[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think i'd gut it out so my ex wasn't forced overseas. What is going to happen to his visa once you divorce is finalized? No way would I want my kids to be separated from their dad like that.[/quote]

I'm not OP, but-- What do you mean by "gut it out"? Do you mean OP should "stick it out" and not finalize the divorce? So she should remain legally married to him just so he gets to stay in the U.S.? It's on the ex to figure out his own visa issues now. Please go back and read: He had very little interest in his kid until he suddenly wanted a major alteration to custody out of the blue, and the issue may be keeping his money as much as wanting to see his child. Sure, maybe he had a genuine change of heart about seeing his kid and is totally sincere but that's still not a reason for OP to stay legally tied to him either.[/quote]

That is solely OP's opinion. Also, OP wanted sole custody. The dad doesnt sound unreliable here. I'm the PP and initially thought that my ex didn't really care about visitation either and I've come to realize that I was wrong over the years. It's hard to be objective when you're still processing the hurt over the demise of the relationship. OP and her ex should be careful about how visitation and custody are handled right now because it will have profound consequences either way. This child could end up growing up without a father (if he moves) or with a strong relationship with dad and regular contact with both parents. That's a big effing deal.[/quote]
