Dear tryleigh:

Greetings. Well, you can hire an attorney in Maine to take up your cause and get you more time with the child, or you can agree to take the five (5) weeks per year. Thank you.

My husband has two children, his daughter’s bio mom is nowhere to be found and he has sole custody of her, we are currenlt looking into me adopting her, his son lives with his bio mother right now which is my husbands ex-wife. My husband re-joined the ARMY last October and has tried to get his son to come and live with us ever since. At this point in time I am pregnant and due in May of this year, my husbands ex-wife is refusing to let the son even come and visit us in NC from Maine. She has an attorney who says unless we agree to only 5 weeks of visitation out of the 52 week year, then we will not get to see the son at all! We don’t want to take the 5 weeks, we want more of course and so does the son of 4 years, but at the same time we don’t want to risk never seeing him…what should we do?
