My sons father is everything BUT that.
My son is 9 months old and I decided before he was born not to be with his father. He was there for the birth and spent the first 2-3 weeks coming to visit our son about 2 times a week. Then it started getting less and less and to this date he has only seen him about 15-20 times. He told me he wanted to start seeing him again so I would get off his back about nothing being a good father. We got a court order that we "share" custody of our son.He was supposed to get him once a week during the week and every other Saturday for a couple hours. Then after a month of doing this he could then have him every other weekend 1 over night. The court date was in June and it is now September. He hasn't called or come to pick up his son since a week after mothers day in May. Even after the court date when he was to come get him he hasn't followed through with the papers. He told me he would give up his visitations if I would drop the child support, but as much as I'd like that I can't financially take care of him on my own. He is married already and has another child on the way in December. I wanted to know that since he hasn't seen him or called that if there is a certain time that I could go to the judge and explain to him the situation if he would grant me full custody, and take away his visitations and still pay child support. I know I can't terminate his rights because I do not have anyone to adopt him. But is there a way I can get his visitations taken away after so long of him not following through with the papers and even if he doesn't agree with it can the judge just do what is best for my son?
