What do I do? Is she allowed to do this??

[mandajo88]

What is the name of your state?I lived in Georgia with my mom and stepdad. They have been raising me ever since my parents got divorced when i was two. I had two brothers, a full blooded brother who now lives with me at my dads in West Virginia and a halfbrother who still lives down in Georgia.
I moved to West Virginia in October. Me and my mom were fighting so she told us to go. Now she won't let my little brother John talk to me nor my brother. Is she allowed to tell him no, he wants to talk to us. We have been around him all his life and I know it has to be hard for his big brother and sister to leave him like that. Oh, and another question. If my dad gives me permisson to go down to Georgia and stay with my friends, can i do that without getting him in trouble. She still has some coustody over us and I didn't know if I have to stay with her or not. Please help me!

Sounds like you have alot going on. How old is the little brother? I don't see why your dad would get in trouble if you went to ga to visit friends, i dont see why you would have to stay with her, she kicked you out remember! are you planning to see your brother when you are there? I say go for it, your little brother shouldnt be punished for your mom being mad at you..

Mom legally has custody and she can have you brought home at any time. If Dad allows you to stay with someone else, she has the right to retrieve you from there. She also has the right to restrict any and all access to your brother. In other words, right now she holds all the cards.
