my ex says her and her husband have better jobs in alabama. And have the job letters to prove it. Can i have the judge call jobs they claim to have down there? Will she call them if i say i have doubts and dont believe the letters are real?

If you want to fight for this child GET AN ATTORNEY you have little to no past with the child and a judge is not calling anyone on your behalf - GET AN ATTORNEY - an attorney can call on your behalf - with your spotty past you really NEED an attorney if you REALLY want this child in your life you need to REALLY work on it otherwise take what you can get and try to do more later or just walk away again as you did in the beginning.
You are in Washington state - I am from Washington state and it is PRO female all the way especially with your past history involvement - if you REALLY want anything - GET AN ATTORNEY
Good Luck

Heck, I would just set up the parenting plan, then move to where mom moves to, and get a job there. It would be cheaper and more efficient.

Actually, that is a wonderful idea. Move where your child is - that would really prove that the child is your top priority.

i dont know anyone down there. My family is here and so is my ex's. If i moved my wife and kids from her home state back to mines why would i move them again to where my ex resides once she moves? Thats like im choosing my ex over my wife and kids. They dont want to be here in washington i do.

You just don't get it, you are not chosing your ex - you are chosing your child.
I'm not saying you moving is possible but it is a wonderful idea.

My ex attempted a long distance move to live with her boyfriend 175 miles away. Unknown to her (to this day), I already had an apt. picked out a block away, and a job lined up. In state moveaways are easy to get where I live, but she blew it so badly in mediation, she backed down...probably by the advice of her attorney.
The point is, I was going to parent those children no matter where she took them.
Clearly, the OP is not willing to make the sacrifices that will be needed to remain an active parent.
