My question involves a child custody case from the State of: IL
My ex's current girlfriend requires the kids to call her "Mama", claims the kids as "her kids" socially, and does a lot of things that seem inappropriate to me, but claiming them as her kids really gets my knickers in a knot.
My ex-husband is barely present when the kids are with him and yells at them constantly, but seems to have no real rules regarding basic parenting. He does stupid things such as not making sure they are brushing their teeth or even showering adequately. They are 9 and 10 and when they come back to me they stink. The kids say the house is a mess (I've never been inside GF's house).
What defines parental interference in Illinois and when does dumb parenting cross the line?
Thank you very much.
