Question on going Pro Se for modification

If a plan or proposal is sent from an atty it is inadmissable. If sent from you, it is admissable in court should it go that far.

Thanks. I'll hold out and won't email her my plans.

[capslock]

Tell her to send one to you.

I'll do that. I gave her until the 2nd to reply back.

Well she sent one. She proposed only letting me have her two weeks in the summer, every other Thanksgiving/Christmas and Spring Break. Her reasoning is she thinks it's not right to have our daughter in daycare, while I'm at work, during the summer. Any advice?

Yes. Maximize the time you have the child during your domestic deployment. Not military, but if you know how much time off you get, and when, THAT should be the minimum for which you should be pursuing.

Her daycare argument is worthless. Millions of American kids thrive in licensed daycares all over this country (indeed the world over), and your kid is no different.

Daycare can be enriching and leading to good social skills with kids their age. My ex easily was able to get afterschool "childcare" YMCA program written in divorce, even though it reduced my time. In the best interest of the children.... if anything, that time away from both parents is a retreat from the crap and good for the children.

Thanks guys. I'm going for the max time I can get with my daughter. I thought it was ridiculous about not allowing me to have time due to our daughter having to be in daycare.
