More About Me...

The Psycho Ex Wife is the true account of a marriage, divorce, and subsequent custody fight between a loving man, his terroristic ex-wife who we suspect suffers from Borderline Personality Disorder (at least from our armchair psychologist diagnosis), and the husband's new partner. We are not simply anti-mother or pro-father ... Read more

Why Talk About It...

The site is intended to help people in similar situations. I have always felt like no one really knew or quite understood the level of chaos that had existed in my life, and this is a way to express it all without burdening personal friends and family with such horrors ... Read More

It’s not going to happen.  I’ll start by simply pointing out that it is constitutionally-protected free speech.  That’s the easy part.

The bottom line is that we’ve gone to great lengths to protect the identities of those who are oftentimes the topics of our venting, our articles, your contributions, our advice and suggestions, and so on.  The reality is that this website is, for the sake of argument, completely anonymous.  For anyone who isn’t a part of the actual events depicted - everything posted on here is complete fiction.  Or, it’s fiction that is loosely based on “real-life events.”  Or - it’s the frigging truth.  Whatever it is or isn’t - it’s a threat to no one.  It’s damaging to no one.  It’s proven helpful to many.  We’re not talking five or six people.  We’re talking about many thousands.  This is why this site exists and will continue to exist.

Let’s consider this blog post an update to our About Us and Why Talk About it On the Internet pages.  Some of it is rehashing exactly what we felt when this all started.  Plenty will add to those original thoughts.

April 30th, 2010 - The Argyle Sweater Comic

From a very interesting site called The Argyle Sweater, comics by Scott Hilburn… this one seems to have everything covered… child custody, child support, child abuse (a stretch, but hey - eating your young would qualify…)

The Argyle Sweater

I think it captures the essence of so many high-conflict situations…

Mr. Custody Coach Radio Show

One of the many benefits of the Mr. Custody Coach website, are the radio shows.  Along with the efforts that are made to help people plan to win child custody in a more meaningful capacity, there are many articles and programs that discuss the issues that are an inherent part of the process.  The radio program helps support the many articles on the Mr. Custody Coach blog as well as the information that is accessed by the membership.

In addition to several important guests who have been a part of recent programs, such as Bill Eddy from the High Conflict Institute (discussing choosing an attorney) and Jan Elizabeth Brown from the Domestic Abuse Helpline for Men and Women (discussing domestic violence issues and helping all victims regardless of gender) - Mr. Custody Coach has covered other important topics which are summarized below.  MRCC also has many other great guests and topics to come!

The best part is, even if you cannot listen live, the programs are available here and on the Mr. Custody Coach websites “on-demand” so that everyone can listen to the programs when it’s convenient for their schedules.  Please be sure to visit, sign-up if you’re in need of services, or even download the recently released e-book: Creating Custody Agreements for a low introductory price.  We are certain that you will find the information extremely helpful in preparing a plan in advance of meeting with an attorney so that you can spend your time and money on the implementation of your plan - where those resources are better allocated.  (The e-book is free with membership.)


SCHEDULE: Upcoming Shows

October 28, 2009 2PM EST - Low Contact: Why and How to Implement

Join us as we discuss what low contact is, how it will benefit your family and how you go about implementing low contact in your current custody situation.

PAST SHOWS

October 21, 2009 2PM EST - Choosing A Custody/Divorce Lawyer With Expert Bill Eddy

Bill Eddy joined us and discussed what you need to look for when choosing an attorney, particularly if your custody situation is of the high-conflict variety.  In addition, there was plenty of discussion about the characteristics of the high-conflict personalities both in litigants and attorneys and how people can make the best possible choices as they move forward with their situation.

October 14, 2009 2PM EST - Domestic Violence With Expert Jan Brown:

Jan Brown joined us to discuss domestic violence facts and fiction.  Additionally, discussion centered around the resources that are available to both men and women as well as some recent domestic violence law changes that have found resources to be unfairly geared towards only women while providing no benefits for battered men and their male children.

October 7, 2009 - Dirty Tricks Used in Custody Battles:

Michael and Lexi discussed several of the dirty tricks used in custody battles that many have experienced and are commonly a part of high-conflict divorce and custody disputes.

September 30, 2009 - Custody Agreement Do’s and Don’ts:

During the inaugural show, Michael and Lexi covered many of the “dos and don’ts” that need consideration when crafting a custody/parenting plan.  Depending upon individual circumstances, a shared parenting plan or a primary/secondary parenting plan may be implemented.  This helpful program discussed how the custody agreement can often create as many problems as it solves.

You can join and participate in the live programs for free!  However, you must register at blogtalk radio to participate in live chat here: Join The Chat During The Show

We hope that you will participate live, and if you can’t, simply come back, listen, and maybe learn some things.  You can do that here or at the Mr. Custody Coach website.


Important Announcements: Mr. Custody Coach and More…

Announcement #1:

As you all know, in March, LM lost his job. When not searching all of the usual internet job sites and pouring over newspapers for work, we have been working on a project to help others going through custody issues as we receive hundreds of e-mails each month asking for solutions to problems. We spend a lot of time helping, but we wanted to find a way to help more people in a much more efficient manner, and create a business around it so that LM can continue to support the family. So, it is with great pride and hope that we share with our readers that we have created a new website with which we hope to help many more people through difficult custody issues.

Mr Custody Coach is geared towards people going through high conflict divorce and custody situations, to help them create custody agreements that will minimize problems, and deal with other issues such as false allegations and parental alienation. That doesn’t mean we can’t help those looking for ideas and assistance with planning for low-conflict/no-conflict divorce and custody arrangements!  We can help with that, too!

We have put together a great team of experts and have planned a full compliment of plans including: conference calls, guides, programs, and private forums where you can get specific advice for your unique situation. We are also launching a radio show where you will be able to listen to experts such as Randi Kreger and Bill Eddy discuss issues many of you are dealing with in your current relationships and raising children in the midst of a hostile custody situation.

We are making this announcement for several reasons, the first of which is to ask for your help in launching this website. If you have a blog or website of your own, or know someone else that does, we would greatly appreciate a link, for which you can find several suggested links at the end of this post. Links are critical to helping spread the word far and wide.  We would also be happy to write a guest post for you on any custody or divorce topic, parenting & step-parenting - just shoot us an e-mail! If you believe you have a website that has readers who could benefit from the help of a custody coach, you might also consider joining our affiliate program where you can earn a commission each month for every member you send to us. You can read more about that and join here.

The second reason is to let you know if you need additional help creating a custody agreement that works, want to go low-contact but aren’t sure how to implement it, want to protect yourself from false allegations, or need to create a custody plan to take to your attorney, you can join Mr. Custody Coach for just $29.95 per month, and you can even get a 15% discount by entering the code 2045255B23 when you become a member.

Announcement #2:

At the request of many people who have followed the blog and/or joined the forums, we are adding a “donations button” to both locations. We are very grateful and appreciative that readers would think so much of us and what we provide for all. We have resisted doing so out of pride and a profound sense that we didn’t want to impose upon the readership, make anyone feel obligated, or otherwise turn anybody “off.” However, it does cost money (which DW has so graciously paid for the last 2-years) and take time to dedicate to our cause and our desire to help everyone seeking assistance.

So, we’re doing it. We are not going to make a big deal about it. You are under NO obligation to make a donation. It is there if you wish to at any time. You can also choose to become a member of Mr. Custody Coach if you want to gain additional information to help your custody case instead of just donating.  Sign up for a month and come take a look around.

We hope that we have helped every single one of you who come here and if you feel that our assistance moved you to do something like that, we are very thankful. The truth is, everyone here helps us in some way, shape, or form every day. For that, too, we thank you all very much.
