  • Is this even realistic? Please help if you are educated in family law & custody issues?

    Ok so my daughter has been with me since birth. I live in Minnesota and my baby's father lives in Arizona. She has not seen her dad and he has not made any effort to support her or attempt to see her, I'll just throw that out there. Mind you, she is 8 months old now and he is demanding 3 to 4 month rotation thru our child custody case in court, if he can't have that, he wants over night stays. This does make me laugh, but from a lawyers point of view or someone who is well aware of child custody matters, is this even realistic? I just don't believe he comprehends how ridiculous it sounds to ask an 8 month old baby to go back and forth like that, and I guess I'm asking because I obviously would object 100%. Please help if u know any info on what I'm asking.

  • In desperate need of FAMILY LAW advice. Cannot afford an attorney at the moment.?

    Ok, so I recently gave birth to my daughter in the state of AZ 3 weeks ago. Up until the beginning of August, my baby's father was never involved with the baby or my pregnancy. He had asked me to move in with him so we can work on things and so I did. However, he began to make violent threats against my family and began drinking again so A week before I delivered on September 21st, I left him and gave birth without him, giving my daughter MY last name. Because my mom & dad were in the process of moving to MN during the midst of all this craziness, I obviously made the choice to go with because MN is where my support system is. I have nowhere to stay in AZ. Two days before my flight, my baby's father served me papers basically stating he would like a DNA test and sole custody of my daughter, asking the courts that I could not leave the state. Nowhere in the documents did it say I couldn't leave AZ tho. However, it did have a court date for November 4th, in which I obviously am unable to attend. It also had a judges signature and stated that I have the choice to respond to the documents before the court takes what he's asking into consideration. I'm curious to know what I should do from here. Neither I or my family can afford a trip to AZ for court, and I was escaping an abusive relationship in order to have the support and love I need from family. I am a single unmarried mother, and like I said, his name is NOT on the birth certificate.

  • Am I in labor?! Should I go to the hospital yet?! Please help.?

    I'm 21 years old, 1st time mom and so confused. I JUST went to pee and when I wiped, I saw a slimy streak of thick discharge with some light pink blood on the toilet paper, I know it's my mucus plug, however I have been leaking a lot of fluid and I'm not sure if it is urine or my water leaking. I have SUPER uncomfortable dull cramps all around my lower abdomen that feel like menstrual cycle cramps, they make me feel like crap. I'm just wondering, is this the start of labor? I've never been so uncomfortable with these dull cramps. My grandma thinks it's nothing but I'm super worried, I know it's T.M.I, but my panties are soaked from this slow leakage and the light bloody discharge freaks me out. PLEASE HELP

  • PLEASE HELP!?

    So I'm 21 living in AZ, 36 weeks pregnant and I am an unmarried mother. My baby's father was not involved until now. I originally moved to MN because that is where my parents are moving to, however my baby's father and I worked things out and I moved back to AZ to live with him and raise our daughter. He and I have been ok, however if we were to break up, I would need to go to MN because that is where my emotional and financial help from my family would be. Being an unmarried mother, am I allowed to leave the state with my daughter if the only place I have to go is MN where my family is? If we were to break up, I wouldn't really have anywhere to go to better myself other than MN...someone please help, I'm so confused.

  • PLEASE HELP ME. In desperate need of honest opinions and help. Is it wrong of me to want to feel emotionally healthy?

    So I am 20 years old, roughly 6 months pregnant and my babys father is not involved, doesn't believe the baby is his and I guess wants a DNA test. I have had the toughest time and most stressful pregnancy. I lived in AZ all my life and my parents told me a few months ago that we are moving to Minnesota. Our house is huge and full of so many things, they think they are moving by the end of the summer but everyone I know thinks its impossible with how much stuff we have to move or give away to charity. Last month I began looing at school programs in Minnesota and found this "pregnancy care college" in St. Cloud Minnesota that helps young mothers, I thought this place seemed beneficial and something that would give me hope. My parents backed me up 100% and basically just rushed me to make this decision to leave to Minnesota \ early before they move, kind of like they wanted me to leave, but maybe im just being too sensitive. I came here thinking everything would be ok and realized its not. !st off, this place is NOT what I expected at all. This place is clearly for TEEN moms with absolutely no structure in their life which is the complete opposite of who I am. I am extremely hormonal and home sick, im crying and stressing almost every day here without my sister and parents, and I was just diagnosed with mild depression by my counselor here. Right now my heart is telling me to move back to AZ but my parents are telling me don't. im just so confused. is it wrong to want this?

  • Need help! So lost right now?

    Ok so I'm pregnant and moving to Minnesota from Arizona. My baby's father (Ex bf) lives here in AZ, no we are NOT married, and he wants nothing to do with me or the baby. So question #1 is, would the child support system go off of the state of Minnesota or ARIZONA? And if my ex makes roughly 900 every 2 weeks, how much would child support be, I'm just curious.

  • please help me, anyone....?

    I recently just broke up with my boyfriend I was living with from September 2013 to January 2014. When I moved back home with my parents 3 hrs away from where I was living, I found out I was pregnant. I contacted my ex as soon as I found out but he insisted I was lying, denied the baby, said it wasn't his. He also happened to have a new gf within a week of me moving out and even put HER on the phone to tell me my baby is not his, when I know for a fact it is. I finally gave up on him. That aside I've known for several months, even before I was pregnant that my family is moving to Minnesota. I currently live in Arizona and im 11 weeks pregnant. My family is set to move in 2 to 3 months. The father of my baby lives here but 1. I have no means of support and living here if I stay behind and 2. I have no reason 2 stay behind because my ex isn't involved. What do I do? Can I move? What if he tries to get custody when I move? Child support? DNA test? I'm so confused.
