My Ex-husband and I have joint custody of 1 daughter. We were divorced 10 years ago and then he was arrested for domestic violence, once and I had to take out 2 protective orders against him. Over the past
10 years he has dragged me into court at least 8 times for contempt of this or contempt of that. I have never been found in contempt of anything and I have never taken him to court for anything. I ignore him
and the more I ignore him the angrier he gets. He was ordered during
one of the court appearences to take a parenting class because it came out he was verbally abusive to my daughter. Two days ago, he called me
to come pick up my daughter from her summer vacation visitation.When I got there the police told me that he and his girfriend got into a slug fest
and they were charging them both with simple battery and cruelty to
children, because my daughter saw this and was very upset. This is the second time this has happened. Last year he called me to come pick her up because they were fighting, but no police were involved. He was able to bond out yesterday, but I found out today that his girlfriend can't bond out because she is on probation for theft by taking and receiving and is suppose to be in some drug rehab place. Nice Yuh! My ex is truly messed up in the head and I know when he gets to court this will all be my fault. Even though he called the police probably thinking they would just arrest her. I am at the end of my rope and I have tried not cause any stress to my daughter, but I feel that mentally he is getting worse and I am concerned for her safety.
Do you think I have a chance of getting full custody and supervised visitation with these developements. My daughter is eleven and told the police officer that she never wanted to go back to her Dad's house.
