both my L and I and have felt that the LG is on my STBW's side throughout this. I don't think her recommendation would be pro FIB. JMO right now as I am not sure.
GAL's are supposed to stay impartial and generally do not lean one way or another. You may be surprised at what the GAL recommends.
Quote:
Joint custody is only agreed to between two parties. SHOULD the court award custody to STBXW simply based on her being the mom, most likely, I will never see my kids again.
Really FIB, you really believe this? New York does not offer joint custody, however that does not prevent a judge from seeing a mothers true colors when she negligently does not work out a joint parenting plan with a father who has shown no ill will. This is not the 1960's anymore FIB. The system has changed along with societies view on fathers rights.
Lastly, and I am saying this as your friend Frank, your attitude portrayed on here does not help. PMA dude, Positive Mental Attitude. I would love to see you maybe get into a mindset of not having these super negative moments. The drama that they cause for you have to be overwhelming...Just my opinion buddy.
