Gabriel's long term visitation arrangements
Desiree:
Please be advised, I have explained to Gabriel that I will be requesting whatever visitation arrangement he states to me that he would like. I have made sure he understands that you are not likely, based on your historical behavior, to allow him any more visitation than what the court explicitly orders you to allow, so it is best for him to request the maximum and if at any time he does not want to exercise any given visitation then he just has to let me know in advance. He has stated he would like to spend his school breaks with me.
If you oppose such an arrangement please let me know so I may address it with him and let my attorney know.
The court didn't demand Gabriel go to Canada for spring break and yet I approve it. Proof that my historical behavior contradicts what you have just stated.
I anticipated he would spend his school breaks with you.
I did not say the court demanded anything. Also you did not "approve" the visit. My attorney requested it from the court and the court granted it. The only reason you did not cancel the visit is because the court ordered it before you had a chance to. Historically, you have refused EVERYTHING I have requested.
For example, I requested you permit Gabriel to visit during his fall break and you said no. That is historical because it happened in the past. You have never followed through on actually allowing him to visit me without the court ordering you to do so. Therefore, my statement was completely true. Please try to put a little more thought into your arguments.
do you actually believe the bullshit you spew? Your lawyer and I drew up the document for the visit together and the court signed it. I should know - I was there. My issue with the fall visit is that no one but you and I would have known Gabriel was in a different country. All I asked is that you inform the court that he would be there so there was some documentation because I do not trust you in any way shape or form. You think you above everyone and everything including the law if you can find any way to circumvent it. It's pointless to argue with you about anything however - so believe whatever the hell you want, I am so beyond caring. You'll just have to trust that Gabriel asks for all the visitation he wants so that you aren't slighted by me.
Please see my comments inline, below:
The transcripts of all of our hearings are available from the court reporter for a fee. I've been obtaining them, for my records, since last summer. I am aware of every word that was stated at the hearing and to say that "you and my attorney "drew up the document" is grossly inaccurate.
You should review our emails from September 2013, with the subject "Gabriel's fall break" before you make these kinds of contradictory statements. I'm not going to bother responding to these statements here because they are in direct conflict with what you stated in those previous emails, in response to my written request for Gabriel to visit.
You also refused to let him visit last summer; and not only did you refuse to let me visit him in Arizona when you took him there in 2011, but you had your attorney tell the court that I threatened to go to Arizona and take him back so that the court would prohibit A:: visits at that time - even though you had him in Arizona in bad faith and in violation of the law - as was made clear when the courts ordered you to return him to me in November 2011.
And, in January 2013 you explicitly requested an order prohibiting ALL communication between Gabriel and I so that you could ease his transition into his new environment (that is, your environment).
So, yes, I would say there is a clear history of you explicitly refusing to let him visit and attempting to separate him and I by force.
Please provide an example of something that I have done that would support such a statement. It sure seems to me that all the things I've said (e.g. being born in Floriday, being a US citizen, being innocent of all the things I was charged with) are in fact all true - as is evident from the birth certificate I received a couple of months ago and the government issued photo ID in my pocket.
Here, you are just attempting to say the same thing about me which I said about arguing with you. Please, at least, come up with your own claims rather than regurgitating mine. And if you are so beyond caring then why do you try to provoke these conflicts? I remind you that we were seemingly on amicable terms until YOU came up with the idea of depriving Gabriel so that you could appease your other child.
I don't understand your intended meaning here. Please refrain from using sarcasm or innuendos when communicating via email.
I would also like to point out that when you had your attorney request the court prohibit ALL visitation while you had Gabriel in Arizona in 2011 you did it immediately after verbally agreeing to the custody/visitation terms that Gabriel stated he wanted while the three of us were on the phone together. That shows that your word means nothing and what you agree to should be taken with a grain of salt. You have also stated on many occasions that you are not required to do a given thing because the court has not ordered you to (such as, providing financial support for your child when he was with me).
So, unless there is a court order requiring you to do something I cannot presume you will honor your agreements. It's unfortunate that you are such a miserable and terrible person, but you are who you are.
