    Can child choose to not come home even if custody order is in effect

    I did tell the cops that I have the custody order, but they said it was not in their line of duty to enforce those things, that I would have to file papers in court for the father not following the order. I did call another local police dept just to see if they'd say anything different, but they...

    Can child choose to not come home even if custody order is in effect

    In that situation, she did not know where her daughter was for days. The police were involved from the beginning and once they found out where the daughter was staying/hiding, they did not charge the family member with anything. They said that since the child was safe, with a relative, and did...

    Can child choose to not come home even if custody order is in effect

    Thanks. I didn't mean to sound like I was answering my own question, or acting like you guys don't know what you're talking about.. My friend's daughter ran away a few months ago as well. She didn't like her mother's rules, wanted to hang out with boys etc etc. She went to a relatives house...

    I have plenty of evidence in regards to encouraging deliquency ... it is just that I know it will turn into a huge mess and stressful times that I'd rather not endure. I have been soooo extremely tolerant of so many inappropriate behaviors and situations, just to avoid a hassle with courts and...

    Can child choose to not come home even if custody order is in effect

    The police will not get involved with a civil matter. I'll assume I have to file contempt. One on hand I worry about a court battle, but on the other I don't. I have many valid points against them, but they have a clan/family of liars who will walk into court and say anything on a whim.

    Can child choose to not come home even if custody order is in effect

    I have primary physical custody. Father has visitation every other weekend. We have shared legal custody. My 15 yr old daughter decided the other day to go spend the night with her dad. It wasn't his scheduled visitation, but I did not oppose. 2 days later, she informs me that she will not...
