My children ages 9 and 11 no longer want to see their dad. We were never married and he left when I was pregnant with 9 yr old. He came back when 9 yr old was 4 yrs old. He was not happy with the $600/month child support( $15,000 in arrears) so we came to an agreement that he would help with taking the kids weekends and wednesdays ( I have no family support) and I would lower his support to $ 100/month for both kids.( which we only get about 4 or 5 times a year)
It seems like he did not use this time to bond w the kids. My 11 yr old cries when she has to go to his house. My son stresses out also. Dad has never come to a concert, soccer game, conference, ect. He does not do anything or take them anywhere on his visitations.
In addition to letting his newly 16 yr old step-son drive them around he leaves them home alone with no phone. When I bring this up with him through text messages ( he refuses to talk to me) he lies and denies eveything, then the kids are punished for telling me.
How do I get the child custody visitation changed/ We do not have alot of money for an attorney? Is this the only way?
