1)Was it a mistake to agree to let the other party be the tempory residential parent if I want custody?
2)By agreeing to pay temporary child support does that mean I won't get custody?
3)If I can't afford amount of temp. sup. order what do I do?
4)If the conciliator says she recomends I get custody if I move back to town to my lawyer, what should I do?
5)Is there any way I can be let down by the recomendations?
6)Was it time to jump for joy when I got info on the conciliators recomendations?

Probably.

>won't get custody?

Paying temporary support demonstrates that you care about your child(ren)'s welfare, so this is a positive for you, from the court's viewpoint.

>3)If I can't afford amount of temp. sup. order what do I do?

File a motion to modify on grounds that the support amount does not accurately reflect the state's guideline support requirements.

>move back to town to my lawyer, what should I do?

Move back to town (assuming that you want custody, that is).

>5)Is there any way I can be let down by the recomendations?

The other parent can prove that the recommendations are not competent in some way, and the court would refuse to give them any weight in the final decision.


>6)Was it time to jump for joy when I got info on the
>conciliators recomendations?

Always expect the worst, and you will never be disappointed.

What can be done about me agreeing to let the other party be the
Temp. Res. Parent or should there be something done?

Nothing, unless you can show that you were tricked into agreeing by some deceit of the other party that you could not reasonably have discovered as the result of the use of the legal process (discovery), or, that the other parent is affirmitively acting against the child's best interests, and the child will suffer irreparable harm as a consequence.
