Yuck! the divorce just got real. I just got off the phone with an intake coordinator for the mediators who will be deciding the custody issue for s14 in July.

He was asking questions that I wasn't really ready to answer: are there violence issues, drinking issues, my social security number (ha, I never give my social security number to someone on the phone!)

S14 and om have had run-ins, but things seem to be settled down now b/c s14 is hanging out with his friends. This may be a bad sitch for s14, but when I saw him yesterday he was opening up 10 Pokeman packs, so he still seems like the innocent geeky teenager to me.

I am ready to air all of om's dirty laundry, if W won't agree to joint physical custody like last August om broke in to W's place, hit/shoved W, and police were called). But it seems like a longshot right now for me being the primary home for s14. I am torn on how nasty to get.
