I did... and to be quite honest, I haven't quite figured out how to get over it. I don't dwell on it, but it comes to mind from time to time and still infuriates me! Yet, he doesn't know why I can't or haven't moved past it yet. He doesn't understand why I harbour so much resentment... hmm, I...

:arghh: YEAH... I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT YOU MEAN! Don't know how many you have... but um, I have this problem magnified 3x!!! Seems that MY room is the only one that stays 1/2 way walkable and I spend a lot of time reminding the kids that it's MY room and that they don't have toy boxes in my room!

LOL... well, Fooser, it was very noble of you to take on that child as your own. I'm really sorry it turned out like this. As for the child though, you just need to be honest with him and tell him that y'all are getting divorced. How old is he? If she's willing to give you partial custody...

Tell me something else... in preparation of Christmas gifts, I went through the kids' rooms and threw out a lot of stuff. If there wasn't a matching piece or something they didn't play with for a month, it was gone. Yet, somehow, here it is Feb 1st and their rooms are so incredibly cluttered, I...

<SIZE size="125">WHY is there NO ANSWER for WHY? Of the many, many things my children of varying ages have done and still do, I find myself pulling my hair out with "why" questions from the kids! I have found that, "why are you asking me so many crazy questions?" worked for a long time until one...

Oh, I understand what you are saying. HE already got a paternity test without my permission when he was still a baby anyway. In fact, I didn't even have the slightest clue that he ever had ANY question whatsoever that the baby might not be his. It was his ex-wife that told him the baby probably...

<I>Well, at least you maintain a sense of humor here! That's always a plus. So, you took on the child as your own, does that mean you legally adopted the child? Where is the baby's biological father? Is he a citizen, or illegal too? </SIZE>[/FONT]</I>

DNA test for what? I'm not needing to ESTABLISH paternity or anything. And he's not trying to get out of his parental rights.

How old is the child? Did Fooser adopt the child? Perhaps, change his last name? What's the SHORT version of the story here? I'd really hate to have to read all 14 pages of this thread. :veryconfused:

I didnt' read the entire thread... it's very long! Fooser lives in Denver, is that Colorado? Is that not his biological son?

Ah, well, this is where the benefit of "looks can't kill" comes in to play. You return a glare of, "don't look at me like I have no clue what I'm talking about!" looks. :p Have y'all been back to the doc yet? Anything new?

I found this very interesting link... http://www.lawguru.com/cgi/bbs/message.php?i=702220638&amp;view=a[/URL]

Fooser, Isn't the child an american citizen? Why would she be able to take the child with her if she ends up being deported? Wouldn't that lead to citizenship issues for the child in Mexico? Check into the family laws for your state. I know here in Texas, there are restrictions about...

<I>My 7 year old son was diagnosed last year with ADHD and OCD.The doctor said that treating the first problem, ADHD, would help with the OCD, but if I still wasn't satisfied, to go ahead and seek treatment for the OCD as well. I have my son on Focalin XR. After the diagnosis, I struggled with...

No, we weren't married. We weren't ever engaged and we never lived together. In Texas, the father named on the birth certificate has the same rights as the mother. It's pretty much whatever is agreed upon. When I divorced my husband (the father of my oldest two), the judge asked what our current...

Well, I'm not the one who's got the problem with this... it's him. He originally asked for 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off - despite his shifting schedule. My counter offer was 1 week on, 1 week off - until he finished out the school year. He didn't like that. Said it wasn't stable enough. The next...

</SIZE>[/FONT] <I>I completely agree... unless a mother is "unfit" in some way, then any child is always going to be better off in the mother's care rather than with someone else. Granted, this someone else is my son's grandmother, BUT... he's not her son and has <U>no business</U> trying to...

One more tidbit of information. We do not have anything LEGAL in regards to custody. We've ALWAYS split it up and/or spent it together. It was always a given that when he was at work, I'd have our son and when he was off, he'd have our son. He works 14 days every month and is off 14 days every...

Hi... it's me again. Just wanted to clarify a couple things here. As a parent who is guilty of moving my children around from one district to another, I have learned the hard way that it's difficult for children to adjust. However, my circumstances didn't allow any other alternatives. They are...

Oops, I didn't finish something. When asked how he could make such a proposition to me when he doesn't feel there are "dangers" involved and says he "trusts" me as a parent, his response was, "just forget it... have it your way then!"
