The child should be and should've been THE priority. The only problem is that these are very good at putting on fronts to just about everyone except a potential employer. I don't think we have been privy to the full story yet but I find it very odd that all of the sudden they are talking about the legal requirements of child care.
Apparently their strategy is going to be a child should be with the mother. She is using free legal services from whom I don't know. Ironically they are blaming the ex for the kid's bad grades-they say he's too easy and yet they were absent from the picture days on end.
I just hope this new pressure doesn't push anyone to do something dumb. The user has a violent/short temper and the enabler is frequently an idiot. The child is stuck in between.
