DH is leaving today around 330p to go and pick up his daughter for this weekend/holiday visit...!

I am not able to travel with him this time as i am at work this time since i rotated and let the other folks in the office be off for the long weekend.

ANYWAYS.... We will see how this pick up goes. DH has taken the camcorder with him that he will have on from the time he pulls up to when he leaves.

Last weekend she told DH that he should not get SD because SD wanted to go with her and not him. Then when he told her he would follow the court order and exercise his visit, it was she wanted SD to see some long lost uncle who was coming in town and to bring her back on Sunday. DH once again told her he would be following the court order which states - He brings her back on Monday if the holiday is on that day.

So now it was he had to meet her at 5 - which she knows that I am not off until 430 so i will not be riding with him.

Mind you she filed a custody court case against us - so i am nervous for DH. Hence him taking the camcorder.

I am hoping she just plays it cool and drives to the right exit and does not have her normal drama as usual.

My DH & I have been dealing with things like that for 10 years now. And our situation has gotten a little worse. The DH & I decided in '08 to move to Oklahoma. Well, SD15 & SD12 came to visit for 3 weeks in July. I had to drive to PA to pick them up and bring them to OK. And yes, the ex only gave us 3 weeks to visit with them. Well, during their visit here, SD15 decided that she wanted to stay. At first the ex was agreeing to voluntarily give DH custody of SD15. Then after about a week of discussing the details, the ex changed her mind. And said that the only SD15 could stay was if we filed for custody through court. Well, that set SD15 off and she ended up disclosing some disturbing information to me about her SD. We had our court hearing for custody on August 7th. The judge granted full custody to the BM, even after the SD15 disclosed the info about SD. Well needless to say, SD15 went off again in the court house. So, the BM decided to give custody of SD15 to DH, if DH would agree to let SD12 stay with BM. It is now September 4th, almost a month after our hearing and we still have no legal documents proving DH has full custody. BM is still working out the details for in the court order. She is basically giving custody to DH, but saying what he can and can't do. She is also including in the order, that I SM, can not sign anything concerning SD15. Including report cards, test papers teachers want signed, or anything else requiring a parent or guardian signature. And if I do, she will sue me.

I truly feel for you in your situation. Because I have been dealing with things like that for 10 years. DH keeps telling me that the situation with SD15, is only for 3 more years. And with SD12, it won't be as bad bc she is still with BM. Unless she realizes one day that BM has been lying to her and wants to live with us. I hope things work out for you & your DH. Best of Luck!
