wmw999 2,589 #5 October 24, 2002 It would only be until they turned 18. That's not permanent. I did it not because of a custody battle, but just because it turned into an issue between us. Now I've started again. WendyThere is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

TequilaGirl 0 #8 October 24, 2002 You would not have to wait until they are 18 - most states will let the children choose where they want to live around 14........ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skymama 37 #10 October 24, 2002 If you love your children enough to go to court for them probably means they are your first priority. It's a silly question.She is Da Man, and you better not mess with Da Man, because she will lay some keepdown on you faster than, well, really fast. ~Billvon Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,589 #11 October 24, 2002 Absolutely true they can choose at 14. However, it's best if you can maintain a decent relationship with your ex, for a host of reasons. It's not always possible, and you certainly don't want to compromise something basic, but it really really helps the kids. They can also change their mind, and learn to play the parents off one another about that age. Makes being home often even more important. Not that they want to actually TALK to you (heaven forbid!), but if you're there it's often a good thing. Wendy W.
