Thanks again for more info, however I think that you read my post or took things in the wrong way. The situation between her and I is quite complex and too "in depth" to explain on a message board post.
She just finished her divorce around the last week of May or the first week of June. Sometime around there. So she has not had to support the child on her own for any amount of time really. The divorce papers actually said that She has sole physical custody of him and they have joint legal custody. The father has visitation to include but not limited to weekends. She had this idea of moving to the West coast and somehow had this idea in her head that she would get school years and he would get summers and holidays. Her idea was to leave Virginia around June and let the father have his custody or time with the child first. "No the divorce papers don't say anything about summers or school years." The father however has no objection of letting her take the child to California in a few weeks. He is however giving her a hard time about letting her have him during the school years. The father cannot even afford his own residence and lives in a two bedroom apartment with 2 other family members, meaning the child shares a room with the father. There has to be a "child living condition" consideration somewhere?
As far as child support goes she has realized that she should have had it included in her original divorce agreement, especially now that she's going to be on her own and has to pay for everything herself. this whole thing is confusing actually. The way she has to go about filing for child support sounds like a big hassle and doubtful in her behalf.
As far as me being involved with her, I was under the impression that she was allowing the father to have his custody or "time" with the child first while she got established in CA. I did not look at it as if she was "abonding" her child. I was UN-Aware that she was risking her awarded custody. I had no clue. Now I do, and now I still think she has the upper card because all she has to do is jump through the hoops to bring her son to CA. Anyhow..... Got me?
