Doesn't sound very hopeful. Their birth mother is a bitter and narcissistic woman. Not much chance of getting any willing cooperation from her. And I am sure that my son will not want to spar with her on my behalf to arrange visitation. He's had way too much of her resistance and arguments to everything. And these two teens adore him. Very sad.

Thanks for the info.
