When do the kids have the right?
"Paul Fritz" wrote in message ... AND, typically the wishes of the child is only one of a dozen or so factors that the coursts consider. LOL's maybe where you are from, knowing the judge will get you cusody. "Tracy" wrote in message newsqw3b.289733$uu5.64148@sccrnsc04... "PapaPolarbear" wrote in message . .. My oldest daughter has been very anxious to change the living arrangements we have (I have every second weekend) so that I have my daughters 2 weeks, mom has them 2 weeks. I'd do this now except that my ex will not discuss the scenario. At what age can my daughter flex her muscle and ask the courts to change the order? I have heard she will be taken seriously from about age 12. Any comments? I believe it is typically 13-14, but in truth it really depends on the judge. I suggest you seek the opinion of an attorney who knows the judges. You'll learn more from them than from us.

I have heard she will be taken seriously from about age 12. Any comments? Most states use 13-14 as the age where a child can express an opinion about custody. The court is usually required to consider the maturity of the child. The problem is most states also have child custody laws that list the child's preference as only one of about a dozen factors for the court to consider. In my case, the court blew off the child's stated preference, refusing to even hear directly from the child, and decided not to change custody after considering all the "other" factors. Now that sounds like the courts. The problem is the judges try to herd you through the system. They don't want to take the time to really study a case and make an appropriate decision. Instead, they use the "cookie cutter" approach and disregard the real issues a father might try to raise. Your best bet is to try to get the judge to require a formal custody evaluation by local child psychologists. Ya right, if your a dad, don't expect a good out come, child psychologists, use and play the feminist way, not favorable to fathers, and besides, it's all witch craft, and it's a good way of losing what you have if your the man, in most cases those clowns always seem to come up with some ourlandish claim that dads are harmful to the children, therefore supervised access is put in order. Even getting that step accomplished can be problematic since the ones who work for the county will just return the "good news" the judge wants to hear. What the mother is best fit. This process is called "negotiating in the shadow of the court." |

It's more then that, it depends on the child's age, but in all cases, it doesn't matter what the mother is or does, women get custody of the children... The avg.

At what age can my daughter flex her muscle and ask the courts to change the order? I have heard she will be taken seriously from about age 12. Any comments? 16 Yes. Your daughter can run away from her and seek refuge at your home. When the kourt people come and take her away, they will place her back with the mother. At that point, she can once again escape. Eventually, it will get to the point where they lock her up in children's prison rather than see her be with you. True colors at its finest! very good, but that wouldn't happen unless the mother agree's with it, but if she did the child would hate the mothers guts. Papa |

My experience with gaining custody of my son was the result of a professional child psychologist supporting me as being able to provide an environment where he would do better. Private child psychologists operate on a whole different level than the honks who work for the county courts. The psychologist got agreement up front that we would accept her evaluation and final recommendation. She interviewed all family members in every conceivable combination. When she announced her decision was for our son to live with me, my ex tried to renege on her agreement to accept the final outcome. The psychologist told her very directly she would testify on my behalf in court as an expert witness, explain to the judge how my ex agreed with the process, and then tried to renege. And she would testify any second opinion expert my ex tried to hire would have a hard time showing they were doing anything other than delivering the good news to confuse the issue. Then we scheduled several follow-up sessions to prepare for the physical change of custody and help me and my son understand how we could work best together to implement the change and resolve some of the issues he had been experiencing. |

Gee that a first then, not heard of that much at all, but in Canada, I can tell you in most cases that go in front of the courts, it doesn't matter if the fathers are good dads or not, or what professionals they hire. As it turns out, fathers in the majority of cases end up getting shafted, which leaves them with wasted money on witch craft psychologist. Having spent twelve years in the legal system I can tell you, your kind of case is rare, that is if the mother didn't fight you for custody, or she just gave you the kids, or she died, or as it just turns out she just to drugged out to even take care of a pet, let alone take care of a child. It well know that professional child psychologist are not going to win the day for fathers in a feminist court system, and I make that known up front, so not to give men the false hope of succeeding in their cases. You should be thankful you didn't lose but then you never said anything about the mother and why it was she lost the children. Private child psychologists operate on a whole different level than the honks who work for the county courts. Why that may be true, You seem to think most men have all this extra money to pay out for this witch craft, as it is they don't, the averge guy doesn't have huge dollars to spend to hire a dream team as it is to hire a witch craft doctor.. The psychologist got agreement up front that we would accept her evaluation and final recommendation. She interviewed all family members in every conceivable combination. That's standard procedure, it doesn't mean anything. When she announced her decision was for our son to live with me, my ex tried to renege on her agreement to accept the final outcome.

Well I glad for you, if you are the man, as it is most cases go the other way around with poor old dad getting the screws dug in deeper. |

You should be thankful you didn't lose but then you never said anything about the mother and why it was she lost the children. You are missing my point that an effective way for a father to gain custody is to get it done outside of the legal system and not leave it up to the court or court appointed county payroll child psychologists to pass judgement. In the U.S. most medical insurance covers psychological counseling up to a lifetime dollar limit. About 8-10 counseling sessions at about $75 each and reimbursed at 80% is not a very big cash outlay. |
