The school is entirely within its rights.

Congratulations! Job well done to your daughter, and to Mom and Dad! It's nice to read good news on here!

In that case, my info may not apply. I'm not familiar with Canadian laws; however, I believe dee_dub may be. If you leave a visitor message for him, he may be able to help you. Here's a link to his profile: http://www.thelaw.com/forums/member.php?u=56333

To answer the question in your original post: Yes, it has to go through the court again.

So file for a modification of the child support and ask for retroactive. I honestly can't tell what happened and when from reading your posts. Maybe the change in visitation didn't affect the child support enough to warrant a change. Maybe your arrears figured into the order. Maybe you're...

Spousal support is not child support. Did she agree to reimburse you for spousal support that you paid to her? Does she agree to pay you for the child support that you already paid? If so, then that's a different situation. Well, that's a little different than the way you posted it earlier...

Have you contacted the child support enforcement agency about it? That's where you should start. You post is a little confusing. Who has the child? Are you more than 12 weeks in arrears? If you are more than 12 weeks in arrears, they can withhold 55%. Does the $2681 include your SSD? Is...

Unfortunately, I don't think there's anything you can do now. Sorry.:(

I wasn't asking because I was offended. I hope it didn't come across that way. Just curious. I agree that some people forum shop for a better (i.e. more-to-their-liking) reply. I don't think of it as getting a second opinion, because on most sites, they usually get many more that just a...

The IRS will not release his tax return to you.

Looks like this OP posted here before she got any replies on the other site. In general though, do you think posters get the advice they want to hear when they come here, after posting elsewhere and getting advice they didn't want to hear there?

Have you spoken to his doctor and his teachers about this?

Is this a public school? Do you have a contract? Union?

He waived the test, thereby acknowledging paternity.

In most states, step-parent adoption is not allowed until the potential step-parent has been married to the parent for a year or more. Boyfriends are generally not allowed to adopt. It is also generally true that termination of parental rights is not possible without a subsequent step-parent...
