I am just wondering if ST has ANYONE (aside from you) around that can give him a heads up in case anything like this would happen. Does he have a liason or contact to DT since she won't speak to him? How is he able to communicate to her about the children, say if he was concerned about one of them. I mean, if he is having a panic attack, which would be understandable, but now he has legal rights even if the custody issues aren't finalized. By virtue of the process, it has been put on record that he will have custody rights and with them all the parental rights involved, such as notification if the mother takes the children out of state out of the country?
With the divorce/custody surely there will be a court-ordered situation where he will be allowed involvement and CPC won't be able to insert himself and play vigilante any more. He should have protection through the course and legal redress if his rights are not respected and followed.
