I last year gave my sons father joint custody and after 3 years of not being a father I allowed him to help me a little and let my son stay with him during the week well until Thursday each week. He recently married and she has kids. Even though he has physical custody I have my son 98 percent of the time. I hve not reversed my order because he has a wife and a nice house were I stay with my parents. He does not speak with me just my parents. His mother has our son when he says he does. Also he makes up stuff when he gets him to try to make me look bad because he never has him such as I am racist but our son is mixed with black. I love my child and he cries whenever you mention leavingme. Also he went to the beach and excluded my son just his step kids. I do not know what to do. Please help

It sounds like you do not have a court order for custody/visitation. Without one he is not obligated to do anything at all, nor are you.
I had sole custody for 3 years and he paid child support now I gave him joint legal and he is to reside with his dad but he is with me 98 percent of the time. I want to reverse the order but hehas a wife and a better job. He Iis always leaving him with his mother when he is supposed to have him.

Is this a court order or something you made up on your own?
If you have the child 98% of the time I'm not sure what you are unhappy about, unless it is that you are not able to completely control the child's father.

Unless signed off by a Judge nothing you have agreed to is legal or binding. As MM has stated is this through courts or did you do this between the two of you?

Work it or any changes out in court.

The child's ancestry has NOTHING to do with ANY of this.
You can't award custody. Custody is awarded by a judge. Whatever you have isn't worth the paper you wrote it on.
As far as the way you allege dad to behave, you picked him to sire you. You bred Junior, so the court won't second guess that. Stay to the facts, get a job, make money (or get training or an education), become independent and be a great mommy to Junior.
