My ex is creating problems for the Jake in school.... geez.... She sent an email to the school saying she wants him to participate in the Winter concert and sing holiday songs... See Ian, this is what I was telling you about before. She's a trouble maker.

That's ok though. I talked to the principal. Jake only has to sing the winter/seasonal songs. She just boils my blood. Some women are pure evil. haha

Wow, that's pretty rough. :/

since you have custody cant you put her on a "do not" list. like "do not release info, child, ANY INFO" type of list. like if she calls just hear her out and thats it.

we had had guardianship of my nephew when he was little (his mom, my sis, had MAJOR issues going on) and we did that with his schooling etc. so he was not to be released to her, the school wasnt to contact her, adn if she called it was strict that they dont take her advice (etc) like just ignore her like the crazy lady. and the school complied.

yeah i was gonna say how does that hold any water, a parent who does not have physical custody at the time, in a different state no less, what say does she have

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

unless the schools etc know, specifically, they still release info etc cause she is a "parent" ya know.

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

nutty

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

oh yeah it is. we had to go through it and its not fun. like my poor little nephew was almost a "prisoner" at his own school. my sis was crazy and his dad was in and out of prison so we had to take EVERY step to have him protected.

The stupid thing about the arrangement is that it's considered split custody still. So by law she has rights to enforce stuff and get info. I couldn't get the judge to uphold a "no holiday" celebrating in school. So what I am going to do is file a motion requesting that the children make a choice on their own whether to do it or not. Jake is 8 and has chosen not to. So I think 8 should be the cut-off for both kids.

And while I'm at it, I'm requesting more child support. I get $50 a week for two kids... Give me a break. I know people who get $150 for 1 kid.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

so its joint custody? you dont have them like a 51%/49% type thing?

how old is emily? (thats her name right?)

B
brothermanOG 2004

Its more like 85%/15% and yet they consider it joint custody. haha...

Yes, she is 6. Speaking of her, her teacher gave her a book about ghosts yesterday. I was pissed. I told her to throw it away. That woman seems to side with Emily's mother. Don't ask me why...

B
brothermanOG 2004

And 13.5% of that time she has is a month in the summer that she takes them.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

of course she'll side with the ex...satans helping her. just hang in there. beleive me i understand that troubles.

B
brothermanOG 2004

Well I'm gonna help her with a drop kick. Hahahaha....

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

hahaha seriously huh? too bad you cant put the kids in private school.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

that's all the help anyone ever needs. a good dropkick usually sets matters straight.

juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

yeah... because it's okay for parents to lie about santa, the easter bunny, the tooth fairy and other crap, but it's NOT OKAY for us to "brainwash" our children with Bible Truths

B

People are sick and twisted, what can ya do.

theremin thereminOG 2002

Well, you know that's not strange, right? Of course the teachers are gonna side with the non-Witness. Because the teachers generally want the kids to participate in everything and not have any restrictions.

B
brothermanOG 2004

No he doesn't. He approached me about it. I sent his teacher an email, then the teacher told the principal about it. Apparently it's part of the cirriculum to sing.
