We read.
From OP above:
I recently vacated my job and accepted another position that was a significant paycut, roughly 28% of what I used to make due to stress and unhappiness at my other job. In...
So texts and/or emails documenting resentment, hostility and threats towards the child is not a documentable safety issue?
OP if you have documentation of what has been said, I'd hang onto it and present it in court if possible - the hostility towards the child shown by both dad and especially the girlfriend combined...
I was a paralegal in Texas for 20 years.
This is one of those situations where it is VERY much at the judge's discretion.You can bring it up if you are going through the AG's office for something...
I agree. Ours is an extremely close family. It was actually her brother who did it for her. He has a family of his own, knows what a good mom she is and that she is more than capable of taking...
I actually have a family member in Texas that just went through this.
In Texas, if you have a family member who will sign as a co-guardian, who will accept responsibility, you can terminate the...
Does she like horses? Riding is something that can be completely flexible and workable. Most trainers will let you pick days that are agreeable, rescheduling is no problem. And once you start...
Not really - this is more a response to YEARS of lurking and reading court clerk's (mostly inaccurate and unfair) snark....
Wait, What??? Did you not see the last sentence of my post, or do you have reading comprehension issues? What I specifically said is that Every Child Is Different, and Reacts Differently... Where...
BooRennie - I switched schools in the middle of the year several times, to different states. And I can tell you that it DID cause long lasting damage.
Please don't take your own situation and...
Look at OPs second to last sentence. Mom's husband adopted the child. So I am guessing his rights were actually terminated....
I have to chime in here to say, IMO the whole "I did it, it's not a big deal" argument is about the most ridiculous argument there is. Every parent and every child is different. What worked for you...
Not necessarily Dog, you really don't know the situation well enough to judge.
It is really going to depend on 1) the age of the child; and 2) whether these baths make the child uncomfortable.
Dog, I agree with everything you've said except what OP said about sleepovers. I get the feeling she has banned sleepovers at her house, not altogether. She has girls, and has EVERY right to ban...
I would agree, however, this is a 17 yr old high school senior. This is one the, if not THE most important years as far as grades, graduation, college, scholarships, grants, etc. Most all schools...
In the words of CJane (on another board), who truly said it best.....
"I find it interesting that court orders are made with the best interests of the child in mind... but when one parent wants to...
Want to see disturbing - have y'all checked out that dads divorce forum? They refer to moms as NJs (nutjobs), and most sound like they are the NJs themselves.... This post here would be very...
Wait - I think people are making assumptions without asking some important questions...
How old is this child? Is he school age?
How far away is dad? Would the child have to change schools?...
Unfortunately this is something I have experinence with.
What he has now, is basically unenforceable rights. He wo't lose all parental rights while he's there - she would have to get his consent,...
Evenflo has a nice little portable electric one for a little over $35 - it works really well....
I have to disagree with the advice that's been given. The 'child' is only a month away from being an adult. And it's not like she's blowing off visitation completely, or is asking to change it...
Even with consent, it's a pretty complicated process. Your best bet handling any adoption is to hire an attorney.
I don't think so - HappyFamily did point out that you have to be married for at least a year. They simply went on to explain how it's done.
Look up the story of Madeleine McCann. Unfortunately, while it is horrifically crappy parenting, it is not illegal....
