Sorry to hear about this, OP, divorce and child custody disputes are almost never a pretty thing. I can only caution against using your own experience to form sweeping judgments insofar as "the system" is concerned. I grew up watching my rich father basically shit all over my mother for 18+ years, so it is important that we avoid improper extrapolation in the search for solace. When it comes down to it, all that matters are the people involved: the mother, the father, those who represent each side and those who arbitrate. The specific state in which it happens also matters I suppose.

Most certainly can do that for you. I know sometimes it'll get drawn out or over-extensive, but I'll do the best I can to not make it so.

Ive had a few people actually tell me to blog about stuff that has happened in my life from competing in Courage league in KR, to military times, to travels, and this unfortunate event.

First of all, I was to say that I'm really, really sorry you're going through this. It sucks how everything can go all screwy sometimes.

I... hate to be so nit-picky, but I get more done in the half an hour after my son (almost two) goes to bed than I do the rest of the day, too. Things that should take you 10 minutes suddenly take all day. I'm serious. (And I'm bringing my own baggage here, so please take that into account.)
It sounds like she has some serious mental issues, probably triggered by one of the pregnancies. I hope she gets help for that.

It makes me sick that she's spending the money on herself. My ex stole three months of my son's government money when we first split up, and I'm still not getting child support (I have our son 6-7 days a week), nor has he paid that back. (We live in Canada, so we get some money every month, that's supposed to go towards child care, food, clothes, education savings, etc.)

And... your check list at the bottom of your post looks spot on. I can't believe some of the BS my ex comes to court with. Everyone I've talked to has said the same thing. When the other parent knows they're gonna lose (and I really do hope she does, for the child's sake, based on what you've written), they start panicking and spinning half-lies, which turn into full-lies. I hate it.
Are you satisfied getting by with just enough? Or are you ready to start trying?

Hey Rob, long time no see. How's things been going for you? For me, see above haha other than that its been going ok.

Dagwon - She was at one point supposedly diagnosed with bi-polar disorder but never took medication for it. Just something the court will dig up eventually, just takes time.

I'm glad my check-list is spot on. I just hope others can take the advice and experiences that I've gone through and use it to their advantage.

Things have been good. Work has been keeping me pretty busy, we're in the middle of some big upgrades with all of our shit so I've been pulling rather long days for the past month. Hopefully we're getting through the worst of it soon though.

I've moved almost entirely away from playing sc2 anymore, the time I spend gaming now is broodwar or whatever random fps my younger brother is obsessed with. I can't just play a little sc2, I lose too much and just get angry/feel a need to play more.

Been working out a ton more too, mainly running...running in a marathon in October so training for that through the summer will keep me busy.

I read that in some post you talked about quitting. Best of luck to you with it. If you ever come back to SC2 let me know, me and Bongmicro are in the process of a start-up More to come on that later though <3

SC is like sex. You should play often, but never too hard. And you should only try hard when it matters.

Nope, I didn't read this blog so I assumed you still were stationed @ the base south of Cocoa Beach.

Fight on. The most important thing is that your child knows that you are a good father.

From there, your ex-wife has no chance.

I don't think I've ever talked to you directly but I've seen you around on SC and you've always seemed like a nice guy. Pisses me off that the world can be this fucked up sometimes.

For some reason, I have faith that in the end, justice is always served somehow. It probably doesn't mean much, but I truly hope things can end up fine for you.

Maybe I missed some of the parts in this blog but what the fuck is your attorney doing during all of this. How much have you invested into an attorney and if you have a decent one there should be no problem getting custody in the long run. It will be a pain in the ass for sure but it will happen in Washington.

Washington is overall a pretty shitty place to be a dude trying to get custody though. You should PM me some more details if you might need a new/better attorney. My mom is one of the top family law attorneys in the state.

Sorry to hear about all your troubles. My bro had a similar story to this. Came home to his wife in texas and found out she had been cheating and stuff. Caused all sorts of problems for him and made his life hell. Hopefully things will work out for you in the end and you can put the crazy lady behind you.

In addition to being a critique of the legal system, this can also serve as a reminder: Be very, very, very careful who you marry, and/or knock up. Don't get blinded by love or hot poontang and end up with a succubus. I know so many guys who married terrible women and are paying for it.
Nine in 10 members of the U.S. House and Senate who sought new terms in office this year were successful, improving their record for re-election even as public approval of Congress sank to all-time lows.

Sounds awful. I hope you can get custody. Your ex should not only lose custody but pay some penalty for such abuse toward both you and your daughter.

I've invested a little over 10k into my attorney as opposed to my ex-wife who did $1200 and then in turn he went into court and made a formal request to relinquish himself as representation. So what that means to break it down to ones who may not, her attorney quit on her after a few weeks.

My attorney is a nationally recognized individual who has the means of representing in various aspects.

National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (NACDL), Member
Washington Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers (WACDL), Member
Washington Women Lawyers, Member (This one specifically is a huge plus because of the situation, which is the reason I opted for her).

And aside from this both circuit and Supreme Court representation.

I won't drop the name of the firm or anything because overall they have done a outstanding job, but its just been a long waiting game with this investigator process.

Overall, my attorney doesnt want to file any injuctions or contempt motions against my ex mainly because one, it'll cost more money and time, two its still going to happen after the fact and three it supposedly makes me look like a better person by not doing anything about it.
