I'm Blessed...
...with problems that I'm not able to handle, despite the fact that I've tried so hard to do the right thing
- with a bound life that's in the hands of other people
- with success that I worked hard for and is being threatened to be taken from me by someone that I used to love and have always tried to be fair to
- with a child who I love so dearly, and he's being used as a tool against me...
Thanks God... remind me to bring my fuckin gun when I meet up with You at the Gates of Heaven.

I ain't gonna lie, the last 2 posts I have read has scared the shit out of me.. I am concerned about the direction your heart/soul/mind is going these days. It does sound extremely unfair the way things are coming at you every other day...and I know your outlook seems bleak. I hope that there are resolutions coming that you can live with, and you can start to thrive and enjoy the good things. I think your frustration is fueling your anger and you are close to not giving a shit, but you have to remember that you are living your life for your son too, and he needs you as a positive source of strength. It will be difficult to help him grow if you aren't coping with stress and anger in a way that is going to help you both. I know things will get easier, and there could be lessons in all this to be learned, but right now..you should focus on getting proactive, protecting yourself, and making effort to communicate with your ex, so she fully understands the impact of her actions, if she decides to take it there. Stay strong, you can handle this, you have a strong soul and even stronger spirit and you are growing with each experience.
Is arbitration an option for you in Louisiana? You should look into having a legal document drawn up that would detail an amount that you and your ex can agree on without having the courts determine that amount for you. Otherwise, I would seriously look into becoming the primary in your custody agreement and make your wife pay you (see how that makes her feel). If your current lawyer isn't giving you what you need, start looking for better counsel now. The money will be well spent on protecting your interests.
Don't assume a negative outcome on this, it only makes it easier for it to happen. Just be proactive and agressive. It seems like your ex expects you to just take this, you do have rights you just may have to fight tooth and nail for them. It's not fair, but it doesn't mean you can't be successful at finding an agreement you can live with without sacrificing all of your lifestyle. You may also just have to exhaust your ex financially with a legal battle that will make her agree to your terms just to save money. There are fathers' rights group out there that will give you legal advice and assistance. I'll have to dig around, but I can send you the info when I find it.
