All of those things you mentioned (no child support, no calls, no visitation used, him moving away from the child) would all weigh heavily in a relocation request.
Do yourself a huge favor, even if you opt to wait a few years, keep meticulous records of all of those things...how many times Dad calls (keep your phone company records), visitation used, create logs for all of this and keep track of it. It will make a difference down the road in supporting your request. If you can show the courts Dad doesn't call, doesn't pay support, doesn't want visitation, ... the courts are more likely to order the relocation.
Thanks for the suggestion. It's easy enough to keep the records since he doesn't really do anything. We are going to keep a running log with dates etc and will reach out to a lawyer if we end up trying to do so sooner.
I've found quite a few lawyers that specialize in relocation both in the states and out of so I'll make sure to go with one of those if we go forward.
As for the last post about moving to FL. No way. That's where the ex is and his temper is not something I want to move closer to. Can we say stalking?
Thank you again for all the suggestions.
