I will keep your stepson andyour family in my prayers. It sucks that you have to go to court. You know i am 26 my parents have not been together for about 20 years. I wish judge would know what it feels like to not see the other parent that much. my mom and my dad have a very bad past and because of it I and my sister/brother have had a hard life and am sorry I think that it is kinda of judges fault. my dad got the EOW and thats it. 4 days a month. Can someone tell me how a child and get a nice strong relationship with a parent that way. How can the child feel like they are at home when they are there only for 4 nights. I guess I don't get it. We get my sd for 8nights a month sometimes more like this month. We will have her 12 nights this month. next month for 11 nigths. then back to the 8 nights and I know to some of you that is a lot. But when you live 5 mins apart and sd wants to see you more, it's hard to. SO good luck to you and keep us updated.
