hello my name is matt, from the uk and have 7yr old daughter, seperated from her mother during first year of my daughters life but have always made her my number one priority and have her at least half the week. some issues have arisen and would like to ask others in a similar situation for advice. basicly her mother is wanting to move(10 miles away) due to issues caused by herself (drugs are involved but the issue is far bigger other than that) and am worried about my daughters schooling as it will involve changing schools and will also impact on my ability to have her during the week for school. I work weekends so is a major problem as i am only about in the week mostly, since my daughter started school i have always taken charge and have mostly been the main contact, attended all parents evenings, plays, open days, sports days ect.
This is a brief description really and if i keep writing i wont stop, was supposed to be and new member introduction so hello everyone
HI DADDY84,
Welcome to the site.

Hi Matt and welcome π
Sorry to hear about your problems.....i dont think you can prevent the mum moving and as its only 10 miles away that makes it less likely again. However you mention drugs and other issues, have you considered going for full residency (custody)?
