I’ve had many other questions conserning this…but I need help on this one I want to live with my dad and my mom doesn’t want me to so she’s taking us to court. I ahve to tell a lawyer why it would be a benefit to live a my dad’s. what stuff really matters that I could say that they could use to fight my mom and convince the court? like my mom’s going to use how my dad works nights and how he sometimes is late with his child support and other stuff…about my new school and how much I’m leaving behind and other bad stuff baout my dad…I’m happier there I’ve told her this…and she still won’t let me move. my dad isn’t a bad dad he’s the best and I can’t believe my mom is sacrificing my happiness just because she hates my dad…help?

Answer #1

It’s not the lawyer you need to convince. It’s the judge. And they’ll ask you questions, and just reply as honestly as possible. I would stay away from bad mouthing your mother. Instead focus on the positives of your father.
