stepmother rights?

[>Charlotte<]

Take a good look around this entire site, Sarah. You'll find a lot of supportive opinions posted by people who are just trying to be nice.

You'll find posts telling custodial parents that it's perfectly fine for them to want to make a new life and, yes, there's not a thing in the world wrong with them moving five states away from the NCP.

You'll find posts telling recently-fired people that even though what happened to them was not illegal, it was not fair and they should sue.

Or nice, helpful, friendly, sympathetic posts "advising" people not to worry about their pending felony charges because, you know, the cop didn't read them their rights.

If any given OP posts a question here, and them comes back to find one legally correct answer and one "supportive" but legally incorrect answer, how is he supposed to know the difference? That's right. He's not. Do you have any idea how disastrous that could be for someone who comes here looking for answers to questions that have very serious consequences in their real lives??? It just takes a whole new category of ignorant not to understand that.

Feeling Better Now?

I believe that I indicated in my last post that I do understand that, and I have tried to be respectful and kind in my responses even to those with whom I don't believe respond with the same courteous manner. Please do not initiate an entirely new category of ignorant on my behalf, as that does not apply here. I hope that making that comment gave you whatever satisfaction you were seeking when you chose to post it. Good for you.

Sorry, my last response was in reference to the quote above!

You do realize, don't you, that no mater how many times you include the word 'please' in your post, you are deliberately being rude and baiting other posters (mostly the senior members)? That's perilously close to what you are accusing others of doing.

Honey, I'm as Southern as they come. I know how to tell someone to go to he!! and have that person think my tongue is made of sugar. You're almost there, but you need to work on your subtlety.

If you truly understood the dangers of idiotic postings then you would have never chimed in on this thread in the first place.

Believe me, I was being very subtle, and I will never apologize for having good manners and knowing when to use discretion, but thanks for your input just the same.

Sarah--it's unfortunate that you didn't notice my post was in reference to the many people who offer inaccurate advice. It's also unfortunate that you don't understand my comment about ignorance only applies if one doesn't understand. Perhaps it's my fault for not using more specific language.

PS mommyof4: I'm Southern, too. But now that I'm a lot older, I find it's much more efficient to just not bother with the "sugar" part.

Time to get back to the real world. Have a great day, everyone!

You know the posting laws...that were mad up..you tell us little members not be mean and be rude..when you yourself the senior members are being the rudest people on here..people are simply asking for help here...and that's a place where people believe that they can get some but obviously not. And my post about the form for the husband to sign. My husband signed one for me and the school said there is nothing legally she can do to prevent me from attending a meeting if it is seperate or not...if they have 50/50 legal custody. It his is right to be informed and if he chooses me to be the one that informs him while he is a way she can't stop you. And the restrainging order is only going to be issued if there is a reason to be one issued..I highly doubt a judge is going to issue a order against someone who is doing what the father asked him to do. I have completely given up on people on this website....you might want to follow your own advice of not being so completely rude yourselves...and belittling people.

And now you go to a JUDGE and see what the JUDGE has to say about this little misunderstanding (aka: interfening in the PARENTS' business). The school has no authority to release any information to you unless BOTH parents agree that you are to have it. That means that no matter what form you signed, unless you fall under FERPA guidelines, Mom has every right to demand that you NOT be included in anything. If Dad wants you to have that information, the DAD can give it to you.

We're still waiting on a citation that backs up the claim that an atty assigns you any rights.

I think the "form" you are speaking of is a Power of Attorney. It was already mentioned (much) earlier in this thread that a POA was a method that COULD be used.

Now, please tell me more about the "posting laws - that were mad up"
