He doesn't want split custody

I need resources!!! We used to have 50/50 custody and he chose to discontinue this several months ago b/c of his pre-marital counselor saying it would be best for our son. This counselor never even met my son and since the change, my son has had many behavior issues. This is the same child who had once won an award at school for obedience. I want online/print reference proving to him that in some cases 50/50 custody IS best for the child. HELP!!!

I think that it depends on the kids and the parents and the whole situation. Everyone can't be put into this little "mold" that the counselor has put you in.
Consider finding a different counselor to take your son to. If he is having problems then they need to be addressed. Find someone who has worked with kids and he can be comfortable with...
Keep us posted...it is so wrong when people have the ability to decide things in our lives and we have no control over it. I guess it is a huge downfall of divorce.
Hang in there. Fight for your son...he is worth it!

What you want and what he wants are two separate issues. It sounds like he does not want a equal split with child custody. There is really nothing that you can do. You can not force him to be a parent. You can not force a relationship with your son.

i think that maybe your son needs some counselling too.

i am sorry for your situation.

50/50 is better for the kids. not 75% mom and 25% dad. mom AND dad are tyhe most important people that a kid will ever know. sounds like his counselor is full of dog poo.
