I am after information with regards to my rights and my children's rights under Family Law to communicate and visit my two kids who live in a different state. My ex-wife has made all the decisions as to when I can talk and see them for the last 5 years. In the last 2 years, I was able to see them twice a year for a couple days each time and I was happy to see them at all but just recently she has cut off all communication and says I need to take her to family court to see them.
I didn't take her to court previously because I felt guilty that I had to leave for work and I felt threatened and scared that I could lose them forever, but now I have seen the effects on my children. Despite their requests to see and talk to me more, their mother still refuses.
When my son gets ahold of me using his friend's or relative's phone, he says his mum blocks my phone calls and says upsetting things about me but most importantly he asks why am I not calling. It breaks my heart to think my kids have no idea how many times I've tried to call and visit.
I am no longer afraid to go to family court because I'm not doing it for me, I'm doing it for my kids' right to spend time and talk to their dad.
Please help!
