Custody

You can ask him but not force him. If he is harmful to the child you can bring it to court and the court can take his parental rights away.

The laws regarding visitation rights for grandparents vary from state to state and are often determined on a case-by-case basis.

Briefly, all states require that the grandparents have the burden of proving the visits are in the best interest of the child. Be advised that when the grandparents are trying to wrest control of grandchildren of their deceased child from the surviving parent- that type of situation may not be considered to be in the best interest of the child.

Some states are more permissive including: Arkansas, Connecticut, Hawaii, Idaho, Kentucky, Maryland and NY. Other state are more strict such as Florida, Minnesota and Pennsylvania where the child must have lived with them or they must have had a parent-child relationship with the grand-child. Some state requirements are extremely narrow where the grandparent must prove they took the child to normal activities such as doctors appointments or school and they cared for the child over extended periods.

You need to consult with an attorney in your state who can review your situation and explain your options. You can prepare by reading the information about grandparents rights in Arkansas at the related link.

If the child is being abused at home, I think that they could live somewhere else. I would call child wellfare. The only thing is, if the child is removed from the natural mothers home, I don't know that they would necessarily be put with the family the child wants to be with. Start making phone calls.

If it is your weekend and the mother will not let you pick up your kids, you should take it back to the court. She is in defiance of a court order. Take it up with the judge. Make it her problem, not yours. When she is in the pokey, she might change her mind.

Illegal immigrants do not have rights because they are not citizens of said country. If you are speaking of the United States, for instance, if an illegal alien was to come here, they would have no rights since they lack citizenship and entered illegally--breaking the law. Laws of each land (country) only protect citizens of that country and legal residents who enter and leave or are on a legal path to citizenship of a country.

stuff like stalking- followign and having an obsession with wanting to be with them, constant hounding of a person and not leaving them alone, then of course theres other kinds of harassment, like sexual. which is of course stuff like touching people when they dont wwan tto be- i.e rape.

For mothers this is fairly simple with new child abandonment laws allowing for the leaving of babies at ERs. Even later, they there's little significant problems with turning the children over to the state.

In general, parental rights are terminated either preparatory to an adoption, or after a trial in which it is determined that the parent is unfit. In any case, termination of parental rights does not, in itself, terminate child support.

No. Only a court order can override an existing court order. A verbal agreement will be considered by the court in rendering its decision but the verbal agreement in and of itself does not override the original court order.

There are some hurdles you have to overcome with a verbal agreement. How can you prove there was ever a verbal agreement in place. I had a verbal agreement with my ex regarding custody of our daughter. She the resided to back out of our agreement and denied ever agreeing to anything. Fortunately I had a call recording application that complied with Federal and Texas State Laws (it announces that its recording the conversation at the beginning of the conversation). Since I was able to prove that we had a verbal agreement, the court honored the verbal agreement. So, a verbal agreement may lead to a decision in your favor if you can prove that an actual "valid" verbal contract has been made

Probably because the rules for the section 8 housing program requires you to report the child support payment as a part of your income when it is received.

For income tax purposes on your federal income tax return child support is NOT TAXABLE income that you would report on your 1040 tax form.

One of the fission products of sexual revolution. Normally a female-headed family with no married Father or Husband. In some cases these Single mothers are extremely nonchalant about their abnormal status. I once worked for the Census bureau and had an unusual client. It was a single-parent Mother and her child. They seemed fairly okay so I asked questions about the husband- she was guardedly evasive. I then got on the line of questioning of possible missing or itinerant ( for example the Army or nomadic jobs like truckers) - no dice. finally she said- very mildly- I never was Married, I had a child- like this was something akin to grocery shopping or doing the laundy- ho-hum household task without much thought! it made quite an impact. Up to then I thought B-----D was mainly a curse word and a fictional concept! not so. Of course there are single-parent families broken up by death ()natural) or divorce, artificial- but the term usually refers to mothers having kids out of wedlock, so to speak.

If you are reading this, please disregard this answer that was apparently written by an over-opinionated, ignorant, socially inept idiot who has nothing better to do with their time then answer innocent questions in a condescending, offensive, abrasive manner. This person obviously has a lot of repressed anger towards single mothers and lacks the respect that we deserve for embracing a lifestyle that most parents, male or female, could never endure alone.

No. Not if a family court has jurisdiction over the child and the father has visitation rights. If the parents were never married and there has been no court involvement or paternity established the mother can try to move. However, the father could file an action in court to establish his paternity, visitation rights and prevent the removal of the child from the state.

poverty. and lack of knowldge about sex education.

That depends on the law where you live. If a parent has sole legal custody, some states have no provision stating a parent must get anyone's permission including that of the court before they move out of state.

In other states, if a move would present a hardship for the non-custodial parent in terms of visitation, the mother may be compelled to provide transportation costs for the non-custodial parent's visitation.

In still other states, if a court ordered custody/visitation schedule is on record, the parent may not relocate without either the permission of the non-custodial parent, the court or both.

As you can see from my response, the law varies widely. You would need to provide your state of residence for an informed answer.

No, pursuing child support is the custodial parent's responsibility, the person who ended up supporting the child alone.

The advice is the same for either a mother or father traveling alone with a child. If you are traveling alone with your child you should be aware that concerns about parental abductions has made border officials more vigilant when they find a child traveling alone with one parent. You should be prepared to produce documentation such as a letter of authorization or travel consent signed by the other parent. In some countries you may not be asked for it. In others, you will be detained until your authorization can be reviewed by officials. The child may even be questioned about the other parent. You should also note that you may have trouble re-entering the country of origin. In the US a passport application requires the signatures, or a notarized permission letter, of both parents to take a minor child out of the country.

You should consult an attorney to have the proper documentation prepared.

Contact your state's department of child welfare.

At 16 you can not receive support directly to you, it is awarded to the parent who has custody so they can provide for you. You at 16 do not fully understand everything that you need, and the money could even technically be used to pay the rent or the electric bill. The courts feel that the custodial parent knows best how to spend that money, not the child.

You can't. You may need to hire a service to track down the other parent and then bring an action in the jurisdiction where they reside.

If paternity has been established the biological mother or person who has legal custody of the minor child can petition the court for child support from the father. The matter of not signing the birth certificate is irrelevant.

I am enquiring about a court order that my husband has against me. He left me on the 25th June and kept ringing me from his parents house stating he was coming back, then saying he wasnt. I got a bit angry because he had left me so he had me arrested on the 4th July. On that day he managed to get my little girl from schoool and I have not seen her since. He put a court order in suggesting that my daughter is in danger from me which is ridiculous. I love my daughter so much and I want her back her with me. My bail as now been squashed but I am unable toget my daughter back because my husband got a court order on me. The woman he has left me for is violent and she has left her 3 children who are on the child protection register to live with my husband at his parents house. She has broken my arm and i am worried for the safety of my little girl. Is there any way I can get my daughter back or can the court order be overturned. What would happen to me if i disobeyed the court order. Any help would be greatfully appreciated

Parental rights and child support are two different issues. Signing over your parental rights has no effect on your payment obligation unless the ending of the payment obligation is mentioned on the document.

The depends on the cause, as most mothers tend to be Gatekeepers. see link

This problem is most prevalent in males in their teens and early 20s. Males don't reach full maturity until age 30, whereas the woman reaches it at age 24. Far to often, young women forces a young man into being a father, when he's not emotionally ready for such a responsibility. As they mature, they come to realize that they have made a mistake. Preventing him from being a parent, regardless of when he came to this realization, only harms the children.

PA stands for "professional association." PC stands for "professional corporation." Both pretty much mean the same thing... just a corporate indicator proving that they are both licensed and filed as a business entity with the Secretary of State's office.
