What can be done about my children's mother alienating me as a father and interfering with my visitation with them?
Additional Details:
I have my 9 and 11 year old children(in CA) 3 weekends per month, one night visit and half of all the school breaks per year. Their mother is not happy about my time with them and has been telling them they don''t have to go with me if they don''t want. It has caused some real strife between the kids and I and my son has begun arguing about coming over to the point I have to physically force him in the car all the while the mother saying ''they should make up their own schedule''. She is not willing to go to family counseling or even talk about what is going on.She really does not value me being in their lives at all. We both took parenting classes but she fails to follow any of the points that were taught. What can be done about this? Can i file a motion so counseling can be ordered?
You can and should file a motion to modify custody. There is enough information in your question to justify filing a motion; the longer you wait, the more difficult to overcome her opposition.
