I am proud of you. Keep up the good fight. I have been told over and over again on this site that my husband is not my kids dad. I agree that its a term of endearment. The courts do not on the other hand. My husband has been their "dad" for more of their life than their biological was. I am in...

BTW, "no contact" does not only refer to visitation, phone calls, letters, emails, and texting, but also to child support. :no: I know what no contact means. He has recently stated that he no longer plans on paying child support because he is going back to school. He calls every other month...

I have consulted an attorney, and funny they said you were wrong. On my other post you accused my of parent alienation, which is completely out of line. You do not know me or the circumstances of my divorce. And if you got some lessons on how to talk to people maybe you would be received a...

You have had negative comments on two of my quotes now. I would appreciate it if you would just refrain from answering my questions in the future. Your taunting nature is antagonistic and leaves no room for some one that is actually trying to help to respond.

if you look at the definition of parent alienation, that's not what's going on in my home, I do force my children to see their father, whenever he asks to see them. He has seen them exactly 10 times in five years. I do not speak ill about him at all in front of my kids and have been doing this...

have spoken to an attorney about this in Southern California and the prescedent set by case law in the State of California for a child to be able to refuse visitation is 11 years of age: this does not mean never seeing the non-custodial parent, it means "I have a ball game or a social event and...

They may take into consideration that the children don't want to be away from their other sibling. I know for a fact that Illinois family law is probably not even in the same reality as california law. Thanks for letting me know what it would be over there though

i know it is not eighteen in the state of california. I just wasn't sure if it was thirteen or eleven. There is a specified age when i no longer have to make them go. thanks though

What is the legal age in California that a child can refuse to go on visitation with the non-custodial parent? Do they take in consideration of other siblings not in the same marriage when deciding visitation? How many years of "no contact" does there have to be until my ex can have his...

The only problem with that is that he gets thirty days a year leave. The other two weeks he always spent partying with his friends. As far as being an active parent, if he quits drinking and telling the kids they have to choose every time they see him that would be different. I am not being the...

My ex husband and I have the standard custody arrangement. I have physical and we have joint legal. He has the right to visitation for one non consecutive week at a time for up to six weeks a year. Up until about three weeks ago, he only chose to visit our children twice a year and never had any...
