[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Here’s the real concern: You’ve now triggered a pissing match between your sister and your niece’s father. He filed for child support and that’s causing a financial hardship. [b]It is very very likely that your sister files for 50/50 custody to reduce/eliminate child support.[/b] The stepdad already didn’t like your niece before any of this. Now he’s going to absolutely hate her. That would put her in such a vulnerable position if she were forced to live in that house half her life. You didn’t do anything wrong, but you also didn’t do anything right. Nobody is thinking about protecting this girl. It’s common for parents to be the ones to smooth over awkward social situations with their children and extended family. Both parents have abdicated this role and that leaves your niece really phucking vulnerable. [/quote] That's not how it works in child custody. She signed the paperwork agreeing to ex getting primary custody, with the attending CS, despite not paying it and ex not collecting it. There has to be a change in circumstances that would trigger a change in custody and "I screwed up and can't afford the child support I agreed to, and now I want to avoid actually paying for my daughter's needs by having her live with me" isn't on that list. If you can't afford child support, how can you afford to actually house your child? This is ridiculous. [/quote] Obviously, she wouldn’t use child support as the reason. No child custody agreement is ever “forever” she could simply file saying that after trying dad having full custody it is not working and the child would’ve better off spending equal time with each of her parents.People ask for adjustments in custody all the time. If she wanted to go nuclear she could claim parental alienation and try to get full custody. The only person who loses here is the girl. Again, zero people are looking out for her best interests. [/quote] That's still game playing. And complete BS and shouldn't be posted here as strategy. No one should see that - OP, anyone else in similar situation - as a strategy. It's why our family courts are BROKEN and sick. P.S. "Hmmm, gee, it's not working" on the heels of finally paying child support isn't a valid reason. Courts aren't as stupid as you think they are. They're broken, but they're not as stupid as "what a coincidence, the minute she has to pay child support, suddenly this arrangement isn't working" stupid. P.P.S. You should be ashamed for even suggesting parental alienation syndrome. [/quote]
