Legal Question in Family Law in Florida

Re: Ex's Live-in Boyfriend has different religious belief, and is engaging in di

I assume that your ex has been appointed as the primary residential parent and that you have reasonable visitation rights.

First, you should read your Final Judgment to determine if there are any specific provisions that apply in this situation. I doubt you will find anything but it is possible.

My experience is that a court will not force either parent to promote specific religious beliefs in the children. This generally means that each parent may expose the children to their own religious beliefs. And, you can do this when you have the children for visitation.

One more extreme option is to attempt to modify the Final Judgment and obtain custody. It is unlikely that a court would modify custody based only on the one issue you have discussed in your post. However, if other factors were present, you might have a basis for modification. You would need to consult with an attorney who can review all of the facts in your case and give you an opinion.

Note that another often overlooked solution might be available to you. You might try communicating your concerns with your ex if you have not already done so. She may be willing to work with you on this issue.
