This, exactly.
If you had a court order for visitation YOU could have gone through the courts to enforce visitation. If you had a child support order YOU should have kept on top of it, your paying child support has nothing to do with you seeing the child or not
Im gonna delete everything else I had written in an attempt to make this easier.
I would suggest you continue to allow him to live where he's been happy, healthy and stable for the majority of his life and continue to be a mother in small increments until he makes the decision to come home to...
To update, as promised.
The child has plead No Contest to 3 charges, while I can not recall which 2 (slightly more) minor ones off hand the greater charge was for Grand Larceny, I believe the other charges were Fleeing the Scene of a Crime and Operating a Vehicle without a License The child...
I think this post is omitting numerous key points
You have supervised visitation with your child so it's possible that any final custody decisions were awaiting the report of the GAL and now that the report has been received thats warranted a change in circumstances.
Is DCFS (or CPS/CFS or...
What "Detrimental things" do you think your Ex having girlfriends is having on your children ? Are they promoting wild and unconsensual sex ? Handing out condoms and birth control to without permission or consent ? Has your ex has a serious relationship or just several flings ? Which part of...
I thought Texas still had a statute that stated any child born to a married [woman] was to be assumed a product of the marriage? I know when I had a child in Texas with my then married partner (to me) that they, the other parent still had to sign an affidavit although it may have been because...
the Original Post was made yesterday so as it's Friday OP wouldn't have even had a chance to "miss" school. Even a week generally isn't concerning especially if the custodial parent has informed the school the child will be removed. IF you want to report your own situation you're always welcome...
Yes hes been seen by everyone but i think not enough interaction. He has a psychiatrist who he saw last week who said his behavior was typical albeit abnormal and he was "just angry". We shall see what happens from here on out !
I have an eternally optimistic personality and I have been hopeful before. When the child originally went to the Childrens Home (and it was more of a structured setting than a jail or bootcamp type setting) he refused to speak to either parent, and eventually he engaged in therapy, family...
I have continued to state to the other parent that you can not make someone care, it's a hard pill to swallow none the less. I guess we're back to putting the oxygen mask on yourself first
I did speak to the police, in multiple jurisdictions however i am a non custodial parent and 2000 miles away so I did not pick him up.
To add some more backstory the child has been receiving therapies and counseling for years, he has never received an official diagnosis and was placed into a...
That is the point we are both reaching, i have been going back and forth about flying out for the trial/s, contacting the States Attorney, anyone who will listen but ultimately I feel like i am treading water and even the strongest swimmers will be subject to going under on occasion even if only...
I am not seeking help as to how to get my son out of trouble but more so questioning what may happen to him with his current circumstances. I understand that in some states minors can not commit offenses, but there must be a division between offenses and actual crimes ?
On a recent Tuesday...
