I was brought up with a step dad. Hes a very nice man but when i was a kid and out of line he would punish me accordingly.And i believe im a polite decent guy because of it. If your a step parent and taking the role of a guardian for any child of course you should punish when needed. Please don't contribute to Americas Huge population of rude nasty loud kids!!
Only with parental permission. Minors can not choose where to live.
New daddy?
They have to adopt the child, otherwise you should pay.
Yes if the child of the grandparent has traces of it.
It is cruel for the stepfather to hold the grandson for a long period of time as punishment and will frighten then child. It is far better for the child to be told to sit in a corner in a chair or sit at a table for about 15 minutes or, if they are really being a handful send them to their room for a half hour. Holding a child for so long makes them feel trapped and afraid.
video game
they should because the stepfather is the dad not the bio father
I imagine the child is fond of his grandparent. Talk to the police so they can talk to the grandparent and explain the law to them. The grandparent might then change their mind.
child is slow grandparent is slower and parent is the fastest.
The parents are responsible for child support, not the grandparents. If the grandmother has legal custody the child support payments should go directly to her via a court order. All states in the US have child support guidelines, based on income and other factors, that must be used to calculate what the non-custodial parent(s) must pay.It should be noted that if the child lives with her grandparent that grandparent is already contributing to the child's support above and beyond the payments made by the parent(s). Child support payments rarely amount to enough to completely support the child.
If the step-dad has or shares custodial authority, he can prevent the child seeing grandparents for any reason.
Yes. The payments should be turned over to the person who has legal custody. Child support should have been addressed at the time the guardianship was granted to the grandparent. If that was not done, the child's father needs to go to court to have the support order modified so he can pay the grandparent. If that happens you may be required to pay back any money you accepted when the child was not in your custody. You should review the court order that transferred legal guardianship to the grandparent. If you still have questions you should visit the family court and ask to speak with an advocate. You need to avoid future problems that may arise if you spend child support that you are not entitled to receive.
