This was another issue she brought up to me. That split time visitation hurts my son's development and is proven to be unstable.

Visitation Issues / Informed last night
Jan 05, 2010, 06:18:10 AM
According to my ex, she told me last night I will NOT get any overnight visitation until he is 2 years old. She claims it is her right to do this as a mother.
Obviously I'm going to court now as soon as I can afford a lawyer.

Visitation Issues / SMoking during pregnancy
Dec 30, 2009, 08:19:00 AM
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but as I'm getting all my ducks in a row and listening to her false accusations of doing what's best for our son, she smoked every day during her pregnancy despite my pleading with her. Cigarettes are proven to be unsafe for unborn fetuses which to me would seem like not doing what's best for our son.. How can I use this to my advantage? (god that sounds terrible to put it that way)

Visitation Issues / Filing for visitation without a lawyer
Dec 28, 2009, 08:20:45 AM
Hey all.
I'm just back to work for the first time after being laid off for five months, so money is an issue. With my ex not letting me take him for any time at all and me not being able to afford a lawyer yet here in IL, would you guys recommend me filing for visitation without a lawyer to get the ball rolling?

Visitation Issues / Visitation and Depression meds
Dec 27, 2009, 04:34:47 PM
I kinda mentioned this on the child custody board, but I figure this might be a better place. My ex and I were together from Nov of last year till a couple weeks ago. She is denying me unsupervised visitation based on me having depression issues in the beginning of the year. I was on Lexapro and Xanax (took them per the prescribed dosage) and have been done with them since july. I have shown NO depression symptoms since just before my son was born.
My ex says that I was unhappy much of the past year. She would be right as being with someone that berates you and is spiteful and hateful will make anyone unhappy.
She is now saying "You can't see him alone because you are unstable. I'm doing what's best for our son." Keep in mind this is after I broke up with her after dealing with her for a year.
She also brought up that because of my prior Domestic Violence issues, she no longer feels safe with me. (Little backstory, My ex fiance 7 years ago was cheating on me. He called me to tell me he had been sleeping with her. during an argument with both of them, I spit on her. I went to DV counseling for six months and had my record expunged.) I have never threatened her, nor touched her physcially. She however, slapped me the other night. Due to her blatantly making things up, i fear she's going to say something like i laid my hands on her. WHich I would never do.
Currently I'm going to be filing in court for unsupervised visitation. Do I go to the police about her slapping me? What would happen to our son if she is arrested if I haven't been granted unsupervised visitation?
Any help would be appreciated.

Illinois State Forum / Costs for filing for Visitation
Dec 27, 2009, 03:44:45 PM
I have to go this week to file for visitation and custody in Cook County due to the fact my ex will not let me take my son out of her home. I am only being allowed to see him from the hours of 6pm - 9pm..
What sort of costs am I looking at for filing this on my own?

Child Support Issues / How does child support work?
Dec 23, 2009, 11:44:18 PM
I started a custody thread on the other forum, and now i need to question Child support. She started threatening me with child support.
Here's my questions.
1) She's out of work now, but when she returns, she will probably make more than i do. Do i owe her anything?
2) If i am able to get 50/50 or full custody (i'm going for 50/50) do i owe her anything?
3) she is a leech of the govt. She makes $1600 in unemployment a month, and i make roughly 2000 a month at my job...
What am i up against here? I have an apt and bills to pay, she lives with her parents at 30 yrs old.

Custody Issues / Ex gf will not let me have unsupervised visits with my son
Dec 19, 2009, 09:25:12 AM
My situation...
My ex and I have NEVER lived together. She always refused to move in with me. My son is only four months old. I have tried being with her but she is the most miserable person I know. I told her last night I want to take my son overnight back to my place (we just recently broke up) and she told me you can't take him because I can't be without him. Lawyer up is what she told me (which I plan to do). Is there anything legally that I can do in the meantime to get my son to be allowed to come with me? I won't be that dad who just says F you I'm taking him, but I feel like I'm being taken advantage of...
Thanks
