can i HS?

[Birdof1985]

im not sure really where to ask this, but i figured maybe you all may know. I really really want to HS my son when he gets closer to it (hell be 3 Feb), BUT his father and I do not live together and dont really get along, i mean we do but we arent lets sit down and have tea kind of ppl. his father has custody of him, thats the BIG thing. SO my question, can i HS him? or is it whatever his dad chooses and im stuck?

ps- i feel dumb calling a lawyer out of the phone book just to ask this, so i thought id ask here and maybe someone would know.

Do you have JOINT custody? otherwise you may want to get it. HS without custody in near impossible as you must have the child to be able to HS. You have a couple years until you have to put a formal letter in so you have time. HTH

no we dont have joint... I MORE than want it, his father (and his parents who pay for the lawyer) however dont.
