How often if at all am I "required" to have my children call their father - I have temporary full custody. They are small, both under 8 yrs. old.
In the beginning, he would text/call a few times a day, about twice a week - and I would ask my kids to call back. If ever they did not respond immediately, he would complain to his lawyer that I was "attempting to alienate the kids from him".
He lied in his affidavit (said I used to beat him up with a bat and that I'm also so angry that I break other people's property during my "uncontrollable tantrums" - BTW, I'm all of 5 feet and 100lbs.) He also claims that my children are not fed.
Anywhoo, during the time, he began interrogating the kids - asking them what I fed them, where I took them, who was there, what they saw on tv...etc, etc. I noticed that my older one would get stressed out when talking to him on the phone.
I informed my lawyer and she asked through his lawyer that he stop questioning the children. He continued harassing me through text, so I requested via email that he no longer text me - unless for emergencies and that I would have kids CALL HIM every other day, no need for him to text me.
Well, he has begun once again interrogating the kids and now also takes it upon himself to have them tell me how I should go about taking care of them - kids will come and tell me for ex: "Daddy says to give me tylenol and an ice pack for the elbow that I bumped earlier today" - Mr man, BTW never took care of these things while we were married.
Basically, my question is - what to do now, if we solved the problem of his texting me but the questioning and interfering continues. I feel as though he is intruding in our daily lives. When the kids go with him he NEVER has them call me.
