Narcissistic Ex Hates 50-50 Custody So Back to Court We Go

Been divorced since August 2023 where my ex and I share a 2-2-5-5 schedule that was recommended from a custody evaluator. Ex has put me in pure hell since she asked for a divorce including false police report while I was at work stating that she was in fear of her life which was a bad acting job which the officer didn’t believe. Ex took me back to in Feb 2024 court trying to get me to go to jail for 8 months for being late on childcare reimbursement payments that were already paid up before she even filed the suit. And now I’m going back again in Feb 2025 because I’m a high conflict co-parent and I need ‘help’. We were ordered to use a parenting app and post a daily post about the kids. Her posts are usually over the top that look like a dissertation while mine are to the point of what me and the children did. My oldest is a straight A student and receives many accolades in school and my youngest is in daycare and his daily sheets that say he’s been good most of the days. I’ve always exercised my parenting time for the 50-50 schedule and never had a need to change or switch any days. I’m just hoping with this court date my time isn’t taken away.

Just document everything. Go read the book ‘Splitting’ and what to do with a narcissistic ex. Keep your cool, don’t overreact, document everything and she will look like an ass in court.

You state nothing here that would cause your time to be lessened. Not really sure why you posted.

Because even though you know you are doing everything right and following the custody order, getting served is scary. Having to go back over and over is frustrating.

Just keep on the straight and narrow, learn how to properly deal with a narc.

You’ll be fine as long as you keep your cool in court, but a lawyer would be advisable.

Your lawyer may not know what to do with a person who is acting in bad faith. You might have to guide them based on your experience.

What she’s doing is going to backfire on her in court. She can’t prove her BS against you. Keep doing what you are doing.

What reason did she give for being in fear for her life? Cops sometimes won’t do anything unless the woman has bruises or injuries.

She complained about cameras in our home to the police officer. She already knew about these cameras while we were married.
