I am going for a custody hearing, what can I expect?
(We are in Washington state)My first major issue is that I am young. I am 20 and their mother is 18. I know this happens everyday in the US but I've never talked to anybody who's been through this at this age.I am petitioning for primary custody of my twin daughters who are now 8 months old. I am nervous because I really want this, however my lawyer even told me "To be honest, it will be very hard for you to get primary custody of these children."We were married for about a 6 month period of time, at which point we got a legal separation. At that time I agreed to pay child support but it also said I was entitled to 6 hours of visitation a week, which she is refusing to give me.How does means of supporting the child come into play? I am a registered nursed, with an associates degree, and I do feel I make enough to support them... maybe not give them everything they want, but enough to keep them healthy. Their mom works at a daycare and makes about $9 an hour. She is not financially independent, and relies on her grandparents to support her and they end up paying most of her bills. Would that show I am "more fit" to support them? Would that help my case?Also, the mother has a DWI on her record from last year, would that also help me? Or is that insignificant? I know that there is frequent drug use going on in the mothers home (I have witnesses that will confirm she has used LSD and Marijuana while caring for the children) Can I use this to try and prove she is an unfit mother?I know that fathers rarely get custody, but do you think under these circumstances I have a chance?
