The pertinent information concerning the child who is the subject of this litigation is as follows: NAME DATE OF BIRTH CURRENTLY IN THE CUSTODY OF Jesse Eugene Souders Gochenaur Adrian Alexander Souders Gochenaur Samantha Jo Souders Gochenaur May 9,1994 May 9,1994 May 25, 1993 Maternal Aunt, Jean Saa Maternal Aunt, Jean Saa Maternal Aunt, Jean Saa 2. A Custody Conciliation Conference was scheduled on April 2, 2002 pursuant to the request of the Maternal Aunt's March 14,2002 request to reconvene the conference. The parties were last seen on February 4, 2002. Present for the conference were the Maternal Aunt, Jean Saa, and her counsel, Larry Rosen, Esquire; Dawn Gochenaur, the Mother did not attend, however, her counsel, Kenneth Wise, Esquire, did attend. Michael A. Souders attended as well, pro se. 3. The parties presently agreed to the form of an Order as attached. The Mother was not present and therefore did not participate in reaching the agreement. Her counsel opposed the delay recommended in the change to increased Mother's custodial time to weekly weekend custody effective April 12, 2002. In light of the concerns raised and the Mother's failure to attend the conference, the Conciliator recommends a change in the schedule to increase the frequency of Mother's custodial time to be delayed and to begin a new effective date of May 10, 2002. The Maternal Aunt requested to reconvene the Custody Conciliation Conference in light of behavioral changes she has observed in the - 1_.. ~--...~''''''' " ~,; . . ~ I < children with the increased frequency of contact with the Mother. She states that Jesse's grades are dropping and he is stopped all academic progress at school. An Individualized Educational Planning conference is scheduled for April 30, 2002 at his school. Adrienne periodically "shuts down" and becomes non-participatory in school work. An additional concern is that Samantha Jo, at age 8, continues to have difficulties with inuresis. The Maternal Aunt has also expressed concern that Samantha Jo is very unhygienic in her habits following toileting. However, Samantha Jo is doing better in school. The Maternal Aunt is very concerned that the children need to have as much stability as possible to assist them in dealing with their challenges. Other than the changes in Mother's upcoming custodial schedule, the balance of the recommended Order attached reflects the agreement of the parties in attendance and counsel for Mother. ~~aJo;-) Date , JJi2!AvrJ.f.
