[quote=Anonymous] Sorry about the weird quote box above, here is what I wrote-

NP here. So, my exdh does not have a ASD dx. He was dx as ADHD as a child (upon failure of 2nd grade). He never received any help and of course, thinks he doesn't have it-he is literally textbook ADHD! (we do have a dc with autism). We just finalized last month and started shared parenting.

The ADHD stuff meant nothing in terms of custody. My state presumes 50/50 unless you are like a murderer or committed to the asylum. My dc is 7 (we have grown kids but of course they are not part of custody). I did purposely wait because dc is now able to at least tell me what is happening and ask for food and stuff. Anyhow, we never went to court (the vast majority of divorces do not) and our parenting plan is a standard one for our state. I hired a good lawyer and she advised me well and I got as much decision making put in there as I could and also explicity laid out custody times and dates. His lawyer basically told him to sign, that this is how it is.

So far, it's going 'ok' I guess. Dc is happy enough. I did, however, have to call the school this week after I found out that dc had been sent to school in the same long sleeve shirt two days in a row (it was dirty and it was 85 degrees) and ask them to notify me if dc shows up unkempt or out of dress code (the school was helpful and professional about it). Exdh has the same amount of uniform clothes as I do (we split them together and equally) so I said, where are dc's short sleeve shirts? He said, I don't have any...I said LOOK AGAIN and they were hanging right were we put them! And he claimed to not have socks...he has socks and even if he didn't, he drives past walmart and target at least twice a day! But, he's already found time and organization to get himself an OLD profile LOL he needs a warning label!

Anyhow, I do believe that it's better for dc to have one stable, normal home 50 percent of the time than a dysfunctional home 100 percent of the time[/quote]
