Legal Question in Family Law in Florida
Unfit parent
I am the custodial parent. On 2007
while the kids were visiting my ex,
she attempted to choke the smallest
one (7) and asked to take anger
managment and parenting clases,
but meanwhile the visitasion would
have to be supervised. Since then
my ex doesn't call to arrange to see
the kids and now she filed for a
hearing on motion for contempt
saying I don't let her see the kids.
What is the best legal way to answer
this? I consider that is an unfit
parent and just want that her
desitions are for the best for the
children and not the opposite like it
has been all these years. Please help
me... I can't afford a lawyer.

Re: Unfit parent
You can't afford NOT to have a lawyer. The woman actually tried to choke your child and you think you can handle it yourself? You are putting your child's very life at risk by handling this yourself.
Get a lawyer right away, and that lawyer will probably advise you to file a petition for sole custody, but, whatever you do, don't try it on your own.
