Every Wednesday I get to see my son from 5 PM to 8 PM. Unfortunately, I often find myself getting off work late, then having to deal with rush hour traffic for a 50 mile commute to see my son, which then eats up the time I have with him on that day. When I do pick him up, I either take him to Chucky Cheese Pizza, McDonald's, the mall, or the park, even walking around Walmart. It was working out ok until the weather got bad and the sun sets earlier. Then he got sick so my ex was ok with me playin… Continue

This is the first week that I won't get to see my son for 7 days!! The longest period that I have not seen him. When my ex and I mediated, I agreed to give her one weekend a month. This has been a long weekend for me. I had a dream that my lil' boy was running towards me just like he always does when I go pick him up from his mother's place. It's been really hard on me these past days.


On another note, I finally had a chance to run to the courthouse records dept and got a copy of my ex's child… Continue

I am so grateful for having such wonderful parents, family members, and friends, especially all the iheartsingleparents out there that have been so supportive in my yearlong ordeal. You don't know how appreciative I feel. Thank you all!

A special thank you goes out to my parents,my sister and brother. My parents are incredible people. I am truly lucky to have them in my life. First, just fresh out of med school and with no money, my parents helped me get an attorney. Then I moved in with my sis… Continue

I went through a painful mediation process yesterday with my ex. It was painful in so many ways, particularly all the lies that my ex said. And I felt that the case manager that conducted the home study was very biased against me. She recommended that I take a 12 wk domestic violence class "just to be safe rather than sorry," after my ex lied so many times about how "violent" I am. My ex even went so far as to accuse me of carrying a canister of gasoline and threaten to set the house on fire, th… Continue

I've been trying to convince my ex to go to mediation but it looks like she's not interested in it. Right now I see my son Wednesday evening from 5 pm to 8 pm, then I pick him up Friday at 8 pm and drop him back 8 pm Saturday. I think it's not enough time to spend with him. I'm just asking for an extra day a week, or even 2 extra days a month!! Like every other Sunday to have a full weekend with him. Well, my ex thinks it's better that we settle this in court even despite all the court costs. If… Continue
