If I agree to settle he will agree to one night of dinner a week and one overnight a week.
It is appealing only bc my state is a 50/50 state no matter what and this judge is a nightmare in terms of ignoring GALs and DCYF unless there are founded charges of child abuse which of yet there have not been.
DCYF wants to nail him but the proof doesn't meet the legal burden to charge him. Oddly they say that if I were less diligent in protecting my kids he probably would have met that burden of proof... So my kids are safer bc of my efforts but legally worse off bc I've kept their dad from doing bad harm to them and that somehow translates to he isn't as bad as if I didn't.

Anyway I am confused about what to do.

I have no $ for a lawyer and legal aid will not assist at this point in a divorce and the DV program is only for getting a RO.

So I'm doing this alone. And am scared.
