I want OUT of the Court System

I just received my temporary custody orders. The orders are written FAR OUTSIDE the issues that we discussed during the concillation hearing. Now there are constraints around overnight sleepovers, school events, immoral behavior, moving and smoking. It reads as though my husband and I can no longer parent ourselves or be adults ourselves! I begged my husband PLEASE MEDIATE and he was adimant not to...now here we are. MUCH money has been spent, to tell us what to do...and now the list is a mile long on what we CAN NOT do as parents. Is there ANY WAY to get out of the court system and be reasonable parents again?

I want out of the court system!!!!

After going through my divorce I have seen a completely dysfunctionalJudical System. BEST INTEREST OF THE KIDS???? COMMUNITY PROPERTY??? BULL!!!!!I nievly intended on appearing pro se. After reading, and adised by many I
searched for an Atty. what a shocker. One of my biggest problems was my EX cleaned me out financially and waited until I was as POOR as I have ever been. He had no credit tallied up over $50,000 on mine, self employed I had been supporting OUR business and family for years (BAD MOVE) mutual plans on running the business together, I had lost my job of 10yrs, company closed moved to S America, I used my 401K  trying to clean up credit debt,  for my son's college tuition that was all to be reimbursed which he has refused even knowing about.ON AND ON.....
I hated walking into an Attys office and describing the situation I felt like a fool. I felt like a bigger fool when not 1 could provide any encouragement. Most showed me the door "I couldn't afford them" advice "take what you can get" even worse the one that was confident he got me $50 a mth Temp Hear for 3 kids. EX had bought a beach cottage , a Harley, Superbowl, "worked" in FLA for  winter, lived in his family home (beneficiary) , and continued to run HIS business Antique Dealer.
 
Next Atty  the "BEST" I went to him for advice he took my case, however was sooo busy with "other" cases. My debt  was priority.  I received a foreclosure notice my home was to be auctioned in 3 weeks. Repeated phone calls not returned, I brought the paperwork to his secretary. Still not hearing from him, mistakenly,he took my call when I asked him about my  foreclosure he knew nothing I asked if he had my file he had it right there, he never looked at it. 3 days b4 auction, He did not do bankruptcy. His $2600 associate did. I filed the night b4 auction assumed all debt, 1 week b4 final hearing. Debt no longer existed. Atty did 00

From what I have seen ...the rules in the agreement are typical. If you and your husband get along and don't agree with what is in there then you are the only ones that can make them enforce them. Example: It says no overnights...if BOTH of you agree on that then there may not be a problem. I would just make sure that you both have signed something to the effect and notorize it. He is the only one who could get you in trouble as you are the one who could get him. Most of those statements are standard. When you get one party that wants their way then they will take you to court for "breaking the rules. " Just be careful! Make sure you BOTH agree.
