I had a phone conversation with my lawyer this morning discussing my rights and my daughter’s rights.
He told me that if my daughter has expressed in a clear statement that she is bothered and does not want to see my Ex with her BF (Note she wants to see her mom just not her BF) that she can choose not to go and I do not have to make her.
He stated that the BF should fade into the background for a while at least until my daughter is willing to accept him.
If my Ex decides to move away from our city my Daughter can choose to stay with me. My son it could be more of a fight but given that this city is their home, my job allows me the time needed to be father and I have a record of how many days my kids have spent with me over time with her for the past year. That I would have a good chance of getting custody should it come to that. I would make no changes in the visitation with their mother I am trying to do what is in my kids best interests and in my own.
So I have some relief there.
Tomorrow am is Counseling for my daughter… both of us are nervous.
Still working on goals… I have a few in mind but I want to make sure they are focused.
