This morning I have a custody hearing and my daughter has a fever and does not feel well. What should I do?
Go because if you don't it could go in favor of dad! If you hav to take her.
Go. Find a way to get there. If your only childcare option is day care and she can't go b/c of the fever, then take her with you. If you don't go, it will look very badly on you, no matter what the reason. They don't like for you to bring children with you, but just explain to them how important you know the hearling is and that she can not go anywhere else.
I agree with the other poster. Take her with and say you didn't want to bring her but she has a fever and she can't get into a day care. It will show that you thought it was important enough to show up and if they post pone it they'll know that she really is sick and you didn't make something up. What a day for her to get sick,huh? Been there done that. Court is icky enough without having a sick one on top of it. Hope all goes well. Maybe they'll have someone sit with her in the hallway so she doesn't hear anything. You never know.
Go...find a way to make it work. Its too important to miss out on. Find a way to go!!
Figure out a way to go. Staying home because your child is ill is not an excuse the court will buy.
bring her there tell the judge you would like to delay today's hearing due to the illness - they will understand and should give it to you.
Hi J.. I would find someone to take care of my daughter and not miss the hearing. It might give the judge the wrong impression if you are not there. Good luck. Hope all works in your favour.

Go and get a family or friend to watch her...This is too important to miss.
See if you can pay a friend or beg a family member to take off from work and stay with her. Whatever you have to do to make it there do it. I would try to avoid taking her because I am sure it would be difficult. I hope she feels better!
