So the only way to have it set in court order for them to claim her alternativly is if they both agree to it? Dad wouldn't have any chance of getting that set up if she doesn't want that right? What would happen if they got it set up and she later changes her mind?

ok thanks! Thought so. Its a shame but you're right he def. knows better now. Sometimes guys just dont listen... Mom did say dad could claim little one on next years taxes. Should dad get that in writting? maybe notarized? Even if he has it in writting can she still decide otherwise? If they...

Thanks you! Sounds good! I don't think mom has a problem with it. She's called me it infront of her and she's never corrected her or seemed to care at all. I think as she gets older or if mom has a problem with it she will revert to my name then mommy which is what she started with. I guess so...

ok heres the story. mom and dad have 5yr old child out of wedlock. support was set up but at the time custody wasn't(don't think that custody matters in this situation). There was a period of time when mom was leaving child with dad for 3 weeks out of the month for nearly 6 months. Dad stopped...

no it all makes perfect sense! I'd say I've mastered or at least got down pretty good the stay out of the parenting way. I don't disagree with dad at all. She asks me something I say ask dad. when it comes to something she shouldn't have done when dads not around (say write on the walls) I tell...

Very good point! Thank you! Just wanted the feel good of knowing someone else feels the same way!

THANK YOU SO MUCH GUYS! All this info. has been VERY helpful!! I'm sure as things progress I will have more questions as for now it's more of a waiting game to see what will happen next. All I can hope is everything in the end will work out for whats best for her. If that means mom gets her act...

Also, I'd like your opinion on this one. If little ones already aware of this possible change and has said she'd rather not have dads last name. Do you think dad should still do it? I mean she's only 5 so I don't really know how far her opion now would be remembered later. Do you think she would...

ok thank you! Thought there would be.

THANK YOU! So when the little one starts going to school dad is going to start making sure that she's not missing lots of days. Also if the hypothetical does happen where mom turns to dad to have her throughout the week to make sure that she is able to get to school and picked up should dad...

Thank you. The child is 5. She will be going to school this year. Also if there a fee for the name change or birth cert.?

Thanks! So dad has an equal say. unfortunetly I forsee if dad has one opinion for where she should go to school and mom has another mom will be the final say since she will be the one taking her and picking her up, hopefully. hypethetical, when kiddo does start going to school what would happen...

Ok here's the story. Mom and dad had a child out of wedlock. Dad was not told child was born until after the fact. So Mom gave the child her last name. Also dad was not put on the birth cert. Dad and mom have since been to court so custody and child support was set up. dad signed paperwork...

Thank you! Yes, that does help put it in better view for me. I didn't realize the impact the relationship had and how all of this really works. I understand it better now. So I understand now that dads chance of gaining custody, at least right now, is none. Is there any way dad can, since they...

She told him that she was on the pill. Yes there is like a .1% chance of her getting pregnant. She lied because she didnt want to use a condom. But thats whatever. He was told after the child was born that she went to get the abortion after she was too far along...I have no idea. I just go by...

sad thing is about the laying down with parent B she lied to dad saying she was on birthcontrol when she wasn't...when mom found out she was pregnant dad tried everything he could to make sure she had the baby. He wanted it and she didn't. She was going to get an abortion but came up with the...

good job! I have to say. I've now heard every readon why dads case is absolutley skrewed....Now the only other thing that would be helpful is how dad could work on a better case. But it really, from what you say, looks like the child will always be with mom unless something crazy happens in dads...

As far as CPS goes I've personaly witness with a friend all it should take is a call with concern for the childs well being and they should act on it and investigate. You don't need proof for them to do so! They are the ones that are going to find out if there is proof. Which could really...

yes, that was my question. Thank you. I didn't really know how that worked. Interesting.

You're seriously going to cry over someone useing "u" instead of you? Come on now that's just petty. How bout we focus on the true reason people are here and thats for advice. Not spelling lessons.
