And the hits just keep on coming....

That sucks Dale, our thoughts are with you.

For those that don't know our history, Cat and I met when William was 3 months old. Since then I have been as a father to him
looking after him, whereas his bio-father, although obligated to have contact via a court order, rarely used to get in touch.

We did however over the Chrstimas break send William to his bio-father for visitation (something that had not occurred all year).

Now with Jeanette gone, they are refusing to return William. Not even to his own mother's funeral. They are claiming Custodial
rights.

So not only do I have to bury my wife next week, I also have to start court proceedings to re-gain custody of the boy I call my son.

 

That is totally fucked!!!

Although going on his past record it shouldn't surprise me ((


G-S

 

also unsurprised, and totally appaled

sorry to hear , hope you win over all this crap

Surely anyone in their right mind would see through this guy. Hope
getting his dirty hands off William will be easier than expected. Let
us know if you need anything.

One error in your post. It should read " I also have to start court
proceedings to re-gain custody of my son"

 

Perhaps I'm being a litle harsh, but just rock up at this bastard's house
with the many many bikers who are going to turn up for Cat's funeral, and
collect your son.. Problem solved ?

(Feel free to ignore me, I just used a bottle of wine as stress relief for
the hell of a week this has been so far..)

Hmmm... could be a job for Unky Wee Wee!

 

Heres hoping it all goes your way Dale. It's something I've thought
about & I hope I never have to face myself, My now 7yr old Step daughter
I have raised as my own since she was 1yr old.
I've obviously missed something here, What happened to Cat? If it's ok
to ask.
My Condolences to you & the kids.

Aido.

 

No need to reply to what happened, Just read the Cat post.
All the best Dale. You've got the best comunity of friends anybody could
ask for around you here.

Aido.

 

That would go down well in court for final custody.

 

Keep your head up Mr. You will be ok in the end.

After you win, THEN a good visit to him by the boys is in order.

 

In which case get your partner to get a will done, it's not the final
word but it helps

here, unless you had adopted the youngster. Best to let it rest without bad
blood and legal cost, as I'm sure the lad will miss you and want to visit
you,
sooner rather than later. If you just try to deal with the funeral etc and
get
that over before turning your attention to the matter of your "son." In the
future you'll want him to have a good life no matter who he's living with so
as long as he's being treated well, and you are able to have him visit you
he will be getting the best possible life. I'm sure he will always love you.
Please think hard before you act. Sometimes it's better to bend with the
wind and live to fight another day. Hope it works out.

 

Blood may be against you but you've had a constant and lifelong relationship
with this boy.

Right now he needs stability and a familiar environment.

I wish you all the best.

 

Sorry, I forgot to add what I thought was the obvious part (obvious only to
me, obviously).. - Return him after the funeral, then get started with the
court case.. I just think it's seriously messed up that that Will isn't
being allowed to go to his mother's funeral.

Don't get your hopes up too high. It's the family court.

That don't mean shit in the family court though.

Theo

 

I think you will need an emergency family law court sitting - or a
compramise with a family law court agreement done via a solicitor (out of
famlaw court)..

it sure is a kick in the teath while your down..
