Is it abuse to make your daughter sleep on the cold hard floor with only a pillow? No blanket, nada?
How come he’s spanking her? We don’t have to spank her!
Why is he calling her a brat? Everyone who interacts with Emma tells us what a delight she is, how sweet and well behaved she is….
Why wasn’t she given lunch?
I’m worried. Really worried.

I’m sorry.
Some people just have no idea what they’re doing.

This might be something you want to run by your attorney. Your daughter does not deserve to be mistreated — particularly by her own father.

Well, I spoke to him, according to him she has a mattress she sleeps on, and a blanket that she kicked off(consistent for her, she sleeps hot)
and they did eat lunch.
So technically she was on the floor… I don’t know! She’s five, so the things she tells me may be the truth, but missing vital information…
Ya, I know he’s a shitty father, but I have a hard time thinking he’s THAT shitty of a father…
But Emma is generally a truthful child so I do listen to her.
And I’m hesitant to bring it to my attorney’s attention, because A:I don’t feel like she listened, cared, or gave much time or attention to my case previously- she told me what I wanted to hear up to the last moment (i.e. three days before trial) and B: I still owe her 1800 for THAT!. I don’t feel like she did a good job, really at all. So to rack up more of a debt with her makes me feel ill….

oh goodness…
That sucks that you don’t have a good relationship with your attorney.. 
And I’m sure it would cost even more to get a different one… 
*hugs* honey…

I LIKED my attorney- but I just don’t think she thought I was important. She thought it was going to be an easy case and ignored it- and me- and the things I said.

I mean, is it standard for the judge to yell at an attorney? Because she’s not listening?

If only we could find a way to bug their house:)

This makes me so sad for both of you….
In a completely unrelated note, you showed up in my list of rec for Facebook. Totally freaked me out as I thought I kept that email/etc completely separate…
