Can they remove a child from the home for truancy?

Cps called and made threats. The mother left the state to live with a family member because of that two days after the threat was made. Does cps have authority in another state if they cannot find the mother?? Depends on a few additonal factors like was/is she the custodial parent? Is she running from a criminal charge as well? Does she have a prior judgment giving her sole custody? And then ~ which state did she leave?

How do you protect the innocent spouse and the innocent child from a sociopath mother?

Is the sociopath mother on medicine to control her behavior? If not and the sociopath is a danger, then the innocent spouse needs to take legal action to protect himself and the child immediately (contact a lawyer, the county should have some programs to help those who cannot afford one). If the sociopath mother is on medicine, going to counseling and is compliant with her doctor there is not a whole lot you can do. The father will have a better chance in court to get full physical and legal custody.

Your Mother cannot be held accountable for your truancy!! My Step Daughter who is 16 soon to be 17 can quit school if she wants. I live in Michigan and that is what they do here. So you are accountable for your truancy!! When i was 17 my parents were held accountable even when i wasnt living with them and this is in texas. they wont fine you but they can put you on probation or send you to juvy if you dont go by the rules. they give your parents the $500 fine. so watch it im 18 now and theyre still trying to file it on me.

Truancy and child support are two separate issues. You must continue to pay child support, however you can file for custody modification either by seeking custody or increasing custody, thus reducing your child support obligation, if you can prove the mother is not acting in the best interests of the child by enabling his or he truancy.
