It's more her business as her daughter than it is the other two who were stepchildren.

Corporal punishment in the home is only allowed as long as it's "reasonable" and doesn't leave any marks. The fact that she has bruises from the restraint - it's going to be seen as abuse. Also spanking is not necessary and is a ridiculous form of "punishment." There is absolutely everything...

The spanking and restraining wasn't the best idea. I'll tell you if anyone, even my parents, tried to spank me when I was 14 I would have fought back. Thankfully my parents didn't have to resort to any form of striking us to teach any sort of discipline. The fact is that she does have bruises...

So - nothing has changed with where the child lives. The child still lives with mom. Dad still has visitation. The only thing that changed is now there's joint custody? Joint physical or joint legal? I don't see what the issue is if the only thing that changed is now joint custody. Are you...

Unless you're an emancipated minor (which you don't seem to be) yes your parents can say you aren't allowed to see specific people, friends, etc. Until you're 18 or emancipated in some other way, your parents get to make decisions for you. Now can they stop you from sneaking around to see...

Well obviously they did take your kid so can they? Yes they did as it happened. I know CPS can be corrupt but they had to have told you something about why the child was removed. Do you not have a caseworker assigned that you can talk to? I'm really confused honestly. Who are you in this? The...

Ok and? Do you know how traumatic pregnancy can be - let alone what can happen after a C-section? I wouldn't wish a C-section on anyone from what I've heard about them. My best friend had one for her third kid (who she had 2 months early due to preeclampsia) and she said she would have rather...

You do realize that there are people who can get, say, PTSD without deploying right? For example...it's post traumatic stress disorder. Meaning someone can get PTSD from any kind of trauma. Not just combat. Also there are plenty of people who get hurt seriously in just one term - I know that...

I honestly don't care. I didn't see other posts before I posted my response yesterday. And I don't really care now. So...yeah.

Yes your sister can stop you from seeing her children. 100%. You have no legal standing to demand to see her children.

"Birth parents, adoptive parents, and the adopted child are all able to file a petition to reverse an adoption. If the birth parents wish to restore their parental rights, they may file a petition. However, this is generally the most difficult type of adoption reversal, and may actually be...

If you broke up with her in Dec 2020 and she had a baby in Nov 2021 - how would it ever have been your kid? If she'd gotten pregnant the last time she was with you Dec or prior, she'd have had the child Sept or prior. Pregnancy is average 9 months so...nine months from Dec 2020 is definitely not...

What are you asking about? I don't even know what the issue is. What were you scared of? That it was your kid? I don't know what the timeline really is - you haven't talked to her sine Dec 2020 but you broke up with her Nov 2021? Or is it you hadn't talked to her since Dec 2020 and then heard in...

Idk how the court "made" you guys get married. That makes no sense at all you had to be married to be around his other kids. No one sees their custody order but them so no one will think you're abusive. It's not like everyone sees it. He wasn't made to agree to anything. He chose not to...

Was the title in the vehicle or did you transfer the title to him? If he doesn't have the title transferred to him or have the title - then he doesn't own it. I sold my dad my car and I signed the title over to him - and he did pay me once he got his tax return (I can actually trust my dad and...

Why did you just give him your car keys? You can't trust anyone - that's obvious now. I feel like they could charge the guy with unauthorized use of a vehicle. My ex husband took my car without permission before and I was told since I know who took it, it wasn't stolen. It was "unauthorized...

As much as CPS is corrupt and they don't always remove kids who need to be - I find it hard to believe that if you provided anyone with evidence of abuse that they just ignored it and listened to the mom. Small claims court is a different issue all together. Look I've been a stepparent. It's...

If you have proof she's abusing any kids why haven't you reported it?

Legally you are a stranger. Legally you have no rights to the stepchildren which they aren't even your stepchildren anymore if you're divorced. That's just the way it is. Either abide by the court order or you're gonna just make things worse. Worry about your children and anything you have...

This is why you never sign anything...but sure she could take you to small claims court. There's a low burden of proof there and no attorneys are utilized. Will she win? No one knows. You should probably find an attorney in your area - ones that offer free consultations - on advice. Unless you...
