Legally Protecting Our Boys
Don protégé
My name is Holly Stone, and I am the mother of a blended family of 7 beautiful children. I am raising the money to hire a family law attorney to protect my family from my schizophrenic, alcoholic ex.
He has been mostly absent from our sons' lives since he walked out in 2011, with only rare phone calls and annual (supervised) long-weekend visits. He has been more active in my own life, with his occasional crusades of drunken, abusive calls and texts at all hours of the night.
Now he's moved in-state and he is making demands. He wants unsupervised visits with them even though he has a history of refusing regular psychiatric care, and he got blindingly drunk the second time he got to see them after his move. This man has emotionally blackmailed our eldest, who has autism and depression, to try to coerce him to move into his home. When these attempts met with failure, my ex told my son he doesn't actually have autism, but that I am a "psycho with Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy", jeered at him for choosing to "hang out with Mommy" and that my son will not be welcome in his home until he agrees to live there. This was devastating for my little boy, who only wants to make his father happy so he will make time for him.
My out-of-state divorce decree grants me full legal and physical custody and allows him visitation supervised by people who don't live in our state. I need to have this updated so that supervised visitation is upheld and new supervisors are established. In addition, he has been paying less than a third of our state child support guidelines, and my peaceable attempts to informally revisit this were met with threats of legal action.
My ex sees demons in the walls, which are sometimes on fire. He suffers from delusions. Everything he does is to serve himself, and no one is exempt from his verbal abuse when he feels wronged. He must be supervised during visits. He must pay his legal share of the boys' living expenses. We need help to ensure this happens.
He and his family have money for an attorney, and he will certainly have one. We do not have the money, and we can't live in fear on the financial edge like this. The attorney I am trying to hire comes highly recommended and he believes in us. Please help us. I can't even tell you what it would mean for my family.
Because Matt is the one with the Paypal account and Gofundme is concerned about transparency, I am adding that he will be the one withdrawing funds. :)
