Hi Sir1017,
Welcome to our community. Hopefully, you will find folks here are very supportive. I note that you live in the USA, is there anyone here from the States who can advise this member. In regards to your question of child custody, you really need to seek professional legal advice about this as this is outside of our remit as a forum. It must be very distressing for you not having access to your children. We are here to offer peer support and empathise with your situation.
Do familiarise yourself with our Pinned posts section including our free mental health guides, and US crisis support helplines: shawmindfoundation.org/supp...
Keep in touch and let us know how you doing. Ok, folks please pop by and offer your support to this new member.
Best wishes,
MAS Nurse and Moderator
Hello I gather you live in the States, we are in the UK, so the information MAS Nurse has given will be sound.
In the UK We would need to go to court to gain access, if your Marriage is broken. If especially if you and your ex cannot agree access
Good Luck

Yes it needs to go to court and everything needs to be established
Visitation and child support will be addressed.
The court wants the papers.
You may not think you need them but somewhere down the line anything can happen without them.
Family probate court. Walk in and talk to someone.
I'm in the US. My daughter is going through this now. First step is mediation to try and do things without having to appear before a judge. If you can come to agreement in mediation I hear that's the best case scenario.
Good luck with this.
We have agreed on certain but she wants to change her mind every time all of sudden my baby is a new born only 1 month old
hi its a sad messy situation going through courts but if your being prevented from seeing your son then you don't have much option.best way to go about is to try not put each other down with ill tempered feelings.make it about your son and nothing else.hopefully it can be resolved and you have real quality time with your son.
