This young woman's brain has been poisoned. And I bet she likes dad's money. Blaming dad for not being around has a lot to do with the fact he works,to support her and her activities and nice clothes and toys...she sounds spoiled. She's lucky her dad is putting in as much effort to build a relationship with her. Regret is a bitter pill. Some fathers don't give a crap.Shame on this mother
Agreed, im curious if mom works and if mom provides a 16yo an adult caregiver while away at wk. the animosity from there divorce has definitely been put upon this child and i didn’t get that vibe from dad. He seems hard working, highly educated and willing to put his daughters wants/needs first. Wanting to coparent w mom who has evidently been hard to deal w based on comments of past hearings. He said she’s talked about the one camp for months so she does talk to him. Over a one wk xmas break she did 4-5 things even ice skated w dad which was what she wanted to do but claimed she stayed in the rm the entire time🤔sounds like she is doing this in part bc mom don’t want her to go bc moms distain for dad has alienated the child and some for herself that she hasn’t had much time in Utah to say if she likes it or not. Its gorgeous there! Beautiful views, hiking/biking mountains and nice summer weather(she’s only been at xmas). Dad moved i understand but for work which is for the betterment of his family and her support anda a sacrifice he made and I’m sure hes paying a hefty amount of cs on top of travel and buying his daughter whatever she wants plus a car she says she already has. Im sure most of her support from mom comes from dad cs and dad still gives extra on whatever activities/things she wants to do bc he wants her to experience all things life. He will probably pay for a good college education for her so she too can be successful. Sometimes giving everything to a child just makes them a entitled brat. She will see oneday as an adult that college and a career like his does sacrifice alot if time away but for the betterment of the family. But its his willingness to still want to be there active in her life while being a busy anesthesiologist is to his character as a dad. I hope its just moms alienation but she seemed to turn from sweet young girl to hostile/hateful pretty quickly w dads lawyer. Its really sad bc nobody wins, mom thinks she wins bc the daughter hates the dad but obviously when there together must not act that way. Some reunification counseling through video counseling would benefit them. Both say how they feel and work to build. Wish the best for dad and ella bc he didn’t get close to what i thought he’d get. Id of gave 1-2wk in June an same for july. She already before his move had a 5hr travel that is now by plane not car. Mom will not agree to any extra unless it’s ordered. They are back in court couple months later
@@sixxygrrl yep sounds like it, the one lawyer asked if she done stuff on vacation she said yes when the dad's lawyer get specific on the stuff they did she was not pleased a lot more stuff than one kid would do in one week when there off for Christmas, but yeah my grandma was there sounds like she didn't like that the way she said it in a very not pleased way spend time with family as she put it yeah a lot of people do that during the Christmas holidays, maybe the judge should have explained that to her she lives so far away now that the grandmother she took the opportunity when she went down for a week to spend time with her as much as she could she go out for dinner in one week more than any parent does for a kid, so yeah the mother saying and doing some thing in her head, cuz other wise why was the kid there at court it wasn't asked to be cuz the judge didn't get why she was there but took the opportunity and talked to her any ways.
Totally disagree. That can’t be determined just from what we heard and saw in this video. You’re filling in the gaps with guesswork based on your biases and experiences. We all do that and we can be correct, we can be wrong. And we can acknowledge that we just can’t know but maybe …. happened.
That child is rude and brainwashed! I bet if she didn’t have dad’s money and didn’t have the opportunity to participate in all of those activities she’d be more humbled. Smh disgusting child.
The judge did the best he could, it's father's responsibility to love daughter and spend time with her. It's his responsibility to not leave the house and left her with bitter angry woman he divorced. It's not all about money you know? Young women are not there yet and mother probably doesn't care about money too - but for validation and attention.
We can say the child and mom are rude and unreasonable... However child support anf visitation rights are separate. If you give genetic material and a child results you are financially obligated to the child you contributed to. In the usa you pay financial contributions whether you even SEE the kids or not. Once you establish maternity and paternity you have to help financially. Visitation is separate. Thus we cannot comingle these concepts
I can’t imagine how dad feels after hearing his daughter. Sounds like he really wants what’s best for her 😞 So sad. She’ll regret how she’s treating him
There is a lot of repressed anger in her. I feel like she has been stuck in the middle of the parental squabbles a lot. Especially if the judge had to warn them like he did last hearing.
That's not hostility, that's her fighting to keep her life normal and as she wants. Girls are like that, my daughter is too. They do get angry at dads the more time they spend with mums really but also when she has plans and friends and she has to go somewhere she doesn't want - these mistakes were made in the past. If your daugher does not like to come to your new house, whos fault is that? Moms? I don't think so... We need to build relationships with our daughers. That said, she was very emotional in her answer and I bet she deeply inside wants to have loving caring father in her life. Probably because mother is not there for her emotionally, this is sad reality of divorce. Listen to that man speaking, he is compasionate, organized and caring. What woman is such a man divorcing? That's really bad thing for any child to stay with such a mother.
@@MarcinWojtczuki think the mother has a huge role here though. She probably talks to the daughter horribly about her father. Unfortunately when you’re young you don’t always see the whole picture. Haha even when you’re old. I would have believed anything my mom said to me about my dad when I was younger. Luckily she never spoke a negative word about him. I loved my Dad too but my mom had way way more power over me, as a child.
As a father who’s been through this, the daughter is a prime example of an alienated teenager. With that said, and with the daughter’s shitty attitude, I would prob wish her the best at this point. I would also cut off ALL funding once she turned 18.
If I were this father, I would walk away. And yes I am a parent. The mother has damaged the relationship with the father, ensured the father is hated. Apparently daughter does not realise that his work schedule is what paid for that car she has and any other little toys. Fathers are good enough for the "things" but not anything else according to brats and mothers like this. She will fell it later in life. Walk away dad.
Agree, she will realize once a mature adult that college and a career(im sure he will pay for a good college degree for her to have success too)take alot of time away an its a sacrifice FOR the betterment of your family but hes tried to still be an active part of her life. Saying she sat in her rm for a wk at xmas but went to 4-5 events and ice skated w dad which is what SHE wanted to do says he is trying. and he wants her to participate in her activities, He pays for her them. and most of what moms pays is probably from his hefty cs in going to guess. W a bitter angry mom bringing her into court disputes and hearing all the animosity has alienated her from dad. He didn’t give me those vibes that he did that, more mom! They would benefit from videod reunification counseling due to the distance. Hopefully she will see oneday when living life away from mom out of her grasp. When she will call dad to help her and he will be there no matter what
I'm with you as well, I'd walk away and NOT PAY A DIME! I guarantee that the mom would be back in court about not being able to take care of her child w/everything she has going on.
I can't imagine anything than loving my child unconditionally. I need her to know I will always be there if she wants. But you're right - there are situations when fathers have to cut their daughters off and say "if you don't want to have a father in your life, you won't". Just make sure to tell her you'll always love her. Also, not sure how to actually deal with this without substance abuse or other self harm activities honestly - be aware doing this destroys you.
@MarcinWojtczuk I am a divorced mother. And what I see these mothers do is horrendous. But there does come a time, and it is usually (not exclusively but the majority) the males who are shafted. The bitter and vindictive mothers create an anger within these children very quickly. It does not take a long time to destroy the relationship between a child and a parent. It is quite quick. Children are easy to manipulate if you hate your ex enough. But the more he tries right now, the more he will push his daughter away. He is trying so hard to prove that he loves her by fighting for his visitation. Amazing how suddenly he is a bad man and was not a father when married to her mother right? Yet he must have provided a good life (based on his work) which the mother enjoyed until she did not. Whether he or she ended the marriage and even if one of them had an affair, do not care. The daughter has a deep anger and hatred for her father. A child only hates like that when someone has been telling them stories. Stories like dad left you, dad does not want you, dad did this, dad did that, etc etc. Sometimes the damage is permanent. As much as one loves their child, you may have to walk away (keep paying that child aupport until 18) and hope they come to you when they become an adult an start thinking for themselves. Some do not. But I would also say no to paying for university. 18 cut off financially.
Sounds like she's been coached by the vindictive donor. I call her that because a real mother wouldn't do that. Dad should just stop all of the extras because clearly she doesn't appreciate nothing!!! She's a disrespectful brat. Talking like that at 15 and probably encouraged by the donor!!
I’m glad life does not give me these type of battles because I’d tell her to enjoy community college after all that because I’d be done being treated like a piggy bank 😩
The daughter is spoiled and has been taught to have no respect for her father. He’s no doubt providing a nice lifestyle for her, and that’s because of his work. If it gets to this sort of dynamic the courts should start to dial back support. No half in and half out.
Absolutely, the court should reduce child support since daughter appears to not even want to spend time with him. I feel so bad for this hardworking father with such an ungrateful brat for a daughter!
Oh but teaching respect to adults is not a hard thing to do. First of all, you need to have boundaries and enforce them. I've found Family LInk and ability to block phones/tablets instantly is a very logical consequence for behaving like you don't need to listen to your parents. As for respecting a father - are you respectable? That is a very valid and important question. Are you?
I remember watching a previous hearing from this couple and mom was nasty!!! She didn’t even want the child to be able to stay alone with grandma. She wants the benefits of his hard work but doesn’t want to spend time with her dad. ATP dad needs to fall back and just pay the support and then when she turns 18 in 2 years let’s see how mom deals with her brat she created. She hates her ex and has taught her daughter to hate him too
Well, I see mom has done such a great job raising another witch woman like herself. It is absolutely despicable!!! I am soooooo sick of these nasty a$$ woman out here in these court cases!
What a nasty, spoiled and rotten daughter! If the Dad gets no visitation, then he shouldn't have to pay ANY child support. At this point, if she doesn't want to see him, then she shouldn't expect any money from him.
From my understanding, the less overnights you have - the more you pay, so it would work completly opposite. Also, that judge is a clever man, he never mention any money - which is a very good hint for watchers. I've seen him being very clever multiple times, if it was about money - he'd cut the bs very quickly. It was not, he found the issue very quickly - and warned father that his daughter will not want to go. He knew before he asked her, so ... not money really, no.
32:50 any colleges considering Ella’s admission might want to consider this nasty attitude towards her family and lack of respect shown towards the court here 🤷🏻♀️
This child’s anger but the disrespect to the lawyer is astounding. Girl stop the bs with regards to dad. Mom needs to get over the issues and so does she. U deliberately getting into stuff so u don’t have to see him. Smdh both parents made this mess.
What a brat. No respect for her elders. So what if she's doing things with her grandmother, poor woman was probably looking forward to seeing her but I hope she wouldn't be that rude!! If she doesn't want to see her dad he should suggest withdrawing her money. Absolute witch.
I would withdraw my visitation request. I’m sorry if my child acted like that about me, I would pay my child support and love her from a distance. To say he was always working is sad. My dad was always working to provide and give us the best life possible. We never complained because my mother did what he couldn’t but he always provided the money for everything we asked and wanted especially when we reached junior HS and HS years.
This judge is all about the mothers. In most every case it doesn’t matter, if the mother is beating the crap out of the child on the daily, the dad would still be in the wrong with this judge
What a spoiled brat!!!! She already knows daddy is buying her a car immediately after getting her license and is paying for all these camps and extra curriculars and she has ABSOLUTELY NO APPRECTION for any of it. If I were the father and just heard everything she just said, I would cut off the all $$$ immediately. She has no incentive to build a relationship with him as long as he gives her everything she wants while accepting all that attitude and extreme disrespectfuless. That NEVER would've flown with my parents.
Kids don’t get that way on there own. Moms proud handywork! And shes done a good job at alienating this child from dad but both got that ✋ hand to pay for all the activities and soon college! I’m sure he will pay for a good college degree so she can be successful. Mom should be ashamed dragging her daughter in court not just this time, judge said hes talked to her before and shes 15 so imagine how old she was. Really sad, she will see it oneday as she matures and gets out of moms grip. Unfortunately kids are easily manipulated to believing things especially if its mom.
@@kimberlylozano2881 exactly. Especially if Mom has pulled the whole "He abandoned us" and "It's all his doing" cause Dad is the bad guy. Mom is likely her "Bestie" instead of the Mom. It's disgusting how she was clearly prepared and jumped right into rage and anger. It was weird the way she reacted. Way over the top. I'd bet mom bribed her with promises of getting to do something she has desperately wanted to do.
Actually since she's 15, I say she has something to say. Judge wanted to listen too. And look, if she spends week in distant place in a room alone - that's like a prison. Does it make any sense? Father needs to do better, he just can't. I don't blame him, he works very hard. She is not appreciating saving lifes takes away life from the saver.
Mom is ridiculous the daughter is 16 she doesn't need a baby sitter she can visit her father even if he has to work. I mean come on does mom take off work while Ella's lives with her.
so the mother has weaponized her child and the judge lectures the father about building a better bond with the brat and then proceeds to give him less time when only more time can give them a chance to rebuild as the judge wanted!
In my opinion this is the typical mom turned the daughter against the dad so I have the cure. The daughter no longer has to have visitation and at the same time the dad doesn’t pay support or for any camps, cars, etc. dad can provide health insurance and the mom can pay every thing else. If and when the child matures wanting a relationship with him then the dad can choose whether or not he wants to give her any college help.
What a nasty teen. She can't even be respectful to lawyers in a courtroom. I remember what it was like to be upset with my father while I was younger when he got remarried and I felt like he didn't have time for me. I hope one day she understands how important a relationship with her father is. You only get one mother and one father. There are a lot of parents who don't care to try to see their children. This father is trying yet she's upset he works a lot. At 15 you don't understand that if you don't work you can't pay rent or child support. One day she'll hopefully understand that.
The way she reacted to Dads lawyer is who that kid really is. How hwr personality really is. A spoiled brat thats aloud to do whatever she wants with mom. Dad had to work to support the family. He was probablybthe disciplinary as well while mom got to take her shopping and be the fun parent. And im sure mom says all kinds of nasty things about dad right along with her daughter. Very sad. But him not giving up hopefully one day shows that kid that her dad loves her and fought for her.
The father bent over backwards to propose multiple schedule options to accommodate her, provides a nice lifestyle for her, and this is the thanks she gives him. Anything extra he provides should be taken away. If it’s not court ordered, he shouldn’t pay for it. Since she has such a nasty attitude towards him and his work, don’t benefit from it. Is anyone asking the mother to not work during her parenting time? People have to work and make a living. This is an absolute ridiculous situation and clearly they have nothing else to complain about. To have such an involved father and figuratively spit in his face this way is clear parental alienation
That child is rude and entitled, to speak to anyone like that is horrible. Dad was set up by the 2 of them. If it me I would let go her go and not supply anything other than the child support give the brat what she wants. The dream car wouldn’t happen until she learnt some manners.
Daughter is a spoiled brat. Her dad seems genuinely concerned about her. I suspect her mom is behind this. The judge is unreasonable and has no concept of how most people work. Bet neither the mother or daughter turns down the child support. If I was dad I would wash my hands of both of them
Such an ultra privileged child who gets opportunities kids could only dream of thanks to dad paying for things! Hhhmmmmmm......dad working like a dog, so this girl can act like a brat.....less than 3 years, dad.
She's a kid...She doesn't get yet how hard you have to work to provide all of the things that pay for what she wants to do If the mother is trying to harm their relationship that's shameful!
What a disrespectful child, not only to her father but also to his lawyer. It's okay for her father to pay for everything, but she doesn't want to see him. It sounds like she has been given everything she ever wanted, and never had to earn anything.
I always wonder how things would change in situations like this if the parent who loses time in these situations also received credit for child support and no longer had to pay as much as a result. Would the custodial parent suddenly be more willing to compromise? Would they stop attempts to make the non-custodial parent look bad? Maybe. I do not blame the father. Work situations happen. Sometimes relocation for a job is better for the child. If they were still together it is possible they all would have moved to Utah for the exact same job, so the move is not the problem. The issue is the apparent refusal of the mother and child to compromise.
If mom and daughter want to be so absolutely disrespectful and act so entitled with the father who is trying to find the best solution for everyone, then he shouldn't have to pay child support or anything else. If child support or other support was stopped when one side behaves this way, im pretty sure we wouldn't see this type of alienation so much.
What I hear is a child that has been poisoned by the mother. Don't forget to get that money from daddy and all the benefits of his money but the extended time with mom who hates the dad has clearly rubbed off. She is so darn rude and disrespectful. I feel for this dad. I bet at 18 she's still gonna expect daddy to pay for school and when she gets married she will make that phone call to daddy. This just sucks. My heart is so sad for dad and so sad for the damage this mom has done to that child.
Child support needs to stop and dad needs to walk away until the kid realizes he’s not just a paycheck. This poor man wants to be a real dad and doesn’t want to just be a paycheck. I feel for this man. That mother has completely ruined that relationship.
The daughter is going to regret not spending the time she had with her father when she gets older. I went almost 18 years with out seeing my father and now he is close to 80 year old. I regret every minute it of my choice not to see him. In the past 8 years I've been back in his life and I wish I did it it sooner. Life is short, embrace every moment you have with your parents.
This mother definitely was smiling at her daughter's outbursts. She was definitely coached and mom likely sits and puts things in her head about how "Dad does not do anything with me" "Its all his fault" blah blah blah. So Dad is FORCED to take time off work when he can't? Wtf?
I don't agree with the judge at all. Minors don't get to make those types of decisions. Miss Rude 16 year old should not be entitled to child support and father should not have to pay for a hotel in TN to visit with her for 2 weeks. Cut that support off and see how her attitude changes.
Excellent judge who listens, hears and tries to consider the needs and wants of the family, within the constricts of the law. It will be good when Ella turns 18 and she can make her own choices.
It amazes me when the Mother has Custody of the Child she can get the Child to do what she ask her to do,i beleive the Mother Enrolled there Daughter in summer Programs so she wouldn't have to go see her Father,for 15 there Daughter sounds like she has a Smart mouth and her Mother can't control her..She'll be 16 going 30 the way she talk
Exactly then uses that as a way to make it where the father is horrible for wanting his awarded custodial time. And of course the moms atty is grilling him on his work well im sure mom works also. Like wow.
I may be the oddball opinion here, but I actually feel sorry for this child. None of us know the full story, and regardless of what we see in these hearings, it's always heartbreaking to see any child have to go through this. I say this with having to co-parent with 3 separate dads. I can't say we've always gotten along. What I can say is we co-parent much better than before and it shows in our children. They're thriving, they're happier, and I feel like they've regained some of their innocence. Was this young lady rude and disrespectful? From a parental standpoint, absolutely. Did she sound hurt, angry, and frustrated? Absolutely. We have to remember she's still a child. If the judge has had to warn BOTH of these parents about "getting along" before, then they've both participated in creating this hostility in this girl. I hope we as people and especially adults can show a little more compassion towards our adolescents.
The mom has done a number on this child...yes a child! So its ok for Daddy to pay for everything she could ever dream of but thats the extent of it! This girl needs some manners and start showing respect for BOTH parents! Of course we dont know the back story but this is ridiculous! What parent can just take off work willy nilly to cater to the whim of their children? It sure seems like parental alienation to me!!
Right?!? I think she doesn’t really know what’s best for her plus it would seem as if she’s always gotten her way so judge essentially giving in to her demands she’s going to continue to act like that. She needs a serious reality check!
I see a lot of people blaming mom but I am not sure that is the case. She testified when she did see her dad it was mostly grandma that kept her. This is just a hard situation. I believe dad may be to blame for this and not mom. The disrespect from daughter is wild. His money is what gives daughter the luxury of going to these events. He has no choice but tonwork 50 hours a week most men are in this situation but I am not sure how dad allowed his relationship to deteriorate to this point. His daughter seems to hate him.
What an ungrateful child! My mother passed having me and my grandmother raised me. She worked alot so i spent lots of time with my papa and great grandparents. I would give anything to spend more time with them and wish they were here for my kids. As for dad i wish i had a dad that cared enough about me to even see me or fight for me. My dad passed last year and my children had no idea because he was never in their lives. Hopefully this young girl sees all these comments and she can see how truly fortunate she is!? Cut her dad some slack and make the most of her time with dad and grandmother.
My heart breaks for this father. If my child spoke like that, oh boy would she have a few things coming to her. Spoiled brat. Can only imagine what the mother is like. Very sad.
Judge seems fair and sensible in this case. The Dad seems to be trying to be flexible and accommodating within the restrictions of his work schedule. Where i work the summer school holiday period is considered a peak leave period and must be worse for him having to be on cal for part of it. The daughter at the very least seems a little off when being cross examined. Who knows what the mom is saying to her in private but i doubt its anything good. And this is me being generous
@@denisewilson9783 wait but she will eventually see what her mom is doing to her when she realizes her mom sucks and the only person that she ever actually had behind her was her dad. It might take a long time, but it always happens whether they want to admit it or not she will see that her mom never really cared and it’s really sad that the father and dog here could’ve probably had a great relationship if not, for the scorned woman who has to ruin everything and convinced her daughter that Dad’s a bad guy who left us in abandoned us
i hope that silly little girl realises when she turns 18 child support stops and mummy might not have enough money to spoil her, i feel sorry for her dad knowing what a little b...h he has brought into the world.
It's beyond OBVIOUS that that poor, arrogant & entitled girl has been SERIOUSLY coached and BRAINWASHED by her Mother AGAINST her father! Something could - and _SHOULD_ - have been done about that mother's BLATANT ALIENATION and impediment to her ex-husband's relationship with THEIR daughter!!💯💯🙄🤦🏽♀️😡🤬🤬
Sounds like Dad is a responsible, clear thinking, responsible, reasonable and articulate human being. I’m thinking Mum maybe a petty, immature, vindictive person who’s looking to punish and alienate Dad.. a very familiar pattern in conflicted situations like this. Keep on keeping on Dad! Good wins every time… it’s a slow burn but it does eventually happen!🎉😅
Wow I wasn't expecting that from her at all she started so sweet and soft spoken and then her whole self changed momma been doing some not so talking to her....she better grow up and realize how lucky she is to have a dad that cares and loves her
The judge should be saying this child needs to go not trying to talk Dad out of it and they sure like daddy’s money why would this judge just allow this child to talk so disrespectfully in a court?
Daughter thinks her mom is the only one making sure she has roof over her head and meals on the table, the only one funding her lifestyle! Time to wake up, bratty!
They need to give father full custody. How disgusting her attitude is. That comes straight from the mother. What a privileged brat. I wish I had a father like this.
If my kid talked about me like this, and I was trying my best to be there as a parent, I’d move on with my new family. I felt bad for the dad after hearing the daughter talk like that about him
If the daughter hates him so much that she cant go see him for more than 4 days he should terminate his rights to stop child support and cut his losses. Im sure she and her mom enjoy that fat child support check
Would Mom like to have her child support lowered when Mr. Wells gets let go from his job? Would that nbe in Ella's best interest? Once again Dad's time with the child is not a priority. Mom obviously has the time and the inclination to sabotage the child's relationship with her father. This child has been coached and she is an ungrateful spoiled brat. She doesn't have any trouble hurting her Father's feelings which is a nasty character trait and she and her Mother should be ashamed. Mom has done a crap job of raising her to be a kind and considerate child! Her reason for a bad relationship is he was always working. Funny, since I'm sure she wouldn't want to give up her lavish lifestyle. Things would be entirely different if Dad was a garbage collector. I wonder if she would like to give up all of her expensive, fun activities? They would never have been offered if Dad wasn't a doctor!
The mother should not tolerate the daughter’s attitude toward the father. My guess is it’s more than tolerated. The father is probably out of luck having a relationship with the daughter. He should have never moved out of state. The mother has her all the time and uses that time to poison the relationship with the father. Thank God my children never had to go through any of this.
This young woman's brain has been poisoned. And I bet she likes dad's money. Blaming dad for not being around has a lot to do with the fact he works,to support her and her activities and nice clothes and toys...she sounds spoiled. She's lucky her dad is putting in as much effort to build a relationship with her. Regret is a bitter pill. Some fathers don't give a crap.Shame on this mother
Agreed, im curious if mom works and if mom provides a 16yo an adult caregiver while away at wk. the animosity from there divorce has definitely been put upon this child and i didn’t get that vibe from dad. He seems hard working, highly educated and willing to put his daughters wants/needs first. Wanting to coparent w mom who has evidently been hard to deal w based on comments of past hearings. He said she’s talked about the one camp for months so she does talk to him. Over a one wk xmas break she did 4-5 things even ice skated w dad which was what she wanted to do but claimed she stayed in the rm the entire time🤔sounds like she is doing this in part bc mom don’t want her to go bc moms distain for dad has alienated the child and some for herself that she hasn’t had much time in Utah to say if she likes it or not. Its gorgeous there! Beautiful views, hiking/biking mountains and nice summer weather(she’s only been at xmas). Dad moved i understand but for work which is for the betterment of his family and her support anda a sacrifice he made and I’m sure hes paying a hefty amount of cs on top of travel and buying his daughter whatever she wants plus a car she says she already has. Im sure most of her support from mom comes from dad cs and dad still gives extra on whatever activities/things she wants to do bc he wants her to experience all things life. He will probably pay for a good college education for her so she too can be successful. Sometimes giving everything to a child just makes them a entitled brat. She will see oneday as an adult that college and a career like his does sacrifice alot if time away but for the betterment of the family. But its his willingness to still want to be there active in her life while being a busy anesthesiologist is to his character as a dad. I hope its just moms alienation but she seemed to turn from sweet young girl to hostile/hateful pretty quickly w dads lawyer. Its really sad bc nobody wins, mom thinks she wins bc the daughter hates the dad but obviously when there together must not act that way. Some reunification counseling through video counseling would benefit them. Both say how they feel and work to build. Wish the best for dad and ella bc he didn’t get close to what i thought he’d get. Id of gave 1-2wk in June an same for july. She already before his move had a 5hr travel that is now by plane not car. Mom will not agree to any extra unless it’s ordered. They are back in court couple months later
This girl has DEFINITELY been coached. Her mother has clearly poisoned her against her father. Blamed her father for everything.
@@sixxygrrl yep sounds like it, the one lawyer asked if she done stuff on vacation she said yes when the dad's lawyer get specific on the stuff they did she was not pleased a lot more stuff than one kid would do in one week when there off for Christmas, but yeah my grandma was there sounds like she didn't like that the way she said it in a very not pleased way spend time with family as she put it yeah a lot of people do that during the Christmas holidays, maybe the judge should have explained that to her she lives so far away now that the grandmother she took the opportunity when she went down for a week to spend time with her as much as she could she go out for dinner in one week more than any parent does for a kid, so yeah the mother saying and doing some thing in her head, cuz other wise why was the kid there at court it wasn't asked to be cuz the judge didn't get why she was there but took the opportunity and talked to her any ways.
Totally disagree. That can’t be determined just from what we heard and saw in this video.
You’re filling in the gaps with guesswork based on your biases and experiences. We all do that and we can be correct, we can be wrong. And we can acknowledge that we just can’t know but maybe …. happened.
@kerrypearce4264 indeed...I should have added imo but I thought that was what the comment section was for.
This young girl is rude and very hostile. Her Mom has really turn her against her dad. I bet Mom and daughter likes the child support payments
Which will eventually end.
@@cindifischer6919and then she’ll be sucking up to her dad to get what she wants. She’s a spoiled brat!
Mom likely telling daughter that dad doesn't give them money or anything.
That child is rude and brainwashed! I bet if she didn’t have dad’s money and didn’t have the opportunity to participate in all of those activities she’d be more humbled. Smh disgusting child.
The judge should just cut the child support since the child doesn't want to see her dad.
so judge should just take away a fathers legal rights? maybe he should order all the child support he has paid as compensation for losing his rights??
@phil-bay-of-plenty-nz it doesn't necessarily work out well in any situation a judge has to be the main parent.
The judge did the best he could, it's father's responsibility to love daughter and spend time with her. It's his responsibility to not leave the house and left her with bitter angry woman he divorced. It's not all about money you know? Young women are not there yet and mother probably doesn't care about money too - but for validation and attention.
We can say the child and mom are rude and unreasonable... However child support anf visitation rights are separate. If you give genetic material and a child results you are financially obligated to the child you contributed to. In the usa you pay financial contributions whether you even SEE the kids or not. Once you establish maternity and paternity you have to help financially.
Visitation is separate.
Thus we cannot comingle these concepts
I can’t imagine how dad feels after hearing his daughter. Sounds like he really wants what’s best for her 😞 So sad. She’ll regret how she’s treating him
Cut off at 18!
My heart felt the pain in his heart, if my daugter ever told such a thing to me I'd crumble and cry.
Sounds like parental alienation.
Wow, the daughters reaction was uncalled for. That hostility isn't normal.
mum helped on that one
There is a lot of repressed anger in her. I feel like she has been stuck in the middle of the parental squabbles a lot. Especially if the judge had to warn them like he did last hearing.
It's totally normal. This is what America is breeding. Use and abuse men, then toss them to the side for another ride.
That's not hostility, that's her fighting to keep her life normal and as she wants. Girls are like that, my daughter is too. They do get angry at dads the more time they spend with mums really but also when she has plans and friends and she has to go somewhere she doesn't want - these mistakes were made in the past. If your daugher does not like to come to your new house, whos fault is that? Moms? I don't think so... We need to build relationships with our daughers.
That said, she was very emotional in her answer and I bet she deeply inside wants to have loving caring father in her life. Probably because mother is not there for her emotionally, this is sad reality of divorce. Listen to that man speaking, he is compasionate, organized and caring. What woman is such a man divorcing? That's really bad thing for any child to stay with such a mother.
@@MarcinWojtczuki think the mother has a huge role here though. She probably talks to the daughter horribly about her father. Unfortunately when you’re young you don’t always see the whole picture. Haha even when you’re old. I would have believed anything my mom said to me about my dad when I was younger. Luckily she never spoke a negative word about him. I loved my Dad too but my mom had way way more power over me, as a child.
So because Dad has to work, he should not see the child? That's wrong.
He kinda moved across the country....like it would have no bearing...lol.
she's a nasty kid!! Mom got in her head.
As a father who’s been through this, the daughter is a prime example of an alienated teenager. With that said, and with the daughter’s shitty attitude, I would prob wish her the best at this point. I would also cut off ALL funding once she turned 18.
He'll probably have to keep paying through her college. But, this entitled brat will cut off communication after she turns 18
@@bgsunlimited he would have to agree to continue child support after 18
🎯🎯
@@bgsunlimitedit depends on the state bcuz many states don’t mandate college. This child is nasty and I wouldn’t blame him for saying I’m done!!!
It doesn't end at 18 now.
If I were this father, I would walk away. And yes I am a parent. The mother has damaged the relationship with the father, ensured the father is hated. Apparently daughter does not realise that his work schedule is what paid for that car she has and any other little toys. Fathers are good enough for the "things" but not anything else according to brats and mothers like this.
She will fell it later in life. Walk away dad.
Agree, she will realize once a mature adult that college and a career(im sure he will pay for a good college degree for her to have success too)take alot of time away an its a sacrifice FOR the betterment of your family but hes tried to still be an active part of her life. Saying she sat in her rm for a wk at xmas but went to 4-5 events and ice skated w dad which is what SHE wanted to do says he is trying. and he wants her to participate in her activities, He pays for her them. and most of what moms pays is probably from his hefty cs in going to guess. W a bitter angry mom bringing her into court disputes and hearing all the animosity has alienated her from dad. He didn’t give me those vibes that he did that, more mom! They would benefit from videod reunification counseling due to the distance. Hopefully she will see oneday when living life away from mom out of her grasp. When she will call dad to help her and he will be there no matter what
I might be tempted to walk away from her especially since she is 16 and acts like that. I would let her know when she is an adult she can reach out.
I'm with you as well, I'd walk away and NOT PAY A DIME! I guarantee that the mom would be back in court about not being able to take care of her child w/everything she has going on.
I can't imagine anything than loving my child unconditionally. I need her to know I will always be there if she wants. But you're right - there are situations when fathers have to cut their daughters off and say "if you don't want to have a father in your life, you won't". Just make sure to tell her you'll always love her. Also, not sure how to actually deal with this without substance abuse or other self harm activities honestly - be aware doing this destroys you.
@MarcinWojtczuk I am a divorced mother. And what I see these mothers do is horrendous.
But there does come a time, and it is usually (not exclusively but the majority) the males who are shafted. The bitter and vindictive mothers create an anger within these children very quickly. It does not take a long time to destroy the relationship between a child and a parent. It is quite quick. Children are easy to manipulate if you hate your ex enough. But the more he tries right now, the more he will push his daughter away. He is trying so hard to prove that he loves her by fighting for his visitation. Amazing how suddenly he is a bad man and was not a father when married to her mother right? Yet he must have provided a good life (based on his work) which the mother enjoyed until she did not. Whether he or she ended the marriage and even if one of them had an affair, do not care. The daughter has a deep anger and hatred for her father. A child only hates like that when someone has been telling them stories.
Stories like dad left you, dad does not want you, dad did this, dad did that, etc etc.
Sometimes the damage is permanent. As much as one loves their child, you may have to walk away (keep paying that child aupport until 18) and hope they come to you when they become an adult an start thinking for themselves. Some do not. But I would also say no to paying for university. 18 cut off financially.
Since the little girl is so upset they should have the mom pay for everything.
True!! I betcha she'd be back in court saying she can't afford it.
The USA is waay too rich for this argument to work.
Sounds like she's been coached by the vindictive donor. I call her that because a real mother wouldn't do that. Dad should just stop all of the extras because clearly she doesn't appreciate nothing!!! She's a disrespectful brat. Talking like that at 15 and probably encouraged by the donor!!
I’m glad life does not give me these type of battles because I’d tell her to enjoy community college after all that because I’d be done being treated like a piggy bank 😩
The daughter is spoiled and has been taught to have no respect for her father. He’s no doubt providing a nice lifestyle for her, and that’s because of his work. If it gets to this sort of dynamic the courts should start to dial back support. No half in and half out.
Absolutely, the court should reduce child support since daughter appears to not even want to spend time with him. I feel so bad for this hardworking father with such an ungrateful brat for a daughter!
@@laurabentley8911good lord I screamed when she started yelling at his attorney. The nerve of her smart mouth behind!
Oh but teaching respect to adults is not a hard thing to do. First of all, you need to have boundaries and enforce them. I've found Family LInk and ability to block phones/tablets instantly is a very logical consequence for behaving like you don't need to listen to your parents. As for respecting a father - are you respectable? That is a very valid and important question. Are you?
@@MarcinWojtczukIf I wasn’t respectable I wouldn’t be defending the father here 🙄
I remember watching a previous hearing from this couple and mom was nasty!!! She didn’t even want the child to be able to stay alone with grandma. She wants the benefits of his hard work but doesn’t want to spend time with her dad. ATP dad needs to fall back and just pay the support and then when she turns 18 in 2 years let’s see how mom deals with her brat she created. She hates her ex and has taught her daughter to hate him too
Well, I see mom has done such a great job raising another witch woman like herself. It is absolutely despicable!!!
I am soooooo sick of these nasty a$$ woman out here in these court cases!
What a nasty, spoiled and rotten daughter! If the Dad gets no visitation, then he shouldn't have to pay ANY child support. At this point, if she doesn't want to see him, then she shouldn't expect any money from him.
From my understanding, the less overnights you have - the more you pay, so it would work completly opposite. Also, that judge is a clever man, he never mention any money - which is a very good hint for watchers. I've seen him being very clever multiple times, if it was about money - he'd cut the bs very quickly. It was not, he found the issue very quickly - and warned father that his daughter will not want to go. He knew before he asked her, so ... not money really, no.
32:50 any colleges considering Ella’s admission might want to consider this nasty attitude towards her family and lack of respect shown towards the court here 🤷🏻♀️
Holy crap. That child has an attitude. This seems like a case of parental alienation.
That girl is going to regret these things. Not to mention her mom is likely contributing to that attitude.
This child’s anger but the disrespect to the lawyer is astounding. Girl stop the bs with regards to dad. Mom needs to get over the issues and so does she. U deliberately getting into stuff so u don’t have to see him. Smdh both parents made this mess.
What a brat. No respect for her elders. So what if she's doing things with her grandmother, poor woman was probably looking forward to seeing her but I hope she wouldn't be that rude!! If she doesn't want to see her dad he should suggest withdrawing her money. Absolute witch.
She didn’t even want to see her grandmother
And a temper tantrum worthy of a 2 year old ensued.
I would withdraw my visitation request. I’m sorry if my child acted like that about me, I would pay my child support and love her from a distance. To say he was always working is sad. My dad was always working to provide and give us the best life possible. We never complained because my mother did what he couldn’t but he always provided the money for everything we asked and wanted especially when we reached junior HS and HS years.
Judge shouldnt allow that attitude
This judge is all about the mothers. In most every case it doesn’t matter, if the mother is beating the crap out of the child on the daily, the dad would still be in the wrong with this judge
What a spoiled brat!!!! She already knows daddy is buying her a car immediately after getting her license and is paying for all these camps and extra curriculars and she has ABSOLUTELY NO APPRECTION for any of it. If I were the father and just heard everything she just said, I would cut off the all $$$ immediately. She has no incentive to build a relationship with him as long as he gives her everything she wants while accepting all that attitude and extreme disrespectfuless. That NEVER would've flown with my parents.
Bet she likes Daddy money very much. In two years she might regret her animosity towards her Father.
Daughter is a spoiled brat
Kids don’t get that way on there own. Moms proud handywork! And shes done a good job at alienating this child from dad but both got that ✋ hand to pay for all the activities and soon college! I’m sure he will pay for a good college degree so she can be successful. Mom should be ashamed dragging her daughter in court not just this time, judge said hes talked to her before and shes 15 so imagine how old she was. Really sad, she will see it oneday as she matures and gets out of moms grip. Unfortunately kids are easily manipulated to believing things especially if its mom.
@@kimberlylozano2881 exactly. Especially if Mom has pulled the whole "He abandoned us" and "It's all his doing" cause Dad is the bad guy. Mom is likely her "Bestie" instead of the Mom. It's disgusting how she was clearly prepared and jumped right into rage and anger. It was weird the way she reacted. Way over the top. I'd bet mom bribed her with promises of getting to do something she has desperately wanted to do.
Horrible mother for putting the child - and I mean child - on the stand. She’s so hostile and she will regret this when she is older.
Actually since she's 15, I say she has something to say. Judge wanted to listen too. And look, if she spends week in distant place in a room alone - that's like a prison. Does it make any sense? Father needs to do better, he just can't. I don't blame him, he works very hard. She is not appreciating saving lifes takes away life from the saver.
Mom is ridiculous the daughter is 16 she doesn't need a baby sitter she can visit her father even if he has to work. I mean come on does mom take off work while Ella's lives with her.
Of course not! Women have no problem with men working if it benefits them, but then use it against them when it comes to parenting time.
so the mother has weaponized her child and the judge lectures the father about building a better bond with the brat and then proceeds to give him less time when only more time can give them a chance to rebuild as the judge wanted!
In my opinion this is the typical mom turned the daughter against the dad so I have the cure. The daughter no longer has to have visitation and at the same time the dad doesn’t pay support or for any camps, cars, etc. dad can provide health insurance and the mom can pay every thing else. If and when the child matures wanting a relationship with him then the dad can choose whether or not he wants to give her any college help.
What a nasty teen. She can't even be respectful to lawyers in a courtroom. I remember what it was like to be upset with my father while I was younger when he got remarried and I felt like he didn't have time for me.
I hope one day she understands how important a relationship with her father is. You only get one mother and one father. There are a lot of parents who don't care to try to see their children. This father is trying yet she's upset he works a lot. At 15 you don't understand that if you don't work you can't pay rent or child support. One day she'll hopefully understand that.
The way she reacted to Dads lawyer is who that kid really is. How hwr personality really is. A spoiled brat thats aloud to do whatever she wants with mom. Dad had to work to support the family. He was probablybthe disciplinary as well while mom got to take her shopping and be the fun parent. And im sure mom says all kinds of nasty things about dad right along with her daughter. Very sad. But him not giving up hopefully one day shows that kid that her dad loves her and fought for her.
The father bent over backwards to propose multiple schedule options to accommodate her, provides a nice lifestyle for her, and this is the thanks she gives him. Anything extra he provides should be taken away. If it’s not court ordered, he shouldn’t pay for it. Since she has such a nasty attitude towards him and his work, don’t benefit from it. Is anyone asking the mother to not work during her parenting time? People have to work and make a living. This is an absolute ridiculous situation and clearly they have nothing else to complain about. To have such an involved father and figuratively spit in his face this way is clear parental alienation
That child is rude and entitled, to speak to anyone like that is horrible. Dad was set up by the 2 of them. If it me I would let go her go and not supply anything other than the child support give the brat what she wants. The dream car wouldn’t happen until she learnt some manners.
Wow! Such contempt for her father. But she's happy to spend his money. You can see the affect that her hostile mother has had.
Mom should not be allowed around this child ever again.
She reminds me of my step daughter. Best thing she ever did was disown us at 17. She was an entitled, selfish brat thanks to her mom.
Daughter is very defensive..mom has made her hate her dad.. this is ridiculous that moms are allowed to do this..
Daughter is a spoiled brat. Her dad seems genuinely concerned about her. I suspect her mom is behind this. The judge is unreasonable and has no concept of how most people work. Bet neither the mother or daughter turns down the child support. If I was dad I would wash my hands of both of them
Not to mention spousal support
Mom has poisoned daughter against dad..
What an absolute brat. If that had been my kid I sure as *bleep* wouldn’t be allowing her to go to any camps.
Such an ultra privileged child who gets opportunities kids could only dream of thanks to dad paying for things! Hhhmmmmmm......dad working like a dog, so this girl can act like a brat.....less than 3 years, dad.
She's a kid...She doesn't get yet how hard you have to work to provide all of the things that pay for what she wants to do
If the mother is trying to harm their relationship that's shameful!
What a disrespectful child, not only to her father but also to his lawyer. It's okay for her father to pay for everything, but she doesn't want to see him. It sounds like she has been given everything she ever wanted, and never had to earn anything.
I always wonder how things would change in situations like this if the parent who loses time in these situations also received credit for child support and no longer had to pay as much as a result. Would the custodial parent suddenly be more willing to compromise? Would they stop attempts to make the non-custodial parent look bad? Maybe.
I do not blame the father. Work situations happen. Sometimes relocation for a job is better for the child. If they were still together it is possible they all would have moved to Utah for the exact same job, so the move is not the problem. The issue is the apparent refusal of the mother and child to compromise.
If mom and daughter want to be so absolutely disrespectful and act so entitled with the father who is trying to find the best solution for everyone, then he shouldn't have to pay child support or anything else. If child support or other support was stopped when one side behaves this way, im pretty sure we wouldn't see this type of alienation so much.
What I hear is a child that has been poisoned by the mother. Don't forget to get that money from daddy and all the benefits of his money but the extended time with mom who hates the dad has clearly rubbed off. She is so darn rude and disrespectful. I feel for this dad. I bet at 18 she's still gonna expect daddy to pay for school and when she gets married she will make that phone call to daddy. This just sucks. My heart is so sad for dad and so sad for the damage this mom has done to that child.
Cut the child support.
Child support needs to stop and dad needs to walk away until the kid realizes he’s not just a paycheck. This poor man wants to be a real dad and doesn’t want to just be a paycheck. I feel for this man. That mother has completely ruined that relationship.
The daughter is going to regret not spending the time she had with her father when she gets older. I went almost 18 years with out seeing my father and now he is close to 80 year old. I regret every minute it of my choice not to see him. In the past 8 years I've been back in his life and I wish I did it it sooner. Life is short, embrace every moment you have with your parents.
This mother definitely was smiling at her daughter's outbursts. She was definitely coached and mom likely sits and puts things in her head about how "Dad does not do anything with me" "Its all his fault" blah blah blah.
So Dad is FORCED to take time off work when he can't? Wtf?
I don't agree with the judge at all. Minors don't get to make those types of decisions. Miss Rude 16 year old should not be entitled to child support and father should not have to pay for a hotel in TN to visit with her for 2 weeks. Cut that support off and see how her attitude changes.
This judge needs to retire. He is never for the dads. If dad can’t see the child, then he only pays child support for the days he does.
She probably runs her mothers house. There is no way my child would talk to an adult like that in front of me.
Excellent judge who listens, hears and tries to consider the needs and wants of the family, within the constricts of the law.
It will be good when Ella turns 18 and she can make her own choices.
Next this mom will probably file for more child support because of the dad have less overnights.
We know it
Man, Ella is a bit of a cranky pants. Bet she enjoys dads money though
What a hateful sounding child. Not sure where that's coming from but uncalled for.
It amazes me when the Mother has Custody of the Child she can get the Child to do what she ask her to do,i beleive the Mother Enrolled there Daughter in summer Programs so she wouldn't have to go see her Father,for 15 there Daughter sounds like she has a Smart mouth and her Mother can't control her..She'll be 16 going 30 the way she talk
Exactly then uses that as a way to make it where the father is horrible for wanting his awarded custodial time. And of course the moms atty is grilling him on his work well im sure mom works also. Like wow.
Dad needs to come see her when he can...just let her go where she wants...move on dad she doesn't deserve ur money or love
I may be the oddball opinion here, but I actually feel sorry for this child. None of us know the full story, and regardless of what we see in these hearings, it's always heartbreaking to see any child have to go through this. I say this with having to co-parent with 3 separate dads. I can't say we've always gotten along. What I can say is we co-parent much better than before and it shows in our children. They're thriving, they're happier, and I feel like they've regained some of their innocence. Was this young lady rude and disrespectful? From a parental standpoint, absolutely. Did she sound hurt, angry, and frustrated? Absolutely. We have to remember she's still a child. If the judge has had to warn BOTH of these parents about "getting along" before, then they've both participated in creating this hostility in this girl. I hope we as people and especially adults can show a little more compassion towards our adolescents.
I would walk away for now if I was dad. He should be afraid that she'll make up an outrageous lie just to get him in trouble.
That child has a real bad attitude. Life is going to teach her a hard lesson when Daddy stops paying for everything!
The daughter is a spoiled brat. Bet she likes the money he has to pay.
Yup ... that's what I said. That anesthesiologist money!!!
She is a brat and likely alienated from her father because of her mother.
The mom has done a number on this child...yes a child! So its ok for Daddy to pay for everything she could ever dream of but thats the extent of it! This girl needs some manners and start showing respect for BOTH parents! Of course we dont know the back story but this is ridiculous! What parent can just take off work willy nilly to cater to the whim of their children? It sure seems like parental alienation to me!!
Shivers she’s really rude. Dad I hope you cut off her college fund and don’t even think paying for her wedding.
I found this child’s behavior shocking. She needs a good talking to
So rude
It’s too late for that, surely mother like daughter.
Right?!? I think she doesn’t really know what’s best for her plus it would seem as if she’s always gotten her way so judge essentially giving in to her demands she’s going to continue to act like that. She needs a serious reality check!
I wouldn’t waste my time that mother has poisoned the daughters mind. If he pays child support, I definitely would have it reevaluated.
This young lady has her mother's attitude, no reason for all the hostility
I see a lot of people blaming mom but I am not sure that is the case. She testified when she did see her dad it was mostly grandma that kept her. This is just a hard situation. I believe dad may be to blame for this and not mom. The disrespect from daughter is wild. His money is what gives daughter the luxury of going to these events. He has no choice but tonwork 50 hours a week most men are in this situation but I am not sure how dad allowed his relationship to deteriorate to this point. His daughter seems to hate him.
What an ungrateful child! My mother passed having me and my grandmother raised me. She worked alot so i spent lots of time with my papa and great grandparents. I would give anything to spend more time with them and wish they were here for my kids. As for dad i wish i had a dad that cared enough about me to even see me or fight for me. My dad passed last year and my children had no idea because he was never in their lives. Hopefully this young girl sees all these comments and she can see how truly fortunate she is!? Cut her dad some slack and make the most of her time with dad and grandmother.
Father has a good job, I’m sure the child support is high and the mother is enjoying that…. But she’s not willing to co parent 🤦♂️
My heart breaks for this father. If my child spoke like that, oh boy would she have a few things coming to her. Spoiled brat. Can only imagine what the mother is like. Very sad.
Judge seems fair and sensible in this case. The Dad seems to be trying to be flexible and accommodating within the restrictions of his work schedule. Where i work the summer school holiday period is considered a peak leave period and must be worse for him having to be on cal for part of it.
The daughter at the very least seems a little off when being cross examined. Who knows what the mom is saying to her in private but i doubt its anything good. And this is me being generous
Daddy.. stop extra money! Your daughter is ungrateful!
She wants everything he pays for, but expects him to be home all the time. Ungrateful brat.
The 16 yr old will feel different once she gets older.
I doubt it, mom won’t do anything to change the behaviour
@@denisewilson9783 wait but she will eventually see what her mom is doing to her when she realizes her mom sucks and the only person that she ever actually had behind her was her dad. It might take a long time, but it always happens whether they want to admit it or not she will see that her mom never really cared and it’s really sad that the father and dog here could’ve probably had a great relationship if not, for the scorned woman who has to ruin everything and convinced her daughter that Dad’s a bad guy who left us in abandoned us
i hope that silly little girl realises when she turns 18 child support stops and mummy might not have enough money to spoil her, i feel sorry for her dad knowing what a little b...h he has brought into the world.
It's going to be a rough reality check when dad stops supporting her at 18 because she's so angry & rude.
It's beyond OBVIOUS that that poor, arrogant & entitled girl has been SERIOUSLY coached and BRAINWASHED by her Mother AGAINST her father! Something could - and _SHOULD_ - have been done about that mother's BLATANT ALIENATION and impediment to her ex-husband's relationship with THEIR daughter!!💯💯🙄🤦🏽♀️😡🤬🤬
She sounds so charming…I can now see why the father is fighting so hard to see her 😂
Sounds like Dad is a responsible, clear thinking, responsible, reasonable and articulate human being. I’m thinking Mum maybe a petty, immature, vindictive person who’s looking to punish and alienate Dad.. a very familiar pattern in conflicted situations like this. Keep on keeping on Dad! Good wins every time… it’s a slow burn but it does eventually happen!🎉😅
Wow I wasn't expecting that from her at all she started so sweet and soft spoken and then her whole self changed momma been doing some not so talking to her....she better grow up and realize how lucky she is to have a dad that cares and loves her
The judge should be saying this child needs to go not trying to talk Dad out of it and they sure like daddy’s money why would this judge just allow this child to talk so disrespectfully in a court?
If i were dad i would not pay child support for that bratty daughter.
Daughter thinks her mom is the only one making sure she has roof over her head and meals on the table, the only one funding her lifestyle! Time to wake up, bratty!
They need to give father full custody. How disgusting her attitude is. That comes straight from the mother. What a privileged brat. I wish I had a father like this.
Sounds like it is a combo of the Mom poisoning, Dad shouldn't have moved so far away, and the daughter is bratty, well, because she is 15.
If my kid talked about me like this, and I was trying my best to be there as a parent, I’d move on with my new family. I felt bad for the dad after hearing the daughter talk like that about him
What a nasty child
Can’t be too mad at the kid. Seems like the divorce was ugly. Sure hope mom is embarrassed by how disrespectful she was though.
The father moved out of town. He should come to the child. They are they having this meeting about a 16 year old. Ask her what she wants.
Gets her smarts from daddy and her attitude from mom. Kept it together until his lawyer’s cross examination- wow! Bitter young lady.
If the daughter hates him so much that she cant go see him for more than 4 days he should terminate his rights to stop child support and cut his losses. Im sure she and her mom enjoy that fat child support check
Agreed that’s exactly what I said
Would Mom like to have her child support lowered when Mr. Wells gets let go from his job? Would that nbe in Ella's best interest? Once again Dad's time with the child is not a priority. Mom obviously has the time and the inclination to sabotage the child's relationship with her father. This child has been coached and she is an ungrateful spoiled brat. She doesn't have any trouble hurting her Father's feelings which is a nasty character trait and she and her Mother should be ashamed. Mom has done a crap job of raising her to be a kind and considerate child! Her reason for a bad relationship is he was always working. Funny, since I'm sure she wouldn't want to give up her lavish lifestyle. Things would be entirely different if Dad was a garbage collector. I wonder if she would like to give up all of her expensive, fun activities? They would never have been offered if Dad wasn't a doctor!
Absolutely agree!
The mother should not tolerate the daughter’s attitude toward the father. My guess is it’s more than tolerated. The father is probably out of luck having a relationship with the daughter. He should have never moved out of state. The mother has her all the time and uses that time to poison the relationship with the father. Thank God my children never had to go through any of this.
ELLA may short CRUELLA. Either way she needs an attitude adjustment and learn the word NO.
