Karen,

Don't EVER let anyone make you feel that staying home, taking care of your children, was anything but a very selfless, positive, fruitful thing to do. No one knows your kids like you, and no one could take care of them like you could....only a mother knows best.

I'm not sure why she doesn't have an emergency hearing about custody. This power play your stbxh is making about snatching the kids away from you is not healthy for the kids. You need a SET schedule that he cannot deter from. You would be able to show that he is not actually with them, that he never USED to even WANT them, and so on and so forth.

And let me again say what a snake he is.....he kept pushing for public school......you see why now...less pay all around if this happened and just like your atty. said, because they are in public school, close to him, custody is now affected. He knew this. Do you believe public school is good for those kids so far? You said you would reevaluate after they were there awhile. Could you still homeschool them, or is that an impossibility now? Maybe it isn't in their best interest anymore...I don't know....

We're here for you.
