Q: My sons dad texted me and wants nothing more to do with our child. What are my options?
We just went through mediation almost a month ago. Since then my son went to the first visit, afterthat his dad would come up with an excuse or ask me to keep him. Yesterday when I asked if he was coming to see his son, he stated our child was a mistake and wants nothing more to do with him. I would like to go about this in the smartest way possible because it is such a delicate matter.

A: If there are no court orders in place, you all could come to an agreement indicating you have sole custody and all parenting time. If there are orders in place, you could modify those orders via an agreement, stipulation, granting you those same things. If he thinks giving up his time will also get him out of paying child support he is thinking wrongly.
