[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ask for child support, if for no other reason than that you can offer to give it up in exchange for what you really want, which is full custody. If you don't ask for it, you don't have that bargaining chip.[/quote] That's not really true since she can amend the pleadings to file for it so she can still use it as a bargaining chip. It's actually less of a bargaining chip once she actually files for it since it's then at the judge's discretion. OP is in a unusual situation in that bio dad isn't very interested in visitation whereas OP wants to encourage that relationship. It seems like if she upsets the guy he might pull back on the visitation. Maybe OP will decide she'd rather him not visit and, if so, then not a big deal. Just seems like the possible consequences outweigh any benefits here.[/quote]
