    Unhappy They're still not home......

    My ex-husband had the kids for a visit and he has not brought them home yet. They were supposed to be home between last Wednesday and Friday. He has left these rude taunting messages telling me that he is getting back at me and will bring them back when he gets ready. I have called the cops, and my lawyer and the only thing I can do is spend $1000 to have a special hearing. A thousand dollars!!!!!

    I feel absolutely ill constantly and I am crabby at work, and not doing my best there. I don't really have the thousand, but might be able to scrape it together by the middle of September. He does have a short attention span where they are concerned, and I am sure they will bore hi or cost him money and he will bring them home, but I am at the end of my rope.

    Karen, I am so sorry he's putting you through this. I hate it when parents use their kids to get back at their ex's. He's a jerk.

    Document the calls & save them. Document that you've called the police. When he does give them back (and he will, he doesn't really want them he just wants to make you pay) it will only look worse on him for the next time a visitation hearing comes up.

    I can't believe there's nothing the police can do. What good is a visitation & custody ruling if they aren't going to enforce it??

    Is he in violation of his visiation rights? Could he be considered a kidnapper? Are they somewhere were you could drive up and have them get in the car?
    Are they back in school yet? Could you pick them u from there?

    You poor thing. My DD went thru something similar. I am guessing your ex is just trying to flex his muscles & still show he is "in control" in this one area of his life. The girls need to go to school soon, right? So they should be back soon. Hopefully your lawyer can give you good advice on how to handle this once the girls are back safe and sound. Maybe no overnight visits?? Good luck.

    Aw, I really can feel for you! My ex was a jerk about custody too. Yet he never fought me getting full custody.
    I agree with the other ladies here. Document everything! And I hope things work out well for you!

    I'm so sorry you're having to go through this. I can't begin to imagine how stressful something like that would be. You'll be in my thoughts and prayers.

    I'm so sorry he's doing this, men like this are lower than low! They don't consider the kids and the harm they're doing to them, they're IDIOTS!

    Again, so sorry, know that you're in my thoughts today and hopefully by tonight he'll have them home!

    I'm so sorry that you are having to endure this. I know you want them back home with you. Have you been able to speak with your girls? If you spoke with them and knew they were fine, maybe you could relax a little. Your ex just wants to be in control. Do document all the things that happen in case you have to go back to court.
