it\'s happened...he\'s using PA as a punishment or tool...just like i knew he would.

Joey, Im so sorry that he is doing this to your girls. I would def. call your atty. He put your girls lives at risk. I wouldnt risk it again. He is obviously a danger to them.
I cant imagine how angry you are right now. Like you said even if he honestly didnt know (which he did), he should've left right away.
I think your atty. should be able to prove "endangering the welfare of a minor".
Again, Im so sorry you are all going through this and I hope it is over with quickly so you can get on with your life. I would get this taken care of now because he will obviously have visitation and who knows what he'll do when he's not living with you.
Good luck, my thoughts are with you.

joeybeth,my heart goes out to you and your childern,Be strong you are doing the right thing,Are the kids ok?Have you talked to the girls about what happen?I would talk to the atty.I just don't understand why anyone would put childern in harms way,It makes me so sick.Big hugs beining sent.Hang in there.

Just playing devil's advocate because I don't think that way, but my brother went through a nasty divorce and got accused of everything bad on this planet.
Your kids didnt get sick by the trip to that restaurant, right? They didn't end up in the ER right? Did they have any reaction at all? Cause you're going to be painted as the maniac mom, super protective to the point of obsessiveness when you'll be in court. Prepare yourself for it. Make sure you have everything about PA and its *variability* documented. He's going to attack you on this, I'm fairly certain about it.

joeybeth, I'm sorry for all this trouble you and the girls are going through.
Even though the girls came out of the restuarant reaction free does not mean that it was a right choice for them to be there. They were just lucky, in my opinion. They were put in danger and the potential for a reaction was a great risk. Someone once told me it's like playing russian roullette. It may not happen this time, but could happen at any time. I would point this out in your and the girls' defense 'cause you know he'll probably bring up the very same fact that "nothing happened".
I hope everything works out for you.

or like driving under the influence?

But, yes, darthcleo, *I* get your point. Seems like the defense's job in litigation is to paint a "bad picture". Ironic, huh?
