Mom WON'T Give Dad Her Address! Judge SHOCKED!

Judge Asks: "Was Your Mother There When You Made This Baby?"

Navigating Co-Parenting Communication: A Judge Questions the Use of Intermediaries

Summary:

The court case revolves around establishing a formal custody and support agreement for Alani Ivy, a five-year-old child, between her parents, Regina Jones and Xerian Ivy. While both parents agree on joint managing conservatorship, a standard possession order with exchanges at a neutral location (Ross Clothing store in DeSoto, Texas), child support payments, and the use of state medical insurance, a point of contention arises regarding direct communication and the mother's refusal to disclose her address and phone number to the father.

Points of Contention:

Communication Barriers: The primary issue is Regina's insistence on communicating solely through Xerian's mother, citing past arguments and a preference for a go-between. The judge questions the necessity of this arrangement, emphasizing the importance of direct communication between parents for their child's well-being and setting a positive example.

In this explosive court case, a judge confronts a divorced couple who can't seem to talk to each other! Regina Jones refuses to give her ex, Xerian Ivy, her address or phone number, insisting all communication go through his mother. Is this a valid safety concern, or is it hurting their 5-year-old daughter, Alani? Watch as the judge grills both parents, questioning their communication strategy and whether it's truly in the child's best interest. Is it ever okay to cut off direct contact with your child's other parent? Let us know your thoughts in the comments!

And this will be the same woman who will tell everybody else that he’s a horrible father. He doesn’t spend time with his kids. He doesn’t come over and see his kids. I cannot stand women like this. She is a horrible mother, and that child will grow up to hate her once they find out how toxic she is.

[georgehouston]

Just give the father custody of his children and she can have visitation. Problem solved.

[falenemoya]

She better wake up! Judge is correct. She can have a mutual meeting place but she cannot just say no unless she can prove it is not in the best interest AND safety of the children.

[johnmayers]

The father also has a right to know where his children are being housed.

[frantzjean-philippe]

I bet if the judge said no child support until he has the address. I bet she gives it up 😅

[cortsucher]

Screw this she won’t cooperate then put her in jail give the man his child make her pay child support that easy she wants to play games she can from behind bars because you know damn well he would be there already

[kellison]

Technically she doesn't have to give the address

[anitaragin]

Forget having your address. If he's dangerous he shouldn't have your child. If she is afraid for some legitimate reason she needs to say so.

[christansdad]

I got to go through this with the mother of my kids. Thankfully the youngest is 16 and I am almost done with this bullshit.

[kf]

Well if he's dangerous, she shouldn't have to give her address, she should be able to meet him in a public place. That's a fair request to me.

[bigfishbunny]

She auggt to extremely politely ask the judge to hear her out. Tell him why, such as, "he stalked me" or "i have a restraining order" or "He has certain to burn my house down" or whatever true reason she has. Then the judge can decide whether or not she must give the address.

[nicolesymonds]

That's honestly stupid, tho... if she doesn't let him have his visitation, he has to file court paperwork, anyway, ... and the COURT has her address. In turn, she CAN be served at that address. He DOESN'T need to know her address. Maybe she doesn't want him to know it because he's physically abusive or something to that effect? There's PLENTY of reasons that courts keep EITHER party's address "secret" to the other party. That's why the COURT has it on file. 🙄😒

[fashionrb]

They can have a meeting spot. Apparently he is abusive. Come on Juge ANSWER the question.

[eightfigs]

I mean why cant he visit at a McDonald's or something...

[Robert-iuv]

Making it so difficult they can find a meet-up spot for him to get his visitations.

[robertpough]

Judges need to stop playing with these mothers. Charge her with contempt and place her in jail until she give the address

[ScarletBigDBell]

Yall don't know nothing about this situation- just projecting- major red flags on dad here- she clearly don't feel safe

[debscom]

We only see a snippet, there maybe a reason.... especially if there is a drop-off exchange.

[deniseabernathy]

I am sorry but as many women that are being unalived by the fathers of their children, I would think this judge would come at this situation differently!!! Those so called restraining Orders aren't even worth half the cost of the paper they are printed on!!! Iam quite sure whatever city this judge operates in, their are horrendous acts of men unaliving baby mamas. Matter of fact post the city and state please and I will do the research and come back here and post every incident with dates i find. They are so bold now a days they even stream such acts live!!! Personally I think if such an event unfolds as her unaliving that this judge would have to pay for her "Home Going Services".

[gregorymainor]

Isn't that contempt of court & can she be charged 🤔
