Clotfelter, and files this Answer with New Matter, as follows: 1. Admitted. 2. Admitted. 3. Admitted in part and denied in part. It is denied that the minor children were born in wedlock. These parties have never been married. Defendant (hereinafter referred to as "Father") also denies any implication herein that the presence of the children in the custody of Plaintiff (hereinafter referred to as "Mother") is proper in that Mother removed the children from the residence without Father's consent and Father wishes to have the children returned to his custody and the home in which they hav,e lived the last two (2) years. The other allegations of this paragraph are admitted. 4. Admitted. 5. Denied. It is denied that the individuals listed are the only people residing in the residence. In further answer hereof, Mother and the children that ar'~ the subject of this proceeding have moved into the home of Mother's father, the maternal grandfather, Floyd Ewing, Sf. 6. Denied. Father lacks sufficient knowledge information to determine the truth of the averments in this paragraph therefore, same is denied and strict proof thereof is demanded at trial. 7. Denied. It is specifically denied by Father that granting Mother primary custody ofthe children is in their best interest. The subparts of this allegation are further denied as follows: (a) Denied. It is specifically denied that Mother is in the best position both financially and emotionally to provide a stable and responsibk environment for the children. In further answer hereof, Mother's recent erratic conduct is an example of her emotional instability, and permitting the children to reside primarily in such an unstable environment is not in their best interest. (b) Denied. See answer to subsection (a) above. In fUrther answer hereof, Mother has admitted to Father that children are not adjusting well to their recent move to their grandfather's house. ( c) Admitted in part and denied in part. It is admitted that it is in the best interest of the children to maintain a relationship with Mother, however any implication that is the only parental relationship of importance is denied. In further answer hereof, it is also important that the children maintain a relationship with Father. (d) Denied. It is denied that Mother has been the only primary caretaker for the children. In further answer hereof, Father has provided primary care for the children on a regular basis since birth. He has had the opporttmity to bath and feed them and he is the parent that retrieves them from school each day because he is home from his employment much earlier than Mother. 8. Admitted. WHEREFORE, Father, Daniel R. Ickes, respectfully requests that this Honorable Court deny Mother's requests for primary physical custody, and grant the parties shared legal custody with primary physical custody to Father and partial physical custody to Mother at times as mutually agreed. DEFENDANT'S NEW MATTER COUNTJERCLAIM 9. Defendant's responses to paragraphs one (1) through eight (8) are incorporated herein as if fully set forth. 10. Father seeks shared legal custody and primary physical custody of the children that are the subj ect of this proceeding. 11. Granting Father's request for shared legal custody and primary physical custody is in the best interest of the children for the following reasons: a. Father is able to provide a stable home environment that is familiar to the children because they have lived there for the past two (2) years. Returning the children to their home with Father would permit them to again experience the structure that is essential to the healthy emotional, spiritual, and physical development of the children. Also, it would be less disruptive for the: parties' daughter, Cheyenne, who is very shy and quiet, in that she could retum to the same school that she had been attending for the last two (2) years. b. Father has been a primary caregiver for the children since their birth and if Father is not available to provide care, Father has a support structure available to assist him with the care of the children. More specifically, the paternal grandfather, Daniel Ickes, is retired and as a result is available to care for the children during those times when they are not in school and Father must work. c. Father would encourage the children's relationships with both parents and extended family members because it is in the best interest ofthe children. d. Mother's conduct has been erratic and is indicatilve of her emotional instability and her misplaced motivations resulting in conduct that is not in the best interests of the children. More specifically, Mother removed the children from the residence in which the family lived without informing Father. In addition, Mother has been using the children, this proceeding, and a divorce proceeding (despite the fact that the parties were never married), to force Father to agree to certain material purchases that Mother desires. WHEREFORE, Father, Daniel R. Ickes, respectfully requests that this Honorable Court grant the parties shared legal custody and grant Father primary physical custody with partial custody to Mother as agreed upon by the parties and grant such other relief as this Court deems just and proper.
