@Amber some people will want custody out of spite so I guess I’m just worried he would want it just because I put him on child support, some judges always try for 50/50 custody so i guess I’m just worried and overthinking ir
Do you have proof he isn’t active in her life? If he’s interested in having a relationship with his daughter, he should have one. I understand he hurt you by not being involved, but if he’s interested in having a relationship with his daughter, I don’t see that as a bad thing. He’s not going to get full custody, he may start with some visitation rights. Especially if you have the proof he hasn’t been involved since day one. But also, he should be giving support. Choosing not to be involved doesn’t mean you don’t have to be. But if the result of all this is your daughter might get to have a relationship with her dad, it might turn out to be a good thing.
@Jessica no he wants nothing to do with her and yes I have proof of him not wanting anything to do with her, trust me I’ve tried to get him to be in her life since the day I found out I was Pregnant he just blocked me, but I’ve tired every form of contacting him but he will just block me, I’ve texted and called him from my mom phone my friends phone and he never responds just blocks me she’s almost 5 months now i have numerous messages me of texting him asking him or trying to get him to atleast respond
File for sole custody and go from there. You can negotiate even if you don’t get it but if you agree to 50/50 it’s almost impossible to change it. He most likely won’t exercise visitation time regardless though
Then hopefully he’ll turn down having time with her, but that doesn’t mean he won’t have to contribute
Given what you've said here why would it even cross your mind he might want custody of a baby? And going further, what kind of judge do you think would grant him custody?
