    Step children and visitation

    Unlikely. Do you not want them to see him? How long were they living in your home with him?

    split custody

    Sure, it's possible. You've left out too much for anyone to venture a guess as to how likely it is in your case.

    Teen deciding where to Live

    Because she gave up parental rights in the adoption, your sister now has the same relationship to the boy as any other non-parent and as such would have no special rights to visit other than what the child's legal mother permitted. There is no custody or visitation issue here, the child lives...

    Decree Modification And Bankruptcy

    That sounds odd. I'd call an attorney. Many will provide a brief free consult to ask your question. Bankruptsy law is complicated, was your advisor an attorney?

    Mediation

    Does he give you notice if he's cancelling? If so, how much? Why is he cancelling? You might want to try writing in an agreement to your parenting plan that he'll give certain notice and owe certain extra babysitting costs and lost wages if he cancels. I'd go with whatever mediator he...

    am just depressed not suicidal

    We don't know the whole story, but it sounds like your ex doesn't trust you to be safe around your son. Have you talked with your ex about what he would need to see to be able to reestablish that trust? Most ex's don't mean to be vindictive when they restrict access based on allegations of drug...

    What I meant was, is there an order of support in place for the man listed on the child's birth certificate?

    i need help asap!

    If the baby is yours, she probably can. Is the other man paying support up to now? She won't be able to get support unless you agree the child is yours or until a DNA test proves it.

    Teen deciding where to Live

    No, minors don't have a right to say where they live. You'd have to petition for adoption. I don't know how long ago your mom adopted the boy, but she would have had to have a huge change in circumstances to go from being approved for adoption (a rigorous process) to being found so impaired that...

    Is our visitation order still valid?

    You can likely go to court to request a temporary order (parenting schedule) while this is being sorted out, if you feel your ex is unreasonably withholding parenting time from you. If you and your ex have a different interpretation on the old order and cannot agree, mediation, arbitration...

    Ex-husband walks in gray area of restraining order

    It seems that if the police were involved to sort out whether the school staff are actually disclosing information to your ex or if he was just saying they were, the staff would be a lot more reluctant to provide him with information. It also seems as if at least once you were accused of...

    Considerations in assuming custody, or other options needed please

    I appreciate your perspective. She turns 18 in March, him in May. How old was your daughter? If you knew me, you'd know that the last thing I'd ever imagine I'd do was to invite my son's teenage GF in to live with us. It will only be until she's 18, then I'll help find her a room to rent with...

    Ex-wife threatening increase in CS

    I don't think an order for child support "can never be modified", even if both parents agree at the time. Typically, once a significant change in circumstances occurs or a certain amount of time has passed (varies by state), support can be revisited by either parent. If I read right, you're...

    Considerations in assuming custody, or other options needed please

    Me: divorced, self-employed, work-at-home parent of 17-year-old son. He has a 17-year-old girlfriend who lives with her divorced welfare mother and two younger teenage siblings. Girl’s dad is in California and is not involved with this yet. Months ago, I offered to provide girl with place to...
