Wife in MLC and ready to leave #4

[25yearsmlc]

Please identify who is speaking to whom, in this sentence of yours:

She had her L call and tell her that my L is asking for full custody and she freaked out telling me that I was an evil person who wants to manipulate my D to hate her because I'm so upset about her leaving me and just like her dad said, I'm going to be horrible.


you have 2 daughters, right?

Assuming I understood what that ^^ sentence means, this is all about the younger one, the 14 y/o? (B/C I assume the older daughter is off at college, or will be soon?) And yet this is the ignored daughter that your FIL wished away?

Last I checked, the law in Texas says the 14 y/o gets to choose.

When the law is on your side, there's nothing to really argue about, imo.

If your daughter does not want a 7 days/days schedule, and if it is as disruptive as you said, it won't happen.

9/10 of parents who are not chosen by the child to have primary custody, argue that the other parent has bad mouthed them. Don't do it b/c you can have custody rights damaged (it's called Parental Alienation) or withdrawn. (That is not an accusation that you have bad mouthed her. It's a statement of legal fact).

If your w continues to rant the way you describe, and if you remain calm as you describe, it does not help your w in any way.

I would not lose sleep over this.

Sometimes you have to just sit on the curb and watch the MLC parade go by...get some popcorn and a drink. It's going to be a long parade...
