Visitation of Infant Children I am scared about the mental ability of a baby to
When a mother is abandoned by her husband during pregnancy and the court orders when the newborn baby turns 6 months the child will go to a standard visitation schedule is this feasible. The research shows that children this young should not be taken 3 hours away from their primary care taker for extended periods of time. I am very concerned on what effects this has on a baby of that age and if there is anything I can do to change this. Also the father has a DWI and his brother who frequently picks up the child for there 8 hour visits has many at fault accidents does this constitute a ''competent adult?'' Also, I feel the only reason this was ordered is because he committed perjury in court. I can prove this but, cannot afford to do anything about it. Any ideas would be helpful.

Re: Visitation of Infant Children I am scared about the mental ability of a baby
When you go to court, you have to show the judge competent proof of the research you speak of. Only an expert is permitted to testify about this research if it is common to child care. This is expensive. Further, can you prove the perjury? When you say you can't afford it, what is the risk to the child by being in the care of a person with a DWI and picked up by a person with many at fault accidents?
