Ron1 asked:


My exwife and I have been over for 5 years. We have a son who is 12 now. She has had two other kids since then and has lived in about 7 or 8 different homes. My son hasn’t had his own room yet. He has always had one with me, same house, mediacal insr., I still pay child support. Should I go for custody?

   It sounds like it’s plausable. The kids are old enough thought that the court will ask them who they want to be with. I would say that 7-8 moves in 5 years is kinda outragous, but there could be a logical explanation (giving her reasonable doubt because I don’t know her). I would try if you think it’s best for the kids.

   A lawyer would know much better than any of us about your odds, especially in your state.

   However, it does sound like you have your son’s best interests at heart and can provide a more stable home for him than his mother, which to me sounds like you do have a good shot of getting custody if you want it.

   Good luck!
