Im a divorced father of three girls in Illinois. my ex recently moved about 45minutes away from me and thats without real traffic and of course the weather! which can easily turn my commute into an hour or more, just one way. I found out that she was moving on the day i was going to take my oldest daughter to her highschool orientation which was maybe a week or two before the move. my problem is that my ex doesn't feel that it is necessary to tell me that things were about to change. once i found out i called her and let her know that we would have to make some kind of compromise as far as the commute goes meeting me halfway did'nt sound unreasonable to me but her reply was simply NO! thats not gonna happen. i hate the thought of taking her back to court but she leaves me with no other choice I would like to know how i can modify her sole custody to joint legal custody. I dont want to take the children away from her, I just think that she needs to remember that the kids have a father who takes care of them and is involved in their lives. with her not informing me of changes leaves my visitation rights at her mercy.
thanks in advance for any help that you can provide.
