I agree with you.  Stick to you guns.  They shouldn't be sleeping in the same room.  If the dad will put the boy in his room for the night, she could stay in his room.  (I don't know how you will KNOW, but I would at least suggest that as a possibility.)  She is your girl.  Protect her.  I can't imagine the courts going for that sort of a sleeping arrangement with kids of that much of an age difference.  It is definitely a bad situation.  She needs her own space.\n\nYou might need some professional evidence here.  If that is the case, enlist the help of your pediatrician.  Surely he/she will know about the dangers that you are trying to protect her from.  If the child has a therapist, she could do a letter as evidence for the court.  Any professional that you could use as a backup resource would be helpful to you are you argue this out.  Go prepared to make your case.  Your local social services agency may be able to help you and/or offer some guidelines that they follow for these situations.\n\nHere are some links that may help:\nhttp://www.casoxford.on.ca/html/faq.html#8\nhttp://www.familyfun.go.com/parenting/child/dev/expert/dony127fasharebed/\nhttp://apu.3.forumer.com/a/sharing-rooms_post6015.html\n\nThere are so many more.

every state has different child custody laws. this is what mine are:  i moved from cali to texas when my daughter was 3 months old her father stayed in cali. the order was that i had full physical custody and joint legal custody which means i have her all the time but if anything happened, like god forbid and accident, he would have a say in the matter. now that she is 6 she has to see him at least twice a year for at least a week but that is with me there and we split the cost of airfare. alot can be done and you have a while before you have to worry about that.in my experience i have learned that most family courts are in favor of the mothers and a baby needs his/her mother the first year most. stay strong it will all work out. congratulations!

Visitation is usually worked out in a courtroom and the judge will dictate the final terms.  An older child would have a say in the decision-making process.  A younger child probably would not.

I am so sorry for you! I am not experiencing the same, but my daughter has to have visitations with her father. He has threatened to kidnap her, so I'm always worrying about it. Also my child is 4 and has told me that her father touches and hurts her peepee. I've contacted several different agencies, lawyers, docs etc. Nothing is being done! I feel the frustration that you are going thru!The judge actually granted extra time on visits and went to unsupervised visits b/c evidence was inconclusive.I was told that if my ex was to run off with my daughter there was really nothing that I could do, even though I also have full custody. Why? Because he is the child's rightful parent too, and is allowed visitation. HUH??? I swear that is what they told me. But yet if I refuse to give my daughter over to him for his visits I will be arrested for kidnapping! ?????What a world we live in! Give me an email sometime. I'd like to stay in touch with you even if it's just to offer support. I hate to mention it but have you tried all the hosp. in the area that you last knew them to be? How about tracking them down via Yahoo White pages? Do you know of any family or friends that she might take your daughter to. Maybe you could contact them or go see them face-to-face. I don't know your financial sit. but hiring a private investigator might help. Have you posted their pics at police stations? They can fax it to others nationwide. Offer a reward. And above all else don't give up until you know for sure. And PRAY, PRAY, PRAY!!I will pray for you right now! God be with you! The answer about checking with schools is great. When you move to a new school the old school has to contacted and then they send info and should keep this on record. Maybe if she was in a Headstart program or a preschool program like pre-K you might be able to get some info thru them. As her biological father, you have the right to request that info and they cannot deny you it.Amy

I was watching a top divorce lawyer on the wright stuff this morning!!!\n\nWell a woman called in and she asked,"would she be entitled to anything, she lived with her partner for "9 YEARS" and had a young child with him and the answer to that was "NO"\n\nYou will have to pay for the child of course.

Tell the father that his son needs a bedroom to himself. There is nothing wrong with them sleeping together as long as that is all that is going on. Just ask the dad to get the boy his own room. As soon as he has his on room, he can stay over again. If the dad gets mad, tell him to go ask the courts for a decision. That should accomplish this task.

i don't know of any kind of claim she can file. just help her out financially, well make your son work and help. sounds like you should have a family meeting with both sides. nothing can be resolved if you cant talk. its not your fault your son and his girl was having sex i am sure he was educated about it by you. let her family know that you and your family are willing to help out and that your son will step up to the plate as take on his responsibilities.

Joint physical custody is a nightmare! Don't make your kid's shuffle between houses more than they have too. Finances should always take a back seat to their welfare.

"The judge is not sure if she can overrule jurisdiction because the children do not reside in that county anymore."\n\nPrecludes providing you with any relevant answers in this forum.\n\nGiven the obvious complexity of the case, you would be extremely foolish to follow advice given over the Internet.\n\nSave  your money and hire a lawyer.

the best idea for a 14 year old boy and a 7 year old girl is to sleep over at different houses.  You're beginning to sound like a perv. Brand new account, no questions answered, all your questions are this same one.  You're obsessed and coming off as a sicko

I'm sure she could go to her attorney and file  a motion to change the terms of their agreement.  However, I would urge her to be cautious when it comes to the issue of having someone (a b/f) move in with her.  It's not healthy for the kids to get use to someone who may not always be around.  Have her make sure the relationship is going to last - marriage would be better.

Your son did good by leaving and should counter file against her for filing false police report. Also if there were any adult witness in the facility it would be best for him to get statements form them to take with him that he was the bigger person and left.

The court can decide anything they want  when it comes to the best interest of the child.  It could be that they feel she can handle one child but is too stressed and overwhelmed to handle three.

I don't know in TX, but in another States 12 is the age.  But check with an attorney or even better try to deal with your child.

take her to a family court

It depends on the wording of the court order.  What does it say about reasonable accomodation for visitation arrangements.  Also, take into consideration what is best for your child.  Will it take a little accomodation on your part to make the switch feasible?  If so, isn't a little compromise better for the environment of the child who will see his/her parents working together rather than against each other?
