Obviously I can push the personality disorder angle, and the anger management problem. I would like to not have to do that. My attorney is already bringing that up with regards to refusing the request for 50/50, in her letter to the BUMDs atorney. I wish he would just agree to do some variation of what we're already doing... I would agree on a higher level, even 20/80, to cut his support down, if he would just agree to do what he's capable of. Like my attorney told me yesterday- none of this is permanent at all (why even have COs, I think), so the arrangement could be tweaked if we both agreed. He could either continue some variation of the present 3 evening a week, where he's not forced to try to do overnights, or cut it back to a standard 1 evening a week, EOW... but he'd see them less. It's too bad he's approached it this way, as I can be a perfectly reasonable person who could be very flexible about letting him take them to family events regardless of whose days they fall on, or I can follow a CO and say sorry, not your parenting time. His choice, I guess.
It's ironic that it's come to this point, as many of our conflicts over the years has been about his poor parenting skills, his anger issues, and his role as a fulltime father. Everyone who knows us has said he's never acted like anything more than a 'weekend dad', like we were already divorced. It's possible the last time we were divorcing I could have gotten full custody, as he wasn't asking for much, and was pretty emotionally unstable. I kick myself everyday that I gave him another chance, only to get letdown again, and now stuck in an ugly mess.
