What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Fl
I was just informed that my childs father had a live in girlfriend who also has a small child. Am I allowed to have her personal information; such as workplace and cell phone number? I don't even know her full name. We have never met and my daughter is planning on spending time with her dad this weekend in their home.

Frankly, none of your business.

The court trusts you to make sensible choices in friends, partners etc., and they'll trust Dad to do the same.

Why didn't you add this to your other thread?

CTU -- OP doesn't trust dad. Therefore she apparently thinks no one should.

Correct, I don't trust him. But in the spirit of co- parenting, I have made plans to meet for coffee the other individual who will be around our child tomorrow. Becuae we are adults. I should at least know the womans name. I mean, seriously.

I'm sorry, but I wouldn't show up. I'm none of your business. I'm not going to be "interviewed" by the ex. Your opinion of her doesn't matter. It's not like dad is going to break up with her if you say you don't like her, so "meeting for coffee" is futile.

I am going to disagree. If both parties are willing to meet, then a cordial situation can help foster good co-parenting. My daughter made a point of making friends with the mother of her daughter's half siblings for just that reason. The two of them have a great relationship and the children get to spend lots of time together even though dad is no longer in the picture for any of them.

Who knows...the OP clearly doesn't trust dad but after meeting dad's girlfriend the OP might trust HER, and that might help the situation for dad.

Thank you!!! You always offer the best advice. I appreciate your reply. Im literally just trying to do what's best for our child. And a cordial relationship between everyone will only benefit our daughter.

Well they agreed to meet. They actually want to me.

That's a GIRLFRIEND. She's not coparenting with anyone because she's not a parent (nor a stepparent). Even still. I'm not sitting down to have coffee with my husband's ex wife. Her opinion of me is irrelevant. I'm gonna be sitting right here in my cushy house whether she likes me or not, whether she trusts me or not because her opinion isn't welcome in this house, nor is it necessary. Conversely, my husband isn't looking to meet anyone she dates or marries (again... and again... and again). His opinion is worth the toilet paper she wipes her ass on.

And I for damn sure am not giving her my work information. You wanna talk to me for some strange reason during work hours, call my husband first. Unless it's about money. Call me first so I can say no.

Gosh, I bet nobody here could have ever predicted that response.

What business is it of yours where his girlfriend works? What do you plan to do? Call her work and tell everyone there she's dating your ex? Like they'd care.

She doesn't have to disclose anything. Nothing. But again, they both agreed to meet. They could have declined, but didn't. I'm just interested to see who is going to be around my daughter.

Sheesh. You would have found out her name when the child came home and told you. As long as she's nice to your daughter, does it really matter? I never officially talked to my children's stepmother until months after she had started dating Dad. Things I cared about: The kids loved her. The end. Stepmom and I developed our own friendship after that.

OP's child is only a baby - 5/6 or 7/8 months old. The baby won't be telling mom much of anything for a while yet! :)
