Q: I need help filling out paperwork and how to navigate a sapcr in Texas.
The non custodial parent lives in New York and just visited the kids this year after being away since January 2020. The other parent refuses to co-parent with me and chooses to speak with my toxic family members. Just recently on March 10, he lied to a family member and it resulted in a false CPS report that is currently ongoing for abuse and neglect. On April 21, there is a hearing for child support to be established, but I want to control visitation, custody, and restrict him due to him causing harassment from my family. The father has no interest in parenting, and would much rather find a relationship or spend his money for himself. He has disparaged me on social media a few times, and didn't even see the children when he came to Texas in January 21, 2021. He spoke to my toxic family members and they are trying to get my children taken away. I really need to know how to handle this.
