Family - July 2007

I am the dad with domicile custody of my 2 kids. They live with me. My ex-wife gets them every other weekend. She has 3 warrants out for her arrest. She is living out of a tent with her boyfriend in some ones backyard and sometimes a motel.

A policeman (a friend of mine) told me they could possibly take my kids away from me if they know I am letting the kids go with her. For the reasons above. Now the custody order says she gets the kids every other weekend.

Do I keep the kids with me and go against the order, or Do I let them go with her? Can they take my kids away from me if I let them go?

I am representing myself, I have already been awarded domicile custody. I cannot afford a lawyer. She has not been paying her child support payments, Legal aid will not help me. I know if she decides to call the police if I do not let her have the kids, she will be arrested because of the warrants.

Any help on what to do, Or what you would do in my situation?

Thanks for your help.

Right now I am stuck in a very difficult situation. The more I think about it the more confuse I get. Well that is why I have turned to yahoo answers again for help. I trust this place and the opinions I get especially from my contacts. The situation is as follows:
My father in law came to my husband when we were in the middle of the move and said to him the following.
F: Why am I not returning your moms phone call. Your mom left her a message twice and she didn't return the phone call. It seems like that I am blaming her for my son's sickness. Just a brief background , my son got really sick after we came from my mother in laws house last week. She didn't tell us anything that she was sick. We took him to the doctor and the doctor confirmed that the type of viral infection he got comes from another person and not from the environment. Well my husband called his mom after 2 3 days and calmly informed them thatour son is sick and tha we took him to the doctors and he said he might wo

I called about on the phone and asked her why she said no one had been at my house when someone clearly had. She maintained that he never came to the door and she never spoke to my boyfriend.

She then accused me of having one thing on my mind and being neglectful of my son.I am a single parent, I do not go out and party or drink, I go to school and am looking for employment.

She also said that she thinks he is after only one thing too and that I should dump him because he is apart of the same lot as my ex ( the deadbeat father who was nothing but scum).

My daughter has come to visit me for some time or maybe permanently. She lived with her Dad in another state and is 15.

I know that she thinks that I am not a good mother because I have left and abandoned her so many times. Yet, she may not see that her father was abusive with me.

I don't know if I should be worrying about what she thinks of me or just let her form her own impressions either good or bad.

I am glad that she has come to stay with me, but am surprised. I went to stay with her (she lives in another state) and left after three weeks.

I think that I was probably the only alternative since staying with her grandmother was not a good option and her Dad was still in a state of transition since he moved due to job reasons.

I know that I have not done for her what other mothers have or what my two sisters-in-law have for their children.

I think my sister has been brainwashed. She moved in with this guy and I told her I didn't think it was right, but it was her life. Anyway, she's gradually lost contact with everyone in the family. She's promised see us several times and not shown. She's given us false addresses and refused to answer calls from us. She is 21 years old and an adult, but I can't help feeling she's making some bad choices. We saw her at the HPDH book party at Borders and I thought there weren't any problems. I didn't talk to her much, but we haven't really spoken much since we fought. Today, she sent the entire family an email, disowning us and her MIL sent us an email cursing us, calling my mother a fat, old, b*** and calling us a cult and bible thumpers and saying they were now my sister's family. She went on, with more insults and cursing. This isn't the first time one of her in-laws has cussed us out. Should we ignore the MIL email? It kinda scares me.

I went with my dad and my sis to get ice cream, my sis is always doing things for my mom so i thought i would take my moms ice cream to her. My sister got mad and so did I, I got out of the rover and smeard whip creme on the dash board. My dad started yelling at me! I said that is wasnt permenant and and that it would come off with a wet towel. And I walked off as I went down the sidewalk through our carport i shut the gate to my backyard so the dog wouldnt get out and went inside. I gave my mom the ice cream and as i turned around my dad grabs me by the ear and drags me across the living room saying if i ever "slam" the gate on him again he was gonna beat my a**. He dosent do this alot. But every time he does he comes in to apologize. I told my mom to tell him to leave me ALONE. Can anyone tell me if this entire situation is MY fault?!!?

i live with my grandmother and as her health deteriorates, she is becoming more difficult.
e.g. she shouts at something for me to do but she already asked me a 'million times'.
nursing home not an option.

Mostly I call my wife by her name, but often, especially around my kids I call her "mommy" (she calls me "daddy" often too)

I consider this a term of affection, as does she, and have no problem with this. (nor does she)

However my real mother apparantly told her at dinner last night that she shouldn't let me call her this. (My mother hated it when my dad would call her mom)

So question:
is it wrong? Bad taste? Bad for a marriage? I get the impression it is anti-feminist. (mom's a bit feministic)
Though clearly my wife isn't my mom, she is the mom figure for my family, so isn't this OK?
I certainly don't want my kids to call her anything other than mom, and me anything other than dad.

Anyway, how proper/improper is this?

P.S. the question ISNT weather or not this is any of my mom's business, because clearly it isn't. Ultimately what we call each other is our decision, and we are certainly going to be using the mom/dad labels in my mom's presence A LOT!!

my son is really sick with a new cancer. my daughter in law wants me to watch the boys so she can tend to things,and I dont mind that, except she gives me orders instead of asking and before I flew out to help if i call the hospital and he had a visitor she wouldnt let me talk to him or tell him I was on the phone. He was 1800 miles away. How can I get along with her so she won't upset my son with our disagreements?

I am dating a man who allows his 11 1/2 yr old daughter to sleep in his bed with him every night. He also allows her to share his bathroom, dressing area, shower, etc while she has her own bedroom and bathroom. They do not close the bathroom door while they are showering, only pull it slightly closed. Should I be concerned? He gets defensive if it is mentioned to him as being questionable and knows a court of law would have trouble with it when he sues the mother for custody, yet he refuses to change it. Any advice?

My mom has a serious gambling problem, and she's not a very happy person overall. I think a lot of people get annoyed by her. However, she is my mom, and I'm afraid she is going to blow all her money and end up with nothing. She spent her 2nd mortgage money and now is starting to draw from her retirement.

How do I get help for her? Where do I start? I live about 8 hours away, so I'm not very close. I work for a living, but I just started a new job, so I don't have that much money to spend. My mom has started to ask my sister for money.

I really want to tackle her REAL problem which is gambling...not money. Anyone gone through this? I want my mom to get better!

I was very cruel to someone, verbally. It doesn't matter that I'm right about some of it, that I was angry coz I want things to be better for them. And...I feel I can't help after all sometimes.... It was still wrong and it can't just be taken back.... Crap.
