If his lawyer is decent he will start pushing for some overnights once the child turns 18 months, and for a 2/2/3 schedule at 3 years old. If Dad continues living nearby, is consistent with his current visitation and continues to pursue shared custody as the child gets older, it is extremely likely he will wind up with 50/50, or something close. While New Jersey is not a 50/50 default state at the moment, I would be very surprised if a couple who were married and where there weren't substantial concerns about one parent (drugs, sexual or physical abuse against a child) did not wind up with shared legal custody and something close to 50/50 physical custody. So exhausted and disgusted by Dad’s false allegations with made up proofs. My lawyer totally screwed up big time at the motion hearing so I’m in a bad place to refight this battle. Is there a fellow NJ parent who has gone through a similar battle? Do you think I have a chance to become a primary residential custodian with the majority of the child’s time? Will it be possible to give a visitation schedule to Dad so that he sees the child every other weekend for the full weekend instead of every other day? Even when he gets older, I really feel that he needs to have a primary home where he feels home to be able to be stable rather than being tossed around every other day.ĭad is only asking for 50:50 to reduce his child support, but the NJ Court obviously wants to give an equal custody between the parents whenever possible. He’s only an 11mo and he needs stability and consistency. I seriously think that this current alternating day schedule with M,W,F and T,T,S is not in child’s best interest. My goal is to become a primary residential custodian with at least 80% of my son’s time with me with visitations from his dad happening every other weekend, allowing a maximum of 4 overnights per month. now where he has to alternative his days between me and his dad. Considering his age, I realize that it’s normal to show separation anxiety, but the level is definitely different when he’s been with me all week vs. Doesn’t smile much, and literally glued to me like he has a separation anxiety. Also, he acts differently when he comes home from his dad’s place. He comes home with his face red and his voice coarse from extended crying. My son is having a very difficult time adjusting to this new schedule where he has to spend at different places every single day during the week. (He didn’t call or come visit the child for since his move out and accused me for keeping the child hostage.) And the Judge granted the following parenting time to Dad and the rest to Mom: Mon, Wed, Fri 8am-6pm, with the thought of giving overnights later on at the hearing of a pendente lite motioned filed by my ex. My asked for the following parenting time: Mon 9am-Tue 9am, Wed 9am-Thu 9am, Fri 9am-5pm. We’re both working full-time, currently working from home due to pandemic. I’m asking for a sole residential and legal custody. He is asking for 50:50 shared legal and residential custody with him being the primary residential custodian. My ex moved out in June and filed for divorce in July. We’ve been married for 5 yrs and have an 11mo son together. It’s been an extremely tough and lonely battle, and it’s relieving to see that I’m not the only one fighting this battle. Just found this forum a couple days ago and has been reading posts non-stop. Hi, first time posting something on reddit.
