They can if they want. Parents do a lot of things they shouldn't do and this is one of them. Most likely will this person not listen to you but it is important you try or someone close to them because they are actually not hurting you, they are hurting their own children. Just remember that it doesn't matter in the long run what they say because kids grow up and see the real you and will realize that the parents is lying. That will make them think less of them and most likely will they not do the same if they end up in the same situation. So tell him/her that. Your kids knows you and make sure they know they can ask you anything so you can set things straight. Just say that "daddy is angry with mommy but mommy does not want to fight". Point out that people say many hurtful things, kids too, when angry/disappointed/hurt etc. Kids knows this. They themselves will say "I hate you" but doesn't actually mean it. So take the higher road and let the other parent dwell in their misery and focus on having a open relationship with your kids and explain their parents behavior and that you don't want to fight, just move on. They will probably say the same to their other parent soon. You will get the payoff in the future when they see him/her for what they are.
AnswerParental alienation is an unfortunate result of adults who cannot get over their high conflict divorce and move on. They use their children to hurt the other parent. It is committed by impoverished adults with immature, narcissistic personalities. These parents are toxic and can ruin a child's relationship with both parents. They try to manipulate the child by interfering with the child's loving relationship with the other parent. Sometimes they succeed. Sometimes they fail and ruin their own relationship with the child. It is done by both custodial and non-custodial parents.
This is a syndrome that is recognized by the family courts. A parent who sees signs their child is being manipulated towards alienation to any significant degree should discuss the matter with the attorney who represented them in the divorce or with an attorney who specializes in custody issues. If that's not possible then they should visit the family court of jurisdiction and ask to speak with an advocate. Parental alienation is extremely detrimental to the children and can have extremely negative long term results. Children should never be used as pawns.
If the problem is serious the court can and will sanction the offender by modifying the visitation agreement. See the related link for more information

This would depend on who is deciding it is for the best and what some of the circumstances are in the situation; Ex are you married, custodial parent non custodial are children involved. If your trying to kidnap someone it;s illegal so that would not be advisable
Can a noncustodial parent refuse to give the custodial parent the child back to avoid paying 48 thousand dollars back child support and then try to file for support from custodial parent?
No, and no can he, so there must be a greater issue related here as to the safety of the children. As for being in arrears, in this economy that comes as no shock as men do not know there is free legal help to avoid or reduce arrears from the government. That is what I teach them.
Is the non-custodial parent required to add children to their insurance if custodial parent losses their job?
Only if the court mandates it. It would be a good idea.
Will the presence of a new boyfriend affect a custodial case?
If by "affect" it is meant will such a situation harm the case of the biological mother pertaining to custodial issues, the answer is a "maybe". Judges are concerned with the welfare of the child/children and nothing else. If the "new boyfriend" is a live-in then it could be a bearing on how the judge will rule, usually dependent upon the character and/or living environment. The majority of judges try to be fair when it pertains to such a situation, but it is not unheard of to get a biased judge who favors traditional values such as marriage.
Can a custodial parent call children and text them obsessively during their visitation with their non custodial parent?
This could be considered interference and abusive, but the issue will need to be raised with the courts.
Does the custodial parent have the right to know where the child is when the non custodial parent has the child?
As long as the NCP - and CP for that matter - abides by the court order, and provides phone access, then the other parent doesn't need the address of every place the child will be visiting. The permanent residence, however, needs to be known.
In Michigan can the noncustodial parent take the children out of state on vacation without the custodial parent's permission?

What can noncustodial parent do when custodial parent sleeps with boyfriend in front of the children during pending divorce?
Nothing. Not very helpful or necessarily true.
If a custodial parent is incarcerated does the noncustodial parent have the right to go and take custody of the minor children?
Whether or not the noncustodial parent has the right to take custody of the minor children if the custodial parent is incarcerated depends on the specific circumstances and any existing court order or custody agreement. In general, it is recommended for the noncustodial parent to consult with a family law attorney and go through the appropriate legal channels to modify or establish custody arrangements during the custodial parent's incarceration.
Does the noncustodial parent have to bring back the children to the custodial parents after a visit?
Yes, unless there are other arrangements mentioned in the visitation order. The non-custodial parent shouldn't expect the custodial parent to do the transporting. Taking your own parental responsibilities seriously is character building.
Can the custodial parent stop child support because the father is helping with children?
The situation regarding child support MUST be revisited if the circumstances of the custodial parent change.
If the noncustodial parent doesn't feed kids or have electricity do yo have to send the children over to their house?
Report that person to Children and Family services and look for legal help to modify your custody agreement and get the non-custodial parent help or in parentingclasses.
What are the rights of the noncustodial parent when the custodial parent has left the children with her family for 2 years?
The same as they would be if she hadn't. The situation you describe does not automatically confer any particular rights upon the non-custodial parent. The non-custodial parent could take this information to court in an effort to get the custody orders modified; the court will take this and other factors into account. The bottom line is: the custody orders are the governing documents here. They represent the court's decision based on the initial set of circumstances. If the situation has changed, then you have the right to attempt to have the orders modified, but until they are modified, they still stand.
If a noncustodial parent does not feed children or have electricity must the custodial parent send the children over there?
If it is really that bad I would get a call into the department of social services or family services and report the parent. You need an lawyer to make sure the kids aren't going there. Get the ball rolling tomorrow.
Can a noncustodial parent get custody of 17 year old child if custodial parent is mentally and verbally abusing child.?
Yes. Judges change custody of children all the time. It is good to have some data or other witnesses to back up your claims but it happens. A 17 year old child is usually old enough simply to move out of an abusive situation and into a different situation without any judge's permission. The problem is usually with child support payments.
Can a custodial parent prevent the noncustodial parent from talking to their children on the phone?
Maybe, if the absent parent does not share custody in any manner and there is not a visitation order in place, a custodial parent can take whatever action he or she chooses in regards to a minor child. However, courts do not look favorably upon any parent who does not allow the other parent to have a relationship with his or her minor child/children unless there is substantiated reasons (child abuse, endangerment, etc.) for the action. A parent who is being denied access to his or her child/children can file suit for visitation and/or custodial rights if they so choose.
Is there a statute of limitations on getting back child support for children whom are adults now?
Barring any changes in Child Support law, there is no Statute of Limitations on arrears. This means that the noncustodial parent will never be free of accumulated arrears plus interest accrued until the full amount has been paid either to the custodial parent or the custodial parent's estate, if they have died.
