  <title>Verbal Attacks on Drop off/Pick up</title>
  <link>http://www.elprime.com/tracker/subscribe.htm?477689.001</link>

  <description>What can I do if step mom verbally attacks me in front of kids on drop off pick up?
 

This is unfortunatly not the first time this has happened.
 

In the past I asked that Dad only be present.  Once again though she decided it was better to yell and scream at me in front of my kids, and the kicker is she was telling me that I should not let my daughter wear a tank top to her house because it is not modest.    
 

I can deal with her ranting, but I don't think it is right for my kids to hear their step mom screaming at me (their mom).  It drives a bigger wedge between my kids and their dad.
 

If dad is unwilling to keep his wife out of the mix (and I will try to talk to him again) is there anything legally I can do to keep her away from drop off and pick up?  And to answer the next question that will be asked, the parenting plan says nothing about who can pick up or drop off.

  <title>State vs. Military</title>

  <description>What jurisdiction (or maybe I'm using the wrong word) does AZ have over the military overseas?
 

The father acknowledged paternity which is a legal document in AZ.  The military is seeming to not acknowledge this document even though in Chapter 15 it states that with a non married couple this is acceptable.  They are now telling me we need to do a DNA test.
 

He is overseas for a few more months and then once he's back to the states CSE (Child support enforcement) will be taking over and as far as they are concerned, I have all the documents needed.
 

Is there anything, legally, that can be done to override this military b.s.?

  <category>Child Custody &amp; Visitation</category>
  <description>This started Tuesday night July 28th at 9:30 arizona time which is 12:30am Massachusetts time:

Because my daughter doesn't want to call her mother everyday and every night among other things:
 

Well her mother called her screaming over a laptop, then told Sam to f*** herself. Then told her to stay here if that is what she wants so Sam said fine and hung up. She started crying and shaking uncontrollably. gail called back and I took the phone and gail said f*** you Ron keep her.

then Rach called Gail trying to diffuse the crap and she started with her, saying Sam is a f***ing b**** keep her. Saying Sam ruined her life and sam is a manipulative little b**** who ruined her life again. At that point Rach told Gail calm down and think on what you are saying. Well she started bawling and said keep her I dont want her. So Rach again told her to calm down again and Rach would talk to her later.

I held Sam while she bawled, and we decided Sam is staying. enough is enough.

She does this to sam on a monthly almost weekly basis.
 

We got up Wednesday for a doctor's appt and headed to the court house to start proceedings then Gail texted and told Sam to stay here. this is what she said:
 

FWD: Iwill honor wishes 2 stay w poppi. love u baby 4 ever. i am sorry i made u cry. love u 4 ever. i am glad u found peace. later... Read More
 

she sent sam with her birth certificate and social security card so we got sams id card for az.
 

we are enrolling her in school and got her immunizations records already.
 

gail called wedneday night saying that she is not gonna fight us, but her boyfriend started texting Me threatening ME.
 

Anyway I dont feel it needs to go to court like her boyfriend is threatening cause things like this happen alot and usually it can be done without courts and all that crap and Sam will be 16 in november.
 

she refuses to get on the plane to go back and I already calmly said nO she is staying here.
 

Anyway i am staying level headed and not getting upset.
 

I want what is best for Sam and that is to be here in a loving home where she can be a kid.... Read More
 

Saturday morning August 1st:

Now to make matters worse she texts me and Sam and says she has now decided Samantha is to come home on the 7th. She is an alcoholic, abusive, locks herself in her room all day and doesn't pay any mind to Sam at all.
 

I have already contacted the police on the matter and with sam's age well i was told Sam will have a say.
 

Sam is ready to be open and honest with how things are in the home she has been living in and it is not good for her to go back.
 

the constant fighting, drama, alcoholism, being told she is at fault for ruining her mothers life, to go live with me *which is what she wants anyway*, the screaming.
 
 

so do I have a leg to stand on is what i am asking here. 

i want what is best for my daughter
 

my daughter wrote a blog that is really sad and upsetting about it all.

  <title>Multiple questions child custody AZ</title>
  <link>http://www.elprime.com/tracker/subscribe.htm?477575.001</link>

  <category>Child Custody &amp; Visitation</category>
  <description>I probably could ask 20 questions but will keep it brief for now. I believe I just need to find a lawyer that will take payments. But for now will ask a couple of questions:
 

I filed for divorce recently asking for sole custody of both of my children ages 17 and 11. My children do not want to visit their father over night for many reasons, the main one being the sleeping arrangement. He puts my 11 year old son in a twin bed and has my daughter sleep on an air mattress with him at his mother's home. At home they have their own bedrooms. I've suggested multiple times he put my daughter in the twin and the boys sleep in the family room but he doesn't listen. Can I ask, and will the judge listen, for him to provide a better arrangement for the children. He is supposed to move in with his cousin who is a drug addict. I asked him how many bedrooms the home has but he refuses to tell me.
 

Also, he pays me child support every weekend. However, on his visits he often invites the children out to eat and see a movie. He then reduces the amount of money he gives me subtracting the cost of food and movie. Do I really have to pay for him to be a father?

  <title>Modification of Child Custody without Notice Questions!</title>
  <link>http://www.elprime.com/tracker/subscribe.htm?477556.001</link>

  <description>Arizona!
 

I just received word that my ex-wife has filed a Motion for Post-Decree Temporary order without notice for Modification of Child Custody, we currently have split custody with alternating weeks. She is so hard to communicate with and so quick to yell and argue that we don't always get to communicate what is needed (such as school decisions). She is now saying she has grounds for this motion due to my &quot;unwillingness&quot; to communicate!
 

What should I know about this motion and how is a non notice possible .. I don't even have an address(edit: for the court)! Do I show up if I can find it and what should I expect to happen?
 

Thanks!

-Chris

  <description>I have been married for over 21 yrs.  My husband and I are in the process of adopting my 2 yr granddaughter.  I and the maternal grandma and he is the step grandpa.  We are almost done with adoption, but I am interested to know what happens if I file for divorce and move to another state with my granddaughter?  What would be the process and how can I make this happen if he is legally showing on the adoption documents?  Will he be able to have legal rights, can I get him removed as the adoptive father at time of divorce? 
 

No the adoption agency does not know.  It has taken so long to finally get close to the end of this adoption, I was not sure if I should say anything or not to the agency?  Rightfully I feel he shouldn't even have to rights to this child in the future.  

Even though he's not the blood relative but will be the adoptive parent, I will still need to get permission to remove my own grandchild?  So your saying once we both adopt he will have all rights just like if we had conceived the child ourselves?

  <description>What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? ArizonaIf a mother basically ignores her child age 7, or, if not ignoring him, is taking him to tatoo parlors, actually ridiculed him into helping with the ink gun to help &quot;write&quot; his name on her leg; her only job is working 3 nites a week as a stripper, has actually taken him to the strip club on 2 or 3 occassions.  She doesn't treat him as a child at all, says they are &quot;good buddies.  She is self centered, and will only do something for him if it benefits her. She has numerous police reports because of domestic violence with differant partners of hers, and now has instructed him that he is never to call 911, because she told him that &quot;if you do, mommy might go to jail, and it would be all your fault.&quot;  In Arizona, is this considered an unfit mother? And who do we call too get this child out of this situation?

  <title>Settlement request should I take it?</title>
  <link>http://www.elprime.com/tracker/subscribe.htm?477448.001</link>

  <category>Child Support</category>
  <description>Ok so I filed that my ex wasn't paying child support or medical expenses.
 

His lawyer called me and wanted to settle stating I had two options.
 

I have done this on my own and he has a very high profile lawyer.
 

Our court date is mid august.
 

He offered to pay in full on Sept 1.
 

I want some way of making sure that this happened.
 

After talking to his lawyer I think that I have found a way to ensure that this happens.
 

He said that I can request a extension of the court date based on a settlement of Sept 1st then if the extension is after that date then we can hash it out if he does not pay.
 

The other choice is to write it up, cancel the court date and if he does not pay file contempt.  
 

I just wondered what is the best and safest way to deal with this.  I want him to be held accountable nothing more.  If the trial comes and he just has to pay 20 a month so be it, but the point is to support his children.
 

Any advice welcome.

  <title>Babysitter of choice?</title>
  <link>http://www.elprime.com/tracker/subscribe.htm?477348.001</link>

  <description>Dad has 3 kids for six weeks of the summer ending this Sun night.  Dad called me up and said the kids missed me and they wanted to spend the day with me.  
 

I kept kids until 6pm when I assumed he would then be home from work.  Kids tell me that their dad is working and they don't want to go home until he is there.
 

I explain to kids that this is his time and we agreed on this end of story.  If they were upset then they needed to speak with their dad but we had agreed on this ahead of time.
 

When I drop them off only step mom is home and this is usually the case.  
 

Parenting plan states when one parent is not available the other shall be the babysitter of choice.  When I bring this up with dad he states that his wife does not count and it is his time and he will do what he wants.  I have tried to reason with him and we have been though years of counceling as well.  Nothing anyone says changes his mind on this.
 

I always use him as sitter for the kids if I am not home, but I am lucky to be there everyday due to my work schedule and rarely need it.  He on the other hand works full time and goes to school part time.  He is almost never home and the kids know that I am.  They ask to come to my house while he is working and they are told no by dad and step mom.  (on a side note it is dad that tells me that he has told them no and not my children).
 

I have talked to lawyers and many others stating that babysitter of choice is difficult to enforce, but it seems silly to have it in a plan if you can't enforce it.
 

What is the best way to deal with this without causing massive problems.

  <category>Child Custody &amp; Visitation</category>
  <description>I recently found out that I have a 15yr old son. I knew he existed and tried for many years to find out if he was my son. His mother came to me only after the alleged father was going to tell my son that the man he has known as his dad is not his father. 
 

We took a do it yourself dna test and confirmed paternity. I now want to get custodial rights. She is now coming back at me telling me that I get no say in how he is educated, or have any say in his overall well being.
 

My question is: What will I be financially responsible for prior to establishment of paternity? Taking into consideration that I tried to find out but was stone walled by his mother. Want to do the right thing but dont want to go bankrupt in the process.

  <title>Am I battling the ex or the new wife?</title>
  <link>http://www.elprime.com/tracker/subscribe.htm?476244.001</link>

  <description>I have just start going through legal issues with my ex.  He threatened that if I did not have papers drawn up for joint custody he would call CPS on neglect against my daughter.  Story number 1 for neglect, I'm on the computer all the time.  Story number 2 that he told me, she was in a pull up (she just turned 5).  I was more or less given 24 hours to do so on a Sunday.  He turned right around after getting off the phone with me and called CPS (three weeks into his visitation with her).  I proceeded to find a lawyer who advised that our original decree did not have set visitation and that was the only thing that needed to be done.  The joint custody seemed far fetched considering my ex lives in AZ and I live in TX.  Due to his threat I felt it necessary to hire a lawyer to protect my oldest and my two younger children I have now with my husband.  

With all this going on I have barely spoke to my ex on the matter.  I am always speaking with his wife.  His wife controls everything that goes on in their life.  She has picked up and dropped off my daughter for visitation without my ex.  She has called to speak with my daughter without my ex around.  I strongly feel that this legal ordeal is her doing as well.  She pretty much tells my ex what to say and do and he does.  

My husband now has kept his mouth shut on everything except for what involved our two children.  He knows that he is only the step-parent and has NO legal say in the matter involving my oldest.  

I received papers today and on the cover letter explaining to my lawyer what they contained at the bottom was my ex's and his wife's name.  Throughout the actual legal document my ex's name is the only name mentioned besides my own.  

My question is, does the ex's new wife have any say whatsoever in this ordeal?  Can she legally talk to their lawyer about anything involving this?  If the lawyer does speak with her, does that play in my favor?  I have had nothing but problems left and right since my ex has married her.   

There is more to this story, but that is a general overall synopsis of it for now.

  <description>What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? AZ
 

This is a set of people from various states in India who came to work at a 

resort in AZ and quickly banded together. However for some reason, in a 

pre-meditated way the group beat up one of their own brutally, and gang raped him

in between bouts of drinking and dragged him to his room.

Another problem is that he is slated to  return to India tomorrow for good. Should he sue 

his former colleges, what options does he have?
 

Thanks for any helpful info, in advance.

  <description>I'm the mother, I'm in Washington state. The kids live with my ex husband who is in the military in Wyoming but we got divorced while we were all living in Arizona.
 

My ex husband has legal and physical custody of our children ( ages 4 and 8) and I was given supervised visitation at my expense with the children because of my mental illness at the time and my drug abuse at the time...I am now nearly a year clean off all drugs, stable on my meds, and in college full time. 
 

 I get to see the boys twice a year, for about 3 days at a time, while they stay at my mother's house-summer and christmas break.  I miss my kids and I want another chance at being a mom.  
 

Is it too late?  Is there something I can do to prove I am fit now to take my kids for the summers or something?  We do not have a parenting plan and I don't know where to begin-Washington, Wyoming, Arizona...I am low income, on state assistance and I do not have money for a lawyer. 
 

 How do I get a parenting plan in order with mandatory visitation rights even if we live in different states?
 

Please help-

  <description>I have decided to leave my husband after spending another few hours as his punching bag. I currently live in CT. I have no family or support here and have decided to move with three of my children to AZ where we can stay with my mother until I find a job and a place to live. I have tried to discuss this with my husband rationally but he refuses. He has given me permission to leave but only if I leave without the kids. He claims that if I attempt to take the kids away he will call the police and have me arrested. Can he do this? I have recently lost my job and don't have anywhere else to turn. He refuses to help me financially and I have no means to move out on my own near him.  My only way to get away is to get in my car and drive to AZ.  What can I do?

  <description>7 years ago my X went after me for child support through the arizona courts I did a dna paternity test wich was a 0% , I am not the father. Now the state of washington is coming after me for the same child I sent them the paperwork from 7 years ago dealing with az and they want me to take another paterinty test , Should I be nice and cooperate or what happens if I refuse?
