Just had court. GAL delayed report again. Been fighting for a year and haven't made any progress. I get my kids for 4 hours a week. I've documented very thoroughly and it seems like my ex has built a pretty decent case against herself. Yet my lawyers don't seem to do anything. I'm already on my second lawyer. I feel so frustrated and defeated. My 3 and 4 year old literally beg to stay with me every visit. I don't ask them about their mom's. I don't prompt them in any way about the situation.

The judge doesn't seem to be getting any information. My kids haven't been to the doctor in over a year besides hospitalizations (3 times for the 4 year old type one diabetic, 1 time for the 3 year old). My ex has violated court orders throughout the divorce and custody but there have been no repercussions. She's demonstrated irresponsibility at every turn.

She falsely accused me of DV last April and the charges were dropped before it even went to trial, with no conditions. Is it reasonable for this to be where I am at just because of that? I just want my kids and will do anything...

Long story short my ex accused me of DV. She brought her new girlfriend, who she left me for, back to our house where our kids were sleeping at 1am(they came from a bar) and I kicked them out. I did so nonviolently but that's not what they reported to police 12 hours later. The state dropped all charges in record time. She used our kids as pawns in our separation. She was retalitory during the whole divorce. So I don't see my kids from April to October last year. I was their primary caretaker. We have a 3 year old and almost 5 year old. The 5yr old and I are type 1 diabetics. He was hospitalized multiple times because he wasn't being properly cared for. I have been very thorough documenting everything. They haven't been to regular doctor appointments. The diabetic son hasn't been to the dentist. The control of his diabetes has been terrible and the testing shows that trend. My lawyer has all the information but things seem to be moving so slow. I had supervised visits from October to March and now unsupervised but i only get them 2hrs twice a week. They are always reluctant to go back which is crazy because they are so little. The GAL is next to useless but still seems to lean towards my direction even though I'm the father in a mom leaning state. What can I do to get to at least 50/50 sooner? I want my boys to be raised right and taken care of properly and my ex isn't at a stage in her life where she can be that. My patience for the system is dwindling...
