My step daughter is saying that she gets to stay on until she is 26, which doesn't make sense. I know the option is available, but nowhere have I seen where parents had to keep insurance on an adult child. My husband or I have signed no papers saying to keep her on the insurance, so we are at a...

My insurance company has not dropped my adult child, even though I filled out the paperwork during open enrollment. I'm calling tomorrow, but wanted to know some reasons why they won't drop her. She was emancipated, and no where in the paperwork did it say I would be providing insurance for her...

I did my best to explain the situation at the police station. The lawyers and police are figuring out how to file charges without costing us our home. We are enjoying peace, and my husband and I will be going to see her once a month for family therapy.

The officer she hit had to get a few stitches, so I'm sure that will be a legal adventure. She is on lockdown in the mental facility, and we won't be able to see her for a few days. Her brother and my own children seem to have bonded over this, so our home life is easier with everyone pitching...

She crossed a county over into Texas and is being held at a hospital. I'm headed to sign her in at a psych hospital in Little Rock. She thought that crossing state lines would free her of being summoned. The police caught her, and she fought them. What a mess... Thank you all.

She was summoned to appear with us this morning, but she didn't show up. The judge is overturning the emancipation, so that we can get her the help she needs. She isn't at school, and we can't find her at all. The new judge suggested a psych hospital, so I am looking for a reputable location...

Her other grandma knows the judge(which we just discovered). We meet with another judge in a few hours, who looked the papers over via our lawyer yesterday. The new judge meeting with us immediately seems to be a good sign that things will be fixed legally.

She went to his chamber's later in the day to speak with him alone, but he granted the emancipation. The paperwork we received informed of us of child support and insurance, which was not said to us directly. We never agreed nor said that we would do these things. We were never directly told of...

Not taken as rude, I was just more or less warning other parents and guardians of my legal mess bc nowhere online did I find that any of this could happen.

The lawyer has filed for a judge change. What else can we do to protect ourselves? The papers clearly state emancipation, separate adult entity...

Oh...she has told us that she is applying for HUD & foodstamps. It makes me worried that other kids her age and younger will pull this crap. I'm worried about the other cases this judge has heard and ruled upon. I'm worried how she will adjust to reality as an adult.

No. A judge emancipated a 17 year old, she had been previously inpatient, she refused therapy and meds, she skipped school, and her room was left by her trashed. She gets to get child support, while using her father's insurance...leaving him responsible for copays from everything. She moved in...

It was a full emancipation. She moved in with her boyfriend. Our lawyer is challenging the judgement in a different county (bc he said neither support or insurance has ever been awarded in the rare instance that an emancipation has been awarded ). Our lawyer is actually baffled by the situation.

The judge awarded her the emancipation, she gets to keep child support, and she will be on her father's insurance. Despite what the law says, she threw a fit and got her way. I'm at a complete loss.

My step-daughter is taking us to court in about 2 weeks. Her counsellors helped her to file the papers. Our lawyer says she has no chance, but she is convinced she has already won. We won't know her exact reason until the court date. She is back home and continuing her same unstable behavior. I...

I've been inpatient, so I have an aversion. Her father and I have put in for a day off Friday to go check her in. She doesn't know yet.

I do feel sorry for her, but she creates chaos for entertainment. She has no respect for anyone, including herself. I'm the only one not on board for putting her inpatient, she knows that, and she still pushes.

She laughed when confronted in therapy about trying to claim abuse in our home. The look on her face was scary. My husband says that's not his baby. The state couldn't track them down, we exhausted all our resources to find those kids...then they refuse to be helped, they refuse to follow a few...

We are already in counseling, the mother kept the kids from him, she moved constantl between three states, and as soon as we caught her...we started fighting for custody, then the mom was arrested. She is acting like her mom. Her mom allowed the boyfriend to travel with them and sleep in the...

Thank you all.
