M.P.
i live in indiana so i'm sure our situation is different. but we started visitation with me present before the court ever saw our case. then after a month or two he pushed for visitation without me (well i'm pretty sure it was his parents, because he would not come see her without them). and then once everything was in court we started overnight every other weekend. all of this was hard on my daughter. she would cry to the point of throwing up everytime she saw her father. she got used to going to see him so now, normally, unless she's super tired, she's fine going to him. no more throwing up or tears. she looks forward to seeing her dad and his family now. she talks about him throughout the weeks she's not with him. it just took her some time to adjust to the new schedule of doing things.
