Actually, I didn't "stick" her with the kids (and no offense intended...I know that wasn't pointed at me)...in fact, I'd much rather have them with me...I was even asking my son about this idea this past weekend. I'd gladly take the kids on FULL TIME without asking for A SINGLE PENNY from that ex-wife of mine. > My advice was for his own sake and the happiness of his children not for > accountability.

I'd feel much better if they did. I meet with my lawyer this weekend and will ask about such remedy. You're right about her not wanting to be accountable...that's for darn sure. Problem is--from what I can tell, unless she's a crack-whore or terrible parent of some sort, the courts won't award me custody. ??? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
