[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Is your DH going to be a character witness against her? If so, stay far, far away!

If you want to support her, then inviting for a drop off playdate is totally fine. If she doesn't respond, just give her space.[/quote]

It is an awkward situation because she wants full custody and the dad wants joint. The dad wants to stay in the life. She wants to move closer to her work I think and that would be a very commute and probably not doable for him for joint custody. It is a messy situation. She hasn’t told me anything, just what DH tells me. [/quote]

I think it’s fine for your DH to say the dad is a good dad and be a character witness. It’s not okay for your DH to be a character witness AGAINST her. [/quote]

That is correct. The dad wants DH to be a character witness to say he is a good dad.

He would not be a character witness against her.[/quote]

Unless the Dad has seen her treat the kids poorly or heard the kids say negative things about her. The DH is responsible for being a honest witness. If DH is closer with the Dad and has spent more time around the kids, he might have seen things that are problematic. Hopefully he is just being to asked about the Dads character and the like and it is not meant to attack the Mom.[/quote]

DH doesn't want to be involved. We both think that they should get joint custody. If the mom moves, the dad won't be in the children's everyday lives. I just feel bad for the kids. I don't think they should lose their dad.[/quote]
