Me and my ex split on decent terms (everything ends bad) my problems started when she foundout the "benefits" of having custody. Dhs help welfare or whatever its called now. All that got stuck in her head was money and free shit. Then found out she was using meth and the guy she was dating was dealing. My boy would come home for the weekend and tell me "mama got put in jail" and all kinds of other stuff. I started really pursuing full custody and every judge or lawyer I ran into knew her mom or grandpa. I live in a rural part of Oklahoma so that family crap still has a lot of pull around here.
Tell your friend not to give up if he keeps tryin the courts will notice. And will eventually start workin for him instead of against.
glad to hear you have custody now no kid deserves to go through stuff like that man.
ya he is staying with it and I think the courts are starting to work a little more in his favor now. The original custody agreement was around a year ago or so and I think they have to renegotiate the terms here pretty soon or maybe it was in the original agreement that after a year or so he gets more rights...
