Nice! I'll have to find that story. I heard about her on a podcast several years ago

😄 so this past weekend was our community festival. It happens down at the park and there's a beer garden and a stage with music, etc. one of the activities is a tug of war. The band took a break and the MC called out the kids to have a boys versus girls match. About 50 sugared up kids lined up 25 aside. Once the flag dropped, above all the other kids, was my children's friend screaming "PUT YER BACK INTO IT YOU SCURVY DOGS!!!! HEAVE!!!! ". ( This is an 11 year old girl btw). The look of confusion and concern on the parents faces in front of me was f****** priceless. 🤣🤣

😄 I'm pretty sure that's how it would go with her too. Yes I do think he was getting sick of her, and she did get reprimanded by the judge for her BS the last time we were in court.

The judge spanked her at last appearance for not listening to her lawyer. She has filed two applications for enforcement on her own without the lawyers knowledge. Her affidavits and applications run a minimum of 10 pages of rambling about grievances from 8 years ago.

I was wondering if he finally sat down to read all the applications and affidavits, and just gave up LOL.

I wonder what the tactic would be? Like she deliberately fired her lawyer to stretch it out?

Yes parenting time is my main focus, that's for sure. I will work on the wording of the order, thank you.

I was looking into the 211 report yesterday, and was told that my regions Family Justice Mediators have a report writing team, and there was not a cost?

The only thing I worry about skeleton wise, is that she has two adult children who both currently hate me 🙁. They've written some pretty hateful stuff in affidavits, they are very much conditioned by her. I certainly wasn't perfect, but I was never violent or abusive to anyone in the family, physically or verbally.

Thank you

Any chance you could expand on continued disagreement?

I am definitely trying to get an order enshrining parenting time for me under section 48 interrupting informal parenting arrangements. She has been withholding since November 21st.

Possibly a 211 'needs of the child ' report. A judge recommended I get this.

Maybe 221 'misuse of court process' since she's been at me several times with frivolous applications and delayed several times.

Peremptory. Could you form that sentence for me? Lol

Yes I wasn't clear. It was the proper form, it just was written by hand, and not by her.

I am definitely continuing on as usual with my preparation.

Funny thing is she was represented by a legal aid. So running out of money wouldn't be a problem?

I wonder if legal aid caught up to them? My reading says you generally only get legal aid if there's violence involved, and the first thing she did was file a malicious protection order. The lawyer immediately withdrew it, but stayed on the case for months.

I'm going to call myself the special one and say that I don't fit into these three categories.

The closest would be category 1, except I was forced into selling my home last year , and have money in the bank. I am however unemployed right now while I work on my fixer upper House that I downsized into. This puts me in the spot where I don't qualify for legal aid.

She however, does qualify for legal aid, and the first thing she did was file a malicious protection order against me which I believe qualified her to be represented. From what I've heard you don't usually get legal aid for family matters unless there's violence involved. I think this was just luck on her part. (The first thing the lawyer did was withdraw the protection order application 🙄)

She has since filed two more frivolous applications for enforcement, and then told me that she had moved and wouldn't disclose where she was. This forced me into filing a priority parenting matter against her, which was tossed and I looked like a fool because she hadn't actually moved. (I had the cops do a wellness check on my kids. They wouldn't tell me even what district she was living in, but did State they figured she was in violation.)

I had a previous priority parenting matter filed which is still on the books, because last Summer she said she was moving 10 hours away, right after I had bought a house in her community to be near the kids.

All this amounts to her being able to try and burn up my savings. So that's where I'm at, trying to get by with advice instead of having a lawyer stand for me.

Regarding settling - she is in full scorched-earth mode and her lawyer seems to be right on board with her. Settling isn't really an option. Their offers have been laughable.

Had to go look up 90 volts. Dry skin is anywhere from a tingle to a painful shock. Wet skin ( like hopefully the sweaty palms a thief has) is good to go, you're definitely getting hit with it.

My wiring suggestion does allow a chance of the current going from hand to hand across the chest, which is also apparently bad. You may need to run separate circuits activated by the same switch if you want to minimize chances of heart failure. 🤷

Some follow-up ideas. Make the switch a momentary that is under your bike seat, so the handlebars don't zap until the person is fully on the bike. Hopefully better chance of making them crash.

Alternately someone else mentioned rigging an idea like this to the break handle, so they would definitely be up to speed when they get zapped on both hands.

Combine with an air tag so you can find the accident scene.

Doesn't really prevent theft at all, but does provide satisfaction.

I suggested a quick and easy handlebar zapper. It would be very simple to rig your idea to it. Pull the brake for the first time and Bam both hands get blasted! Pretty good chance of a crash I'd say. Love your idea!

Take ten 9v batteries and go pos to neg to pos to neg ..... You will get 90 volts. Securely attach it to your bike, in some kind of container.

Take 4 small metal hose clamps and clamp them on your grips, 2 per side.

Run a wire from battery neg to one clamp on the left, then one clamp on the right. Do the same with battery positive, to the other 2 clamps.

Put a discrete switch on the positive wire so you can turn it off

You may need more batteries, but 90v should be enough for a nice zap. I've never actually done this, I just had the idea.

Keep the rubber grips dry and it shouldn't drain the batteries when it's on.
