Re: please help

Document the times he is bringing him home. Do not speak to him about it directly but speak to your lawyer about it so that it can be further documented.

If he brings the child home more than 1 hour late make a report to police about it so that it is documented.

You can also document it using a video camera in which you speak in front of a TV so as to cover the time and that the child is still not home. Then film when the child comes home. Do not engage the idiot in a yelling match. Document the returns and go back to court. Ask for supervised visits after that. He will get the point.

If you would like to speak to me further about this matter, you can contact me through the links below.
