I realize that the advice I recieve I take with a grain of salt, does not constitute any agreement between me, the Reader and the poster, isn’t binding etc.
My wife and I have been seperated for over one and a half now. My 8 year-old son is currently living her. We are still married on paper and no one has actual custody on paper.
I have been planning a trip to Cleveland for about two to three months now. Before I even started planning I had asked her if it would be OK to take him on the yearly trip up there. I took him last year with no problem from her and figured it would be OK now. She said yes. I have bought the tickets and have everything set up. I have kept my estranged wife updated on the details. We were supposed to leave Wednesday morning. Everthing was going fine until a few moments ago she called me up and informed my that he will not be traveling anywhere. That he was grounded. I implored her to let him go but she would not budge.
Am I stuck with her decision? Seeing as that I am a responsible father who always pays his child support on time even though there is no court order to pay, who picks him up whenever she lets me, which is only every other weekend, do I have no say so in his life decisions? Can any one help me out with some advice here?
I apologize if this post is incoherent and full of misspellings. I am so worked up now it isn’t funny. If any further info is needed please ask.
