I have a 16 yr old daughter. She has made friends with a 15 yr old girl and we are trying to keep them from contacting each other. The problem is my daughter wants contact with the girl, we as her parents don’t. We tried setting limits like no phone contact and not allowing them to see each other but I just found out tonight the other girls mother is helping them to see each other behind our backs. Is there something like a restraining order that we as her parents can file, against both of them I guess, ordering that there be no contact? Can we prevent her from this relationship and others like it as long as she lives in our house or only until she is 18?

Short of hiring a lawyer which is beyond our means what actions can be taken to stop this.
I entered a drawing for a room makeover from a furniture store (filled out a basic entry form). I won. We went to the store & met with the designer who had a grouping picked out for me. I did not like it. We spent the next 2 hours picking out the furniture we wanted. Then I was contacted by the tv news sponser of the contest and told that our furniture was not approved and that in the rules of the contest, it stated that the furniture was at the discretion of the furniture company. However, I never saw the rules. Do we have any legal rights in this situation to actually get the furniture we want?

Would I have to be notified if a restraining order was indeed placed against me? Also, could she file a restraining order against me for friendly emails?
