>My ex-husband and I divorced in July 2013 and in the divorce settlement we have shared custody of our two children together. We’ve been co-parenting and getting along (I thought very well of course for our kids).
I am in court with my son’s father for joint custody and I am concerned with all the drugs he does. If I ask for him to take a drug test will I have to take one to?
I am a lesbian and I want to use one of my guy friends to have a child. I want to know if I can use an agreement between both him and I to relieve him of his rights and responsibilities for the child?
About 7 years ago I was given a court order to pay child support. I was hit with 100% of paying the support because the child’s mom was not working. She has since remarried and moved out-of-state with her husband who works full-time.
I had a month-to-month verbal agreement to rent for a room paying 00 a month. After a dispute, she asked me to move out immediately after I had paid the month’s rent.
In calculating child support, if the custodial parent is remarried and her spouse is covering her and my child on his medical insurance policy, can she calculate that into the cost of insurance since she is not the one carrying it but her spouse?
I moved to Indiana to work and when I got there we found this home that was great, but the landlord turned out to be an idiot! We moved into a home that was filthy and needed major work (what was funny he moved out as we moved in and he knew we were coming).
I have been married for almost 7 years. The first 2 years of our relationship were great. We have 2 young children. I have been a homemaker since 2004. My husband has become an alcoholic and has talked to other women. There are lots of bad things that have come from what he has done.
My home is set on what is sometimes referred to as a zero lot line. My back porch is attached to the stockade fence that separates my property from my neighbor.
My boyfriend has been separated from his wife for about 8 years (separate homes and counties). They have a 15-year-old son and he lives with my boyfriend. There was no custody agreement or child support. She sees the child when she wants to and there is no problem with their arrangement.
