a question for those divorced with kids...
My bro in law was in an aweful 5 year marriage. They had 2 stillborna babies and then finally two beautiful kiddos. The Boy is 5 Today and the little girl is 3 After a very rocky 5 years, they split up for good after being off and on for most of that 5 years.
He joined the Army and is on his way to Iraq in the next few weeks. He is stationed in Washington State and ex lives in Kansas. He came back on the 22nd of December and stayed till the 3rd of Jan. X has been pretty relaxed on letting him see the kids when ever he is on leave (as she should because she pretty much gets half of what ever he earns including bonus) She also lets us see the kiddos when ever we want. We usually get them one weekend a month as we live 2 hours away. My QUESTION is... would any x keep you from seeing your kids? He made no attempt to see his kids at all during the time he was here because "he didn't want to deal with her bullshit" SO...he did not see them for Christmas nor did he spend any time with his son before his birthday WTF??? |

I am really ashamed of him that he made no attempt to see his kids. It is like since he joined the army, he has forgotten the last 7 years and forgotten that he has kids. He got together with all his buddies but not once saw his kids. GRRRRRRRRR I am so mad. I practically raised the son when he was 6 months old till he was 3 as the bro in law lived with us and had him 90 % of the time. I love that boy like he was my own, and if given the choice, that boy would gladly live with me. |

I really don't think she would have made too big a deal over it as she has moved on with a steady eddie the last year. I think he just didn't want to have responsibility, cause most of the time he was back, he was partying with the guys. I will just have to be super aunt and love them as much as I can |

Exactly! No one would keep me from seeing my kids.

Yes. My ex husband did. It was the only thing left in the world he could control me with. I was almost a widow.

I had to get a lawyer to get my ex to give me regular visitation. She fought me the entire way.

Sorry if that's a downer, hopefully things will stay great. Lots of people do manage to make it work and realize it should be about the kid and not about who can win a fight.
