Rob,

  Be honest.  Be polite.  Do not bad mouth ex.  Ok to disagree with ex, but don't act like you have an axe to grind.  Focus on child/children.  It is all about them.  I wish you the best of luck.  Please keep us updated.  I have been through two of these, about two years apart.  One was extremely favorable, one was very close and gave edge to ex .
