A relative is raising a teenage son with her ex-husband. They have joint physical custody. The ex-husband has re-married. When the son is in his care, he often leaves the son at home in California with his (new) wife when he travels for work (which is often). The relative wants her ex-husband to leave their son in her care when he travels out of town but the ex-husband disagrees. The relative wants to know her chances of prevailing if she were to appear in court on this issue. Thoughts? Thanks!

It's abundantly clear now that the federal government has too much power. More power should be returned to the states so that individuals in one part of the country with one set of values don't impose on individuals with different values elsewhere.

Smaller federal government would both heal political division and weaken the leaches of special interests and lobbyists.

All politicians are hypocrites controlled by corporations. #empowerthestates

Hi! I have recently started working with a SaaS based company as a program coordinator co-op. I graduated last month and I am actively looking to get a full-time job soon.
