My boyfriend has sole legal custody of his 2 year old son. The mother has supervised visitations ( the person that was ordered to be the supervisor is her sister) every Wednesday from 530 to 730 and the first three saturdays a month. When she does show up to pick their son up she is always 30-60 minutes late without a phone call. She is always very rude to my boyfriend and when he tries to communicate with her about their son, she tells him to leave her alone and not to talk to her. What rights does he have to not let her see him and if that was to happen what can she do to him to get him in trouble? Not only is this a hassle every time she shows up but it puts my own kids in front of how she is around my boyfriend. Last week she even dropped their son off with a different outfit and when my boyfriend asked her what happened she flipped him off and got in her car and drove away with no explanation. He got in the road to block her to get an answer (something I know he shouldn't have done) and she stopped pulled out a camera and took pictures. Then she drover around him and left. What can we do about her?

All you can really do at this point is to keep a journal of the visitations make note of when she is on time and when she is late or misses the visit all together. Once you have a good record of that your boyfriend can petition the court to take away her visitation but it isn't likely to be granted because her attitude toward him doesn't really matter as long as the kid is cared for and since they are supervised visits you could ask her sister to testify as to her behavior with the child but as long as she doesn't serve as a danger to her son then the judge would really laugh at an argument over a change in cloths.

Why can't adults see how badly they screw up their children's lives?

She is their mother, not simply an inconvenience to you and your boyfriend.

He has no right to keep her away from her own children, unless she is a danger to them or to herself.

Not only have they lost their two parent loving home, they are having to watch their father help raise your kids, while they get to only "visit" their own mother.

And then to have to sit and watch and listen while the adults behave like a bunch of spoiled little brats, God help them!

1. Supervised visits mean that the person doing the supervision has to be there when the child is picked up. If the person doing the supervision is not there, they don't get the child.
