we have friends who stated in the visitation rights (for a certain time, anyways) that there are to be no significant "others" at the place where the child lives, and vice-versa... they can't go to the other's place... at least without court and both parties' consent...
things like this just leaves me scratching my head :dontknow:,,i dont get it ,,if you split and kids are involded making demands like this does nothing but hurt the kids in long run !
My ex ,way back in the freaking 80,s did samething with a twist ,,it was ok for her to bring someone around my son but if another girlfreind of mine was around she went nuts :dontknow:
when this type of crazy demands come up the wacko person only serves to do them selves a diservice ,,
what happen with my son is the first time he brought a girl home to meet his mom she turned on the girl and tried to belittle her in the end and ended up alienating my son , he still loves his mom but has a bit of problem with her not liking and not treating his gal with respect ,,they have been together now for 10 years and are getting married next month ,,
Its almost like the one that makes the crazy demands like this only is doing so because they are afraid that the child might actually like the new person in their life and feels threatened by them .
now mind you i do understand that other things get thrown into the mix ,,like drug & acohol abuse and such ,,but the one who keeps a level head will always come out ahead
Me and Becky have been together for 20 plus years and married for 11 now ,,her and my son get along top of the line ,,on the other hand my son and his moms hubby cant stand each other ,,Becky has never had a bad word to say about his mother and encourages him to work it out with her ,,on the otherside my ex,s hubby talks crap all the time about me ,,of course i did pick him up once and slambed his ass down on a concret driveway and kicked the shit out of him after i found out he let one of his daughters that was 10 years older than my son push my boy around when he was 8 and was letting her take the things i gave to him
Just my 2 cents ,,,with the obama economy is only worth 1.25 cents now
