[US] Does anyone else's ex do this ? Make it make sense.

Has anyone out there, as a non custodial, ever wanted custody but the ex deny it and deny 50/50 , make things high conflict yet at every chance she can get, offer the kids to you as much as she can without allowing you to get any support back or any room for modification.

My ex has 65/35. Has final say in all 4 , has a clause where if sje doesnt override me (she always does ) then after 3 days of no.reply from me she gets to make the choice anyways.

Like why smear me then offer me so much off the record for time, why not be honest with the judge and just make it official in court ???

[Western Australia] 5 year old exposed to pornography by her dad

3 Upvotes

My 5 year old daughter spends 50% time at her dads. We have been separated for 4 years. We separated because he was sexually and emotionally abusive towards me.

She came back to my house with his old phone that she told me she uses to take pictures. I was

She unlocked the phone and wanted to show me how she uses it. Immediately she almost opened a saved pornhub tab on the internet. I confiscated the phone and looked through it. She has been taking photos on it for 6 months (camera roll stamped with time and date). One some occasions she was taking pictures at 10pm or 11pm at night.

Within the camera roll is his entire life- videos of him masturbating, screenshots of graphic pornography, videos of women naked and performing sexual acts. She has also taken multiple pictures of him completely naked while he grins at the camera. There are images on her siting on his lap and they are both completely naked

This has been going on since January from what I can see on the camera roll.

I called child protection and they "investigated" by calling him and asking if there was anything to worry about, to which he said "no". And the case was closed.

I feel sick knowing that my daughter has been exposed to this. I have applied to have his overnight stays removed from him. Do you think I will be successful? Court is in 2 weeks time

[WI] Serious frustration with the family court system!

4 Upvotes

I just am wondering if anyone else is completely fed up with trying to navigate the court system?

I have filed multiple motions, showed up to court by myself, never received child support, I can’t afford a lawyer, and STILL the system only cares about the process and not PROTECTING my child!! The other parent has a police record of 10 years worth of narcotics abuse, prior CPS case of which he lost custody of another child, and open cases against him currently... This judge just told me that we haven’t tried hard enough to COPARENT!! How am I supposed to protect my child from this disaster?!
