ACS Archives/ was re How to stop him?
"Chris" wrote "Gini" wrote "DB" wrote .............. Not interested in the archive, more in the future and keeping up with current events. == Well, I was replying to Dale but, the info in the archives references family law and legal procedure for many jurisdictions and remains unchanged. It also includes information on Social Security benefits relating to SSI, SSD, dependents and survivors and how SS affects child support awards. There is also information on common law marriage and how child support applies in those cases and child support during incarceration in certain jurisdictions. There is also lots of information on post-minority support in many jurisdictions and what states consider subsequent children in their child support guidelines and reduce support for parenting time and extended summer parenting. For instance, in some states, CS can be reduced by half for "visits" exceding one month. Of course, there's more than ten years of postings resulting in a veritable encyclopedia of information and personal experiences in family law and court. The again, perhaps you already know all that stuff. In that case, I'm sure others will find benefit in it. There is more wisdom in one post here than the ENTIRE "child support" industry. == Precisely. TONS of information that anyone (except DB, of course) will appreciate. However, the information should not be construed as legal advice but rather as legal information/starting place on which to build a case and save time on atty consultations. If you have a consultation and already have some basics, the time/money can be better spent on specifics for a particular case. |

How to stop him?
They should have named this group alt.mom.is.always.wrong! All you
people that are attacking me seem to think that my daughters sperm donor is some kind of knight in shining armor! I will not develop a relationship with this asshole even though I think he wants that. It's bad enough that I have to put up with him coming over and pretend that I like him for my daughters sake. He is NOT a dad. He is just doing this to get revenge for me filing for child support. He is nothing more than an overgrown playmate for my daughter. I am not going to stand by while he drags her out of the house without fighting him every way I can. It's not like she is a normal child. She has emotional problems that will be made much worse if he is allowed to do this. I can see that I'm getting no help or understanding in this group. I'm done.

You are obviously damaging this child and haven't got a clue. Your entire interest is *you,* not the child. Her father has a real chance of gaining custody. She may have far fewer "emotional problems" with you out of the picture. |

It is legal and the laws are setup to do as she pleases! Are you not being too harsh? ;-) |

How to stop him?
Janet, I can tell you as a "custodial father" of three children whose mother
rarely ever comes around (maybe once every 5 to 8 months for a few hours) this is NOT easy. The court went so far as to tell me that my SEVENTEEN year old has to go with her mother for a visitation if her mother SO wishes on her set day (1st and 3rd sunday of each mother from 1pm to 5pm) But I am upset at the fact that they told me I could be held in contempt if I dont force her to go, yet if I force her to go my child (if you can call her that at 17 in michigan) can call the police because its "kidnapping" at that age..lol At 17 they can legally move out on their own (in michigan) and the parents cant stop them, so HOW can I force her to visit her mother when I cant even legally keep her from moving out. Some times the courts make NO sence. But - back to your situation - your daughter is young and will adjust question is will you? And if he starts visitation what is the likelyhood he will continue or will he just drop out of her life again causing more harm.. that is the point I would bring up and request 6 months of "supervised visitation" as much as 2 times a week so she can get to know him, this will also give you time to see if he can actually stick to showing up for the visits. ( and get it to be a requirment that if he fails to show up for at least 75% of all the visits that the supervised visitation continue another 6 months) (if the judge or FOC wont go 6 months then request 3 or 4 - but be vigilant about getting frequent but supervised visitation) this will also give him a chance to "screw-up" and lose it all together. Show eagerness to allow them to bond but dont go into court being against her getting to know her father, just request (due to the lack of prior contact) a "phase-in" period to allow them to make a bond before visitation becomes UNsupervised "Janet" wrote in message ... Why would I want to encourage this? As I said before she is having to see a therapist because she is having emotional problems related to change. Any change in her routine sets off a crying fit. It will not help her to be forced to go with someone that she doesn't want to see.I thought they used the best interest of the child to determine these things? Her father was just someone that I had a brief fling with. We didn't really care that much about each other and we both understood that. If he is such a caring father then where was for the first 6 years of her life? He could have found me if he wanted. Now just because I asked for some help with the kid that he is halfway responsible for all of a sudden he wants to act like hes a real dad to her. She doesn't even like him. She got along fine without him all this time and now he shows up disrupting her life. Is that fair to her? Do the courts really think it will be in her best interest to have her being dragged out of the house by someone she doesn't like and just barely knows? That seems like child abuse!

It's going to be up to you to make this easy for her. The judge almost certaily will assign him time with his chld. So you need to start talking about all the wonderful things little girls can do with their fathers. Talk to him, and arrange for the 3 of you to start doing some things together--go out for a hamburger, go see a movie, etc. Laugh with him, talk with him. Let HER see what a nice man he is. (You obviously did more thatn laugh and talk at one point in time, or she wouldn't be here) Let her see the man you cared enough about to create her. YOU have the power to help this happen without trauma. Be a loving mother to your daughter and help her get to know and love her daddy. |
