My 161/2 daughter ran away from her fathers home he has primary custody. There were many things leading up to her leaving but after working with her therapist she is adamant about not ever going back to live with him.
I live 350 miles away and went and picked her up. She left 13 days before finishing her sophomore year but I was able to put her in summer school for 2 weeks and she completed her sophomore year with A's.
She won't talk to her father or have anything to do with him. She left her mouth retainer behind. Her teeth are hurting and her dad will not send it until she talks to him. They have been playing phone tag. Regardless he is holding her retainer hostage until she talks to him and he knows how bad her mouth is hurt.
I have never seen my daughter have so much anger and pain. She says she hates him and I can't get her to call him. In the mean time I am paying child support and have no idea about what my next move is. Money is a huge issue as far as lawyers go. But I have to do something. This man has made my life hell ever since he won custody. He has controlled every conversation and letter my daughter and I have ever shared. What do I do, he still pushes my buttons but I need the child support I pay him for my daughter. This was all done in Lane County in Eugene OR. I now live in Umatilla county. Help what do I do to protect my daughter from having to go back and how do I modify child support order.
