said that the custody evaluation used this procedure, and he was awarded full custody in part because of how things played out in the Strange Situation test. I can't remember the member's name, unfortunately.
Thanks, I will look into that.
Do you plan to split the cost of child care?
I cant really afford it but I will split the cost until she gets the child care assistance back or things change when we go to court
Eco, could you remind me if your D's mom has any say in whether D gets counseling?
she has final say in things at the moment, I am going back to court to get the court order changed hopefully. Her last statement about counseling for my daughter when I suggested it was " I will take her If she needs it and without you, you don't need to be there for it" I disagreed and said that I should be involved.
