Thanks ocean.
Here are some responses/comments/questions etc.
Child is doing average in school. The assertion made by the child's psychologist is that the child's grades go down every time I show intent to visit.
I have a very hard time logging in and checking the child's grades because the CP constantly tells the school that I don't exist. (Not sure which medium this is done by).
It takes several days every year of substantiating my identity and fighting with the school to have access reinstated.
I spoke to the school counselor and they were very vague. I was ultimately able to determine that my child is on a 504 plan pursuant to a psychiatrist's assertion.
It won't allow me to posts links here, but a 504 plan is for severe anxiety. I doubt that is commensurate with an alleged disability that requires
child support for life payments, but it is concerning that things have gotten this far. It is also concerning that the CP has infinite taxpayer resources to have the child diagnosed with whatever rotating sickness CP desires to meet this potential objective.
As far as the SSDI situation, I had similar thoughts. I've been trying to get the SSA to provide me with information concerning child's SSDI status without notifying CP lest I give them ideas. No one there seems to know what to do and I all I get are form letters back. I guess a visit to my local
SS Office is in order.
I am about 16-17 hours away by car.
I like your idea of showing intent to get the child even if I don't actually follow through based upon the reasons that I described.
The idea of compelling a response (or lack thereof) is useful. Thank you.
On a side note, my texts and calls to the child are always unanswered.
Some additional notes of interest:
1) I have specifically asked CP for Skype visitation and CP ignores it. (Lawyers idea).
2) I have asked CP for child's
passport number (my idea) (as opposed to copies of his passport where CP can photoshop things) and CP ignores it. This would allow me to see if child really is too sick to travel, and whether or not CP will assert to the State Department Passport Office during child's next upcoming passport renewal that CP can't find me and override the need to obtain my signature.
3) The psychiatrist refuses to tell me what the problem is and advises that they don't need to tell me due to patient doctor confidentiality....seems like this is more than likely the law in Florida. Psychiatrist advises that they don't tell the CP the issue either. However, psychiatrist then admitted that the CP sits in on the sessions (interesting that a psychiatrist has sessions, I thought that was a psychologist). Then Psychiatrist says that it is not me causing the anxiety, but couldn't tell me what was.
The only problem I see with your last thought is that judge refused to compel visitation at our last hearing. I doubt that he would do it now. I asked for reimbursement, but that wasn't granted. Just a whole lot of yelling and off topic from the judge.
I am thinking of filing a motion to disqualify with this judge on the premise of bias which is allowable under Florida law. Even if I lose, it would be helpful for reasons I don't feel comfortable posting here.
I am thinking of doing this all pro se...wouldn't be the first time or the last. No attorney could get further than me.
I really like the thoughts that I am getting here.
Thanks again!
