Re: 2-party state; recording of one side of telephone conversation -- legal or not?

You may have coherent replies that you're choosing not to because there
are relevant matters that you haven't disclosed. Hard for me to know in
that case, obviously.

But I'm fairly confident of my comprehension of what you have actually
written. No matter how flip or condescending you think I've been, I'm
offering you free and, as it happens, sound advice.

- Recording your phone conversations is a potential cause of problems,
not solutions

- If your lawyer has been practicing family law in Illinois for a
reasonable length of time, he or she probably knows what's up.

- If you suspect otherwise, misc.legal is not the place to figure it out.

- It sucks to be a single parent; it sucks to have a jerk for an ex; it
sucks not to be able to make it better for yourself. But I don't see the
gain in making it worse for your kid.

- That it's easy for me to say all this doesn't make me wrong.

Again, Thanks for your time.

De nada.

Good luck. Really.

I didn't say that you were wrong ... but putting forth a patronizing
attitude based on simple spelling mistakes isn't really a good
foot to put forth if you want a mature, civil interaction. That
said ...

There is much more to a child's well-being than finances. Are
they important, most certainly. Are there other factors that
shouldn't be dismissed because other kids don't have the
financial support that they require, most certainly. It appeared
that you had taken the same attitude that I'm getting from
the attorney ... and my patience for that is gone.

I don't want to record myself to use it against him ... I want
to record myself so that he can't go into court and misrepresent
exchanges between us. If he makes accusations, I want to be
able to _prove_ that I am not abusive toward him and that when
he chooses to flake on her and not see her for months at a
time, it's not due to my actions but by his own choice.

Thanks for the "Good luck" ... I fear I'm gonna need it.
