Do I have any rights to request she have a psychological eval?

Question

I was wondering if anyone knew (from experience or with legal knowledge) if I could request a psychological eval. for the wife of my child's father?

He was married little did I know when we were seeing each other and conceived the baby and the wife is aware of everything yet doesn't seem to me to really have processed what all this means in reality for her life and marriage and seems to be choosing to stay married so she will be in the baby's life too.
I just know if I were in her shoes I'd be a mess especially considering I just learned that she is unable to have children of her own and while I feel very sorry for her situation I do have concerns that she might not be mentally or emotionally ready to truly deal with having a child born out of her husbands secret affair in her life and home and I would like to be sure that she is not a threat or a loose cannon to have around my son for that matter either.

With these concerns and reasons in mind would it be out of line of me to request the evaluation be done before he can bring the baby to his home or within my rights as a mother concerned for her child's well-being?

Answer 1

No, unless there is real deviant behaviors suggesting serious mental illness you can't request this. It would be, and probably is, simple harassment and your attempt to alienate your child from the other parent.

Answer 2

Try to negotiate an acceptable deal out of court. If you go to court, you will all have psychological evaluations and the very expensive lawyers and psychologists will argue that you are all too messed up to have children.

The therapist will inform you if she is in basic terms too youthful to comprehend. stable success costly!

Answer 4

Unless you have some evidence to show that she is a threat, you have no rights whatsoever. The issue here seems to be that you're disturbed that she has stayed with him? You don't seem to be processing that he has chosen her over you. You need to accept that you were just a fling, and it's over now.

Answer 5

if she is a threat to herself or others, in FL theres a thing called the Baker Act. most states have an equivalent. its is a forced psychiatric eval by the police. they take her to a shrink for a certain amount of hours untill she is deemed able to leave or be admitted.

Answer 6

I don't think it would be granted. You need solid reasons for having it done and the fact that she stayed married to him doesn't make her mentally unstable.
