[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]yes, I'm in similar situation. I asked for a modification of child support since she is now 13 and things are much more expensive. I did one when she was 6 months so I could depend on some help...he was ordered to pay $400/month....just granted the modification of $1,200/month. So what does he do? File a motion for joint legal and physical custody. We were never married and now in order to get his support payments down, he is showing up to events. She has see him more in the last two months, than she has in the last two years. Going to parenting classes now..then will have to go to mediation for visitation schedule. I'm hoping that the judge will see through this...anybody experience this also? any advise? Daughter has been in my care for the last 13 years, why now does he want shared custody? I have always encouraged visitation...but if it means I need to call and remind him of her birthday (He didn't even call her) and Christmas (no gift). He actually said that I don't bring her to see his parents! I don't think that is my responsibility...I don't need him to take her to my parents home. [/quote] I think it is your responsibility to ensure the kids see BOTH sets of grandparents, not just yours. If you want more child support it is totally reasonable for him to want more visitation. And who cares why he wants to see more of his daughter. Good for him and good for her.[/quote] Really it is my responsibility to take her to see is parents? Not his responsibility to come get her and take her. I need to independently call his mother and make arrangements with his mother for my child to see them? I'm sorry I don't get that. All I have to do is allow him to pick her up and see her. Which I do. It is not my responsibility to make sure she calls him, his parents, or any of his family. [/quote]
