My divorce has only been final about three months and my ex husband is already about to get married again. We have joint custody of our 3 year old daughter but he has physical custody, meaning she lives with him and I get visitation. My ex thinks he's the only parent because I haven't been able to pay child support but he knows I'm not working right now. He feels like he's being generous because he %26quot;allows%26quot; me to spend more time with my own child than what the court order says I get. He acts like I need to tell him every time I make plans for my child and ask his permission if I want to spend time with her during the week. Now he's about to marry some woman I know nothing about, move her and her kid in with them, and start co-parenting my child. Our custody agreement says we can't leave our child in the care of anyone we've been sexually involved with so can I take him back to court and have it changed so she lives with me and he gets visitation?How can I change my custody agreement?First of all- Child Support (or lack of child support) is a completely separate issue from custody. They are handles separately by the court, and your not being able to pay should NOT affect you being able to see your little girl.
As for changing the custody...honestly, if you are determined enough to get it, hire a lawyer. I have a feeling it may be hard. No offense (seriously, none at all) but it's very unusual for a mother to lose custody of her daughter unless she is truly unfit (I am NOT accusing you of this, just stating a fact). This makes me think it may be much harder for you to get custody for something like this, because there must have been drastic circumstances for you to lose it in the first place.
I wish you luck though- I truly ache for you, it must be very hard not to be with your daughter.How can I change my custody agreement?Pay up or shut up. You gotta prove yourself capable of taking care of the child by first being able to take care of yourself.
Pay you child support and stop being jealous of his new relationship
