Ok, here is my HUGE problemy X husband and I had agreed to share custody of our daughter (he had residential custody)ell things have changed since he decided to go back to school so we decided that our daughter would reside in my house full time and with him on the weekends since I am paying for her to go to a private school in my town. Well know he is complaining about how far he has to travel to take her to school on Mondays and what a big inconvenience this is to himo I檝e finally had enough and I檓 filling a motion to change custody and visitation arrangements (I will be representing myself) well he said if I take him to court he will remove our daughter from the private school and put her back in a public school in his towno here is my question, since I do not want to disturb her stability I need to make sure that he can do this by law or does some law out there protect me? What should I do? I檓 so frustrated I need help but unfortunately I do not have the cash to get a lawyer. HELPCan her father transfer her to a new school?You need a lawyer anyway.
If he can't fulfill the agreement obligations you have a right to change it. But he currently can move her, so you need to find a way. How far is his drive? Mine was 350 miles for a year.Can her father transfer her to a new school?Right now, you have to abide by the decree. I think if you approach the school first, then they will not enroll her. Speak to the school superintendant of the school he wants to enroll her in. He must not think much of her stability and I would get a protective order AGAINST him immediately and suspend ALL visitation with him until the court can decree something.
Get a credit card and retain a lawyer on that. They really are worth it in such situations. Line up your ducks in a row sweetie, make sure you go for multiple reasons each time you go to court, if you go for the custody issue, go for the school issue, go for the visiitation issue, go for the support issue, and do yourself a favor, get some mediation with this man, and since you love your daughter, get her some therapy (someone trained to help your child understand her own feelings that isn't biased)Can her father transfer her to a new school?You know... it seems like you two had a great arrangement and were being very civil with each other. I think that you should do whatever you have to to keep that for the well being and happiness of your daughter. If you have to apologize to your X for lashing out over your frustrations and ask him to keep the arrangement you've made because the only thing that really matters is your daughter. She's happy in her current school and private education is good for her. Ask him if he'll put his daughter's happiness first and see what he says. For the child, I hope you can both be bigger people.Can her father transfer her to a new school?I am not with my sons father, yet I had put his fathers name on the emergency card at my sons school and that gave him the right to try and have my sons records sent down to a school near him. Because my son had not turned in all of his textbooks though, they would not release any of his records/transcripts. You need to contact the school and get an ex parte hearing so that your case is dealt with quickly.
