My ex refuses to inform me about my child’s appointments or provide visit summaries when I ask. There are no protective orders in place; it feels like she’s trying to alienate me since her affair. Recently, she lied about an MD appointment I wanted to attend, claiming it happened when my child actually saw a different kind of doctor. Should I consider discussing this with a lawyer? I’m in East Texas.
Yes, it’s definitely worth bringing this up with a lawyer. Keeping you informed about medical appointments is important for co-parenting.
Consulting a lawyer could help you understand your rights. Documentation of these incidents will be crucial if you decide to take action.
This sounds frustrating. A lawyer can help you address the communication issues and may suggest ways to enforce sharing of information.
You should definitely talk to a lawyer. They can guide you on how to handle this behavior and possibly help with modifications to custody or communication agreements.
Involving a lawyer might help establish clearer communication expectations. It’s essential for your child’s well-being.
Document everything. If she continues to withhold information, it might strengthen your case if you need to go to court later.
Consider mediation as well. A neutral party might help improve communication between you two.
