My question involves a child custody case from the State of: MS
My ex-wife just served me papers and I am very angry. I have supported our child since our divorce and compromise when she wants to change days or time. I drive to pick him up 90% of the time--she lives 45 minutes away. Now, she wants to reduce visitation time to every other weekend. I get him once during the week. She is wanting increased support--I just filed bankruptcy in July because of reduced hours at my job. (I have not increased money or anything in the past 3 years, since our last child custody dispute.) Then to top it all off, she is stating I exhibit "poor parenting" because my girlfriend of two years just moved in with me. My ex and I have been divorced for 5+ years. She cheated on me with her current husband. There isn't a clause in our divorce for "no overnight" guests, etc. She also is dragging my personal life into it....I am a guy and I drink beer. I am not an alcoholic and I do not get drunk around our son. I am just tired of getting dragged to court when she gets mad about something that she cannot control. She tries to control what goes on at my house and recently got our son a cell phone. If he gets mad at me, he'll go to his room and start texting her. She also tells him that I do not care for him and our son is beginning to act out with me. Our son is 10. He is my ex's only child. My girlfriend does not have any children, has a doctorate, and has a career. My gf is not a bad influence on our son either....in fact, my son likes her a lot.
Question: Will a judge actually rule that our son is better off in a reduced visitation although I have faithfully paid for support? Is it really THAT BAD that my gf lives with me? We know it isn't ideal, but we're both in our 30's and do not wish to re-marry, right now. Thanks for any support/advice.
