I am considering leaving my husband. He has full custody of his two children ( their mother is no where to be found). These children think of me as their mother. I know if I leave they will not be taken care of and will end up split up or that the state may take them. I am worried about them. What are my options?What rights does a step parent have to the step child?
If you adopt them before the divorce, you will be the legal mother and entitled to custody. This is your best option.What rights does a step parent have to the step child?
The only rights that a step parent has in what the child gives them. It would be almost impossible for you to get custody if your husband wanted it. How long that you have had the children and their ages would be a big factor. You give very little information. The state will not take them if you are willing to care for them. If there is a place where they want to be and are wanted there, the judge will put them there. The state also looks at the money it saves them. Good Luck, I admire you for wanting to raise some one else's children.
Legally adopt the kids before you get a divorce. That's the only way you'll have parental rights. Otherwise - if the kids end up in foster care, blood relatives will have first dibs on them. If you don't have to fight anyone, you might be able to get custody depending on how old the kids are - if they're old enough (roughly age 12 and up), they can ask the judge to be placed in your care.
None. Unless you legally adopted them, you have no rights to keep them at all. Even if you turned him in for child abuse or some other such claim they wouldn't give the children to you unless you became a certified foster parent.
I think you can get a lawyer and possibly get some rights. But its unlikely you will get custody since your not a biological parent.
gotta go to court and prove him as unfit. if there is no biological link between you and the kids it may be very hard. get a good lawyer. good luck

Have you ever seen a parent use inappropriate or accidental actions to train their kids?
Most parents don't always realize that they are accidentally rewarding behaviors they don't want, or punishing behaviors that they do want. As a result, parents are often struggling with problem behaviors in their children that they accidentally created. Have you ever seen ways that, by accidental or inappropriate reinforcement or punishment, parents ';train'; their children to have problem behaviors, maybe if people shared their experience other parents would be more apt not to do it.Have you ever seen a parent use inappropriate or accidental actions to train their kids?
I was in a grocery store, and this 14 year old wanted some kind of snack, while her mother was waiting in line, and told her daughter no, so the daughter looked at her and said I will throw a fit if you don't get them for me, and the mother said no, so the daughter started screaming like a three year old would, and the mother said ok, ok. I'll get them. I hate when parents give in, I would of just stood their and purchased my stuff, and let her throw a fit, I know its embarrassing, but this girl has learned if she throws a fit, she gets what she wants, and you see this a lot with parents.Have you ever seen a parent use inappropriate or accidental actions to train their kids?
You dont train kids you teach them. THEY ARE NOT PETS!!!!

Can you drive with a parent in a different state than the one you got the permit in?
I am in a different state visiting relatives and want to drive with my parents, grandparents in this state but don't know if the rules for my permit in the state I got it in are still ok here. In my home state, it says that you can drive your parents, a non family member over 25 with written permission and a family member over 21. Help please! Thanks.Can you drive with a parent in a different state than the one you got the permit in?
it depends on what state you live in and what state you are going to visit. Check the DMV or equivalent websites for both states, or even call the DMVs to find out.Can you drive with a parent in a different state than the one you got the permit in?
If I remember right, my state's learner's permit is not recognized by other states as entitlement to drive there, regardless of who's in the car with you. Check your state's laws before you take the risk of a ticket before you're even licensed, okay?
Yes, same as with a license.
i believe that you can go about anywhere with your parents with the permit but if your with anybody besides your parents (adult) you have to have some sort of note.
really you just need somneone over 21 with a lic and you can drive anywhere you want to go i drove 1000 mile two days after i got mine
no

How do you tell a parent your pregnant?
Hi, Im sixteen and I might be pregnant. How do you tell a parent that you think you might be? My mother who not doing so good is at bed rest(lung cancer) and my father who I don't seem to get alone with to well. I haven't told no one but my boyfriend and i don't think its healthy to do. Im scared but ready to get things off my chest.
Thanks for taking time out to read this.How do you tell a parent your pregnant?
It's a tough thing, but your parents can surprise you. The best thing would be to tell them you need them to sit down and you have something to tell them. 9 times out of 10 they will guess it right then and there. If you are ready, just get it off your chest and do it sooner rather than later. You will feel better after you do - that is for sure. Also, give them time to change their reaction after it sinks in for a few days. Most of the time a bad first reaction will later turn to excitement. Just don't go by their first reaction if it is bad. Be patient and don't do anything rash. Good luck and just do it.How do you tell a parent your pregnant?

What can a non custodial parent claim on taxes?
I have custody of my son and my son's father sees him only twice a month. I have always claimed my son's EIC every year. This year my son's father called and got his social security number. I had already claimed my son for the year. He says there is another way for him to claim a dependent. Is this true?What can a non custodial parent claim on taxes?
You can't both claim him.
Who can claim the child tax credit and dependent care credit?
The parent who claims the exemption for the child is the only parent who can claim the child tax credit. If you are the custodial parent, you can claim the dependent care credit for the child even if you can鈥檛 claim the child鈥檚 exemption. If you are the non-custodial parent, you can鈥檛 claim the dependent care credit even if you can claim the child鈥檚 exemption.
Who gets the dependency exemption for the children?
If both parents contribute at least 陆 of the child鈥檚 living expenses, the custodial parent claims the child as a dependent. If custody hasn鈥檛 been determined or one parent pays the majority of the living expenses for a child and has physical custody for the majority of the year that parent may claim the child as a dependent.
If you are the non-custodial parent and are given the right to claim the child as a dependent you must also fill out a form 8332 from the IRS. This form must be signed by the custodial parent and attached to your income tax return before the IRS will recognize your right to claim the child.What can a non custodial parent claim on taxes?
Looks like your ex got you just like mine got me. And they get away with it. Jennifer
A dependent can only be claimed on one tax return, there is no legal way around that. It sounds like he is going to cause tax trouble for you. I suggest looking up IRS Publication 501 and 503 for full information about who can claim your son as a dependent so you will be prepared if you get a letter from the IRS asking you to prove you are entitled to the exemption.
Yes there is, but from what you say, it probably doesn't apply to him. If there's a court order saying that he can claim him, then he can if the order meets all the IRS rules. Or if you signed WRITTEN permission for him to claim him, then he can. Otherwise not. Don't lose sleep over this one. You might end up with some extra paperwork to do if he submits a return claiming him, but you'll be OK - the IRS might send you a letter asking you to prove your claim - since he's in your custody, is pretty straightforward.
Nope...unless it was stated in your divorce papers that his father gets to claim him (usually it's every other year) then he CAN NOT claim him. If you both claim him, one of you is going to end up having to repay any refund you got. Also, if your ex pays child support %26amp; then gets to claim your son %26amp; get EIC he basically gets back everything he paid in to you. I had it fixed in mine that I was the only one who could claim my son. You should call a tax pro ASAP %26amp; see what you can do.
No, the only way he can claim him is if he has had taken care of him for more than half the year. Or if he has had for 6months only then he can claim half year. But he cannot claim him at all if he has only seen him and not actually cared for him and gfeed and clothed him. Where does the kid live for 50% of the year? If he has lived with you then you are the soul claimer, not your son's father.
you and the person who claimed the dependant will receive a letter stating that 2 people used the dependants social security number, They will ask that both partys submit proof of who was actually eligible to claim the dependant. This can include school records, Dr records, copy of a lease agreement acknowledging that the child lives at the address of record.
The IRS will make a determination of who actually qualifies to claim the dependant. The person who claimed the dependant will then owe back any refund they received in error plus interest and penalties. This also raise a red flag on that persons future tax returns for up to the next 10 years.
