Here's the problem with that: I assume she had the conversation on her account, which you have no legal right to access. If you try to use that in court, they're going to ask how you obtained access to it.
If the law is being broken or there is a valid threat, counselors will break confidence for a court hearing. I'd subpoena him immediately.Quote:
She still believes drugs are OK, and has told me she wouldn't care if she caught our son doing them. I have emails of her demanding I give her money, or my phone, or I can't see my son. The marriage counselor we had gone to (and didn't go again because she didn't want to, she wanted to see a psychiatrist because they perscribe meds) well he has since made it known he is willing to break confidence because he felt very concerned by some of the things she had said.
While this might make her a not-so-nice person, the court will not view this as bad parenting.Quote:
I have legitimate concerns about her ability to care for our son in the long term. She is living with her grandparents at the moment, who are very controlling and even her mother(my soon to be ex wife's mother) has said that she does not want them having anything to do with taking care of our son.
She has no job, as far as I know, and is generally a very trashy person. She will wear the same clothes for a week straight. She will blow her money on self indulgent items. And refuse me getting anything for our son.
Welcome to Family Court! My husband has been accused of being an alcoholic, physically abusive towards the children and I, a deadbeat father, uninvolved with his children, a cheating husband, etc. It doesn't stop.Quote:
I have conversations with her, with her telling me that her whole family thinks she is crazy and needs to see a psychiatrist. And her saying that maybe she does etc.
She has now resorted to lies to keep me from seeing my son, or being able to take him over night.
1) my parents smoke around the baby. Which is not now, or ever true.
2) if the above is dispelled, then my friends will do drugs around him. Which again is not true, and I have told the 2 friends I have that might do drugs, if I ever smell it, or feel they are on anything, they will not be allowed over
And 3) she is afraid I'm going to take him, and run. My lawyer thinks that is BS, because if it were true, she wouldn't let me see him at all. (this last week before court I get to see him 2hrs at a neutral place 4 times.) But that was set up by the lawyers.
You're probably right about the visitation. Her lawyer is telling her that concealing the child from you is going to hurt her case.Quote:
I believe her lawyer is the reason I have seen my son at all.
Also, her lawyer has only been practicing in Texas for 2 years, mine 26 years. So I am hoping experience helps.
You mentioned he's been practicing in Texas for 2 years - is that how long he's been out of law school, or merely in Texas?
Again, this is hearsay. You can't testify to this; her attorney will get it stopped immediately.Quote:
Also I have chats with her, of her describing how her mom abused her (mostly emotionally) and how she has since done the same to me, telling me constantly that she wishes my mother would die, and my friends are all child molestors. (all of my friends are parents, with visitation or custody, and have never had such a complaint) \
Again - this is her personal life. Her taking a picture of herself doesn't mean she's a bad parent. You're going to need something better than a picture you don't approve of.Quote:
also, I can see her "recent uploads" on photo bucket, and in the last 50 pictures, maybe 10 are of our son, while the rest are of herself(presumably to send to her new bf) and the new boyfriend. Just today there is a naked picture (from chest up without showing nipple)
What does your attorney say to all of this?Quote:
sigh... it feels like she is digging a hole, but it just does not feel like that hole is big enough yet.
