Hopefully by now you've met with your lawyer. The main focus should be your kids. I'm not all caught up with what's happening as far as that goes.
Is there any sort of custody agreement between the two of you at all right now?
Has she or does she deny you seeing the kids?
I know this is tough and scary man, I don't want to add to it but this is probably the single most important thing and it really needs ALL of your focus.
Forget about your R right now, and no I'm not at all saying giving up or tell her to eff off. Just worry about that later on down the road. Who know's what the hell is going to happen anything is possible.
Right now you need to make all the effort you can possibly make to see your children.
The clock started ticking so to speak once you two separated. Most of the time the court will look back to that time. They will look at who is taking care of the kids and how often.
I can't stress this enough man! Get something in place and filed in writing when it comes to custody ASAP!!!
It's different in every state but the majority of the time the court will look back to the time of seperation on up to the present day. They will look to see who has the kids the majority of the time and try to stick with that to prevent disrupting their lives any futher. (as f@cked up as that sounds, it's what happens)
See what I'm saying? You get those kids as much as you possible can right now. You can't expect to have them a day or two here and there for the next six months and then walk into court (if it comes to that) and ask for joint custody. They are going to look at you and go "where the f@ck have you been for the last six months?"
So Bolt, forget all the other sh!t right now and focus on this, get something in place as far as custody goes (in writing and filed with the court) and like Mach said DOCUMENT this crazy [censored]. This needs to happen like yesterday man.
Make every effort you can possibly make to get the kids an equal amount of time. Overnights are key. They are what count.
If she denies you the kids, you file a report and call your lawyer. Period. You can't let your fear get in the way of this either. You have to make every effort you can to see those kids right now. This is THE most important thing you have got going on, everything else takes a back seat to this.
Dig deep brother, you can do this. One day at a time, one thing at a time.
