Divorce And Custody Challenges

Summary

Navigating a divorce and child custody battle can be emotionally challenging. In California, workplace harassment is illegal, and the Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA) protects employees jobs under certain conditions. If youve informed your employer about your situation and still face unfair treatment, it could be considered FMLA retaliation. Harassment that creates a hostile work environment is also unlawful. You have the right to address your concerns with HR and should consider seeking legal counsel for detailed advice.

Not to mention that she wants to keep full custody of my daughter. That pain has been very hard to process. I've been calling out of work so much due to the pain. I don't know how to manage it.
