What to do if the mother of my children is being unreasonable and will not allow me to speak to them?

Our children are 3 and 4 I have been taking are of all them including her for the last 4 years financially. About 11 months ago, she decided to move out of state. Since then she has moved our children to 3 different households and now is becoming very unreasonable and confrontational. I am a very active parent in my children’s life and travel there every month to visit them. I was inquiring about what if any options I have.

I am so sorry for your situation.  You do indeed sound like a very active and loving Dad.  But may I ask: are you married to their mother?  If not, do you have an order of custody?  If the answer here is no then you need to get ana ttorney and establish custody and visitation.  The problem is that you need to do so in the state in which they now reside.  Please get legal help to establish your rights here.  Good luck.
