Please see my other posts (jurisdiction, children’s house, etc.) I guess I will not have to test any of the theories on litigation as the children’s father and I settled on a custody/child support agreement through mediation on Friday. It was finally a win/win for everyone involved. Again, if you can offer your STBX a big enough carrot to use collaborative law with you, I would recommend that you do so and avoid litigation at all costs. Thank you, Helena, for your answers to some (if not all) of my questions. And thank you to everyone who read and responded to my posts, even if we did not agree. I appreciated your input! Blessings to you all and may you find wholeness in your relationships!
