The first thing I'd do, is if she hits you one more time, immediately call the cops and press charges.  You have no evidence if they aren't called.  Pass that I don't know, contact a lawyer but DON'T LEAVE THE HOME AND DON'T ALLOW HER TO TAKE THE KIDS AND MOVE.  If she is doing the stuff you say she has no right to have primary custody of your babies.  You sound like a responsible, and loving dad, I hope this all works out for you.  My advice is to hire a lawyer, and fight as hard and dirty as you have to.  Don't think about her feelings because trust me she won't think about yours.  

I think that a lot of families can relate to what this father is going through.  In my Dh's case his ex's parents are well off and paid for the attorney that allowed her to take the kids out of Dh's life.  This happened last summer and it seems that whatever she wanted to accomplish (having her new husband be their daddy) has worked.  They are here throughout the whole year 7 out of 52 wks.  So they are growing up (ages 6 & 4 ) more or less without their daddy.  We can't afford to go see them cause the child support is so high, and they live 500+ miles away.  We don't have anywhere to stay other than a hotel/motel when we go up.  Anyway, this movie sounds like it's going to strike home with all the similarities it has.

This woman sounds psycho!  

Yeah I believe it.  It is so disgusting and hard to think that a woman would want to hurt her kid by not allowing them to see their fathers.  These women need serious help.  Maybe both parent should have psychological screens before the placing of the children happen (for custody purposes) and the kids may have a better chance of having a good life.

yeah I went to site again today to check on it, and surprisingly there was another angry mom on there!  It just completely ticked me off that this woman thought she had the right to try and keep these kids from their fathers!!  For some reason women just don't understand that a child isn't whole without their father in their lives.  They can try to make replacements (ie step fathers, new boyfriends, etc.) but it's not the same.  In my family we try to promote obviously the for their father (I have 2 step kids) and the love for their mother.  I don't expect or even want to be called mommy by them because I am not.  I am their step mom and friend.  I love them deeply but they have 2 wonderful parents.  I have however seen the more difficult side of custody and moving out of state issues.  My husband didn't have the financial means to obtain an attorney for any of the court hearings, so in my opinion the courts and ex screwed him.  I don't know, but because of my experiences, this woman and her ridiculous post angered me to a point where I couldn't ignore her ignorance.

You have a very good question.  It is scary that this could happen to a father who is just trying to take care of his kids.  What he needs to do is file for custody change not a temp.  this woman is a nut job!

I was just on another forum for step moms and step families, and there was a woman on there who said she was upset cause her husband wanted 50/50 custody of their 12 & 8 year old!  Not as if that is bad enough she used being a stay at home mom (he allows her to stay in the family home and reside still not working) as being the reason she should only allow him to see his kids every other weekend!!!!  This man has worked a full time job 75 miles away from the family home in order to provide a comfortable life for his family and now she is trying to persecute him??!!  That is crazy!  I had to post my opinion on there that she had to remember the Father has just as much right to his sons as she does, and that the only reason she was a stay at home mom was because HE worked a lot!  It just truly ticked me off to read her post.  I had to share this with you guys, it's like every other woman that posted "Felt her pain" yeah right they all would feel the same way.  It just disgusts me and I am a soon to be mom and a step mom of 2 it just makes me sick the way some women think!!!!!

Glad you posted this cause I wasn't going to even consider watching it!  I am not a fan of Tom Cruise and didn't think it looked too good.  Now I will be going to watch it and make sure DH sees it as well.

If you don't return SS you risk violating visitation agreement.  I'd take it to court and get this corrected on paperwork for this and future issues like this.  It's worth the money to go on and just file, take the week too and you might get lucky with court.

Sorry I don't have any better advice.

My husband and I had to do everything without a lawyer.  His child support money was what paid for hers.  So in essence we paid for the attorney that made it possible to move out of state with his kids.  so yeah it can be done but I wouldn't advice it.  you tend to (for the lack of a better word) get screwed royally.
