[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No, huuuuge red flag. Someone gave up their kids? They are a pos. End of story. [/quote]

Usually it’s not that they “gave them up,” but that their ex-partner basically stole custody.[/quote]

Not possible. If they don’t have them they didn’t do the barest minimum to fight for them. [/quote]

After a divorce, with child support, alimony, divorce costs, often men get stuck with the bulk of the expenses and they simply cannot afford the court battle.[/quote]

Every family court is more than equipped to do this with pro se litigants. The default rules heavily favor fair splits so it’s very hard for a mom to successfully avoid giving a willing dad his time. [/quote]

You really think a Dad will win pro se against an attorney and mom who makes up stories about how bad the dad is?  And, what if mom moved the kids cross country - that is still filing fees, plane tickets, hotel.  And, what about people who cannot travel freely like active duty?[/quote]

Not only do I think a dad will win pro se, up against a lawyer—I know he will. It happens absolutely every day.

Now if dad won’t give up a job that will prevent him from taking 50/50 custody you’re right. He won’t be granted 50/50 custody. Parenting is full of hard choices. Your husband made his choice. [/quote]

You are in la la land to think a dad with no legal experience can win 50-50.  And, how does that work when mom took the kids while he was at work and moved them cross-country without his or the courts permission?[/quote]
