    Bashed the judge, what now?

    Is this for real or a troll post? If anyone is "painfully stupid" it's you. Everything you said has completely set yourself up for failure. It seems like that "radical" judge could see who you really are and that is why you have the visitation you have and no custody. You know the consequences...

    You can't delete it - only admins can delete threads. He doesn't have to use any of his visitation time - but when he wants it you have to give it to him. So you better hope he just stops all together and after six months of no contact, no child support , etc you can try filing abandonment...

    Need help to force supervised visitation on abusive father

    Have you looked? Some do free consultations. And some may work with a person if you find the right one who feels sorry for your daughter. You have to just keep asking. My divorce cost me $1500. Relocating with my daughter cost $3200. My divorce lawyer was working from home at the time and really...

    Need help to force supervised visitation on abusive father

    "Yes child services are involved but in over 3 weeks nothing is being done." That's what she posted in her OP.

    Move away

    There is no guarantee he will get sole custody. No one can guarantee that. He's just trying to scare you. However, in the US parenting has a low, low threshold. Him not having a job or a house wouldn't prevent him from getting custody nor his drug use. Nor him having multiple children with...

    Move away

    If he did an acknowledgment of paternity and that's the state law where you live - he may have paternity established which then gives him rights. BUT there's no custody order. You need to talk to a lawyer.

    Move away

    If he is an unmarried male and has not established his rights to your children with him then he has no paternity. He has no rights. HE doesn't give you permission. You need to talk to a lawyer. You could maybe just take her and go back to Russia and he'll have a hell of a time getting her but I...

    Emancipation/marriage

    That's good to know on the new law - because a the Davidson County court page about marriage licenses still states that in TN you can get married at 16 with guardian or parent permission. But seems to be not the case.

    Emancipation/marriage

    No judge told you that. If he or she did they were wrong. She will not get emancipated because it doesn't sound like she's self sufficent and on her own. Getting pregnant as a teen does not emancipate you. ALSO - in TN one parent has to be there with the minor, sign an affidavit approving them...

    Emancipation/marriage

    Lol no man. No. Just no. Her mother is not going to be declared unfit and even IF she were - the minor would go into state custody. And she still wouldn't be allowed to marry you. There are no options. None. The only option YOU have is to just stay away until that girl is 18 years old. If you...

    Emancipation/marriage

    If you're the 18 year old and you got her pregnant you could be charged with statutory rape - the age of consent in TN is 18. So you or your "friend" should just stay away from this teen. If she needs consent from one parent to get married and neither parent is willing to give it - then guess...

    You just need to find a lawyer who will help you and can help - and will work with you on payment. It might take talking to several lawyers. There are a few out there who have some empathy. It sounds like you've used all resources available and sometimes the system fails. Sometimes people in...

    It won't do shit to report it now and they probably won't investigate it. I called the police one day after my ex assaulted me the first time. One day. When I went to talk to the female police officer who took my call she assured me they would have him in jail by the weekend. Nope. They sent two...

    That's weird he said all they need for paternity is a signed birth certificate because that's not on the Illinois. gov website about paternity. You would not be charged with kidnapping if you refused his court ordered visitation that would be contempt of the court order. Who are these people...

    17 and pregnant

    You can't do anything. She can't do anything until she's 18. Her being pregnant means she can make decisions about her pregnancy and the child if born. But that's about it and you can't make decisions about anything.

    I read through as much as I could but that's really long and a lot of information isn't necessary. So what is the actual custody arrangement right now? You said the original one that gave him primary custody the judge threw out. Who has custody - legal and/or physical? Is it joint? Is it sole...

    Do I have to comply with CPS due to false allegations if the child is not in my home

    File a complaint and don't do anything and don't talk to that caseworker anymore and tell your grandmother not to answer the door for them either unless there's a court order.

    Burglary, Arson, Home Invasion Friend got a car loan. Lost just job. She's avoiding turning the car in.

    You can't do anything. You can't "knock" sense into her either. Best to just step away from this clusterf* and let her wear her big girl pants.

    Paying child support to the mother but she never reported it to the agency in order to get assistanc

    Tell your husband to get a lawyer. That's the only way anything changes and only he can do it - you're legally a stranger. I was a stepmom - I've been there. I drove 4 1/2 hours one way to see the other two kids before we moved closer. And stayed in hotels because he didn't want to stay with...
