Thanks Soc,

Your advice is really solid. You must be an attorney. My Attorney suggested the same strategy after filling the sole custody petition.

Attorney says that mom has no legs to stand on due to the letter from DHS and the judge and DHS suggesting that the child not return to the home until the mom gets help.

We also have a second letter from the shrink that DHS took my kid to and it also sugests that the mom gets further psyc counseling.

Not to mention a letter from the child to the judge which is attached tot he petition. The letter is also nototrized as well.

Pictures were taken of the wounds (skin removed)

So Multco is very easy on abuse?

Attorney also suggested that I appear in Domec Rel Court to straigthen out the mess. Attorney has been right thus far, but I just wanted to get a 2nd opinion from the team. I've sought advice from the board 2 years ago which led me to obtain physical custody.

You tell it like it is and that's what I need.

Dear Socrates

   My daughter was recently taken out of the home by DHS for reported Child Abuse. I was notified by DHS out of state of the incident. I immediately flew down to see about my daughter. When I arrived, I was told by DHS that my child was placed with the moms friend (nearby) and that a saftety plan was in place.

The mother agreed that she applied more than necessary force to the child causing my daughters arm to bleed from possible belt buckle blows.

My daughter was then taken to counseling which they suggested that mother recieve psy counseling.

I filled for emergency custody and was granted. The child and I returned to my state of residence. I then after filled for sole cutody and the mother objected. She desires for us both to share joint custody with her maintaining physical custody after she finishes her anger management classes.

My question is does she have leverage to obtain physical custody in a few months after DHS "founded" child abuse?

Mother is presently on "supervised visitation" as per DHS.

DHS has since withdrawn their case immediately after my recieving temporary emergency custody.

I have to return for a hearing in Domestic Relations Court about the moms objecting to sole custody. What are some things I can do to maintain custody of my child and protect her from harm mom can cause to child?

I really admire women who do the right thing when they have the power to do the wrong thing. This shows character. I always hear drama about he doesn't do this or that.

Thank you for setting me straight. I didn't mean to sound conniving, I'm just trying to get information. Thanks again.

I have a question for the group. I've had temp custody of my child for 2 years. My ex's attorney has requested that I fill out a uniform income statement along with last three years tax returns and pay stubs for 2007.

I guess I will finally recieve child support for the child.

My dilemma is that I previously started a C corp. this year that has not paid me a check. Reason being is that I'm trying to establish a business and presently incur various expenses like rent, phone, utlities, etc.

The Uniform Income Statement asks for either a Schedule K-1 and or Corporation federal income tax return for the self employed.

My problem is that I just started the business and have not received a payroll check, nor filed any tax returns for the business as of yet.

What do I put down for my income? My business has received income from a small contract, but I have not paid myself for any services rendered to the business.

Has anyone experienced this before? If so, can you offer me some insight? Thanks a lot.

I love this board,

Believe me guy, giving up your rights to make peace is a very costly mistake. I have been there done that, I've got the T-Shirt and the hat.

I can see this situation from a mile away. Your ex- is definately unhappy with her life right now. Misery loves company. I can guarantee that your fiancee is competetitive in either looks, career or both.

This is what pisses most ex's off. They begin to compare what their lives could have been with you.

Even a girlfriend that dogs you out and doesn't love you gets a little jealous when you find someone you love. That's human nature.

I suggest that you stand your ground, remain in position and love, lead, and protect your children. The way you inwhich you resolve this situation with their mom will be traning ground for your children to learn how to deal in difficult situations.

Be expeceted to recieve child support increases, friction in drop off/pick up schedules, and maybe a new boyfriend for competition.

If this happens, by them both a gift card from Starbucks :-)

Throw her a curve by remaning successful. Look successful, wear a suit, smile like colgate, and do your best to iron clad your emotions around her and the children.

This will immediatly disarm her offense and switch her on the defense. Defenately include the fiancee in most affairs, but only do this from the heart and not for spite . Ill motives back fire.

I have 2 ex's and remaining happy and excited as "Jim Carey" kills em

Celeberate your new love with the world.

No problem

Thank you so much Sheryl and group.

I currently live out of state from where my child previously lived. The mom has been ordered to attend parenting classes and family counseling.

I'm also starting to see signs of manipulation from the child. She will withholds things like progress reports, school incidents, and other things. She shares more information with outside people like her court appointed advocate and mentor.

I don't know how to reach a child when we can't communicate. I've tried family counseling, anger management, parenting classes, prayer, and its challenging.

The child is awesome in academics, but is unremorseful when she gets suspended.

One thing I know for certain is that she hates structure and stretches the truth.

I've been informed that one more fight means permanent expulsion.

I'm clueless.
