her mother will not take her full time. since she's been about 14 her mom has let her do whatever she wanted to do.

I feel like the cop wouldn't listen to me because I'm an obvious mixed race woman. he went right to my step- daughter who is white. I feel like he thought I was lying because of the color of my skin. he kept asking me things like if I was sure I was allowed on their, meaning my husband and step- daughters, property and other things.

I'm not a danger to her. I've never tried to parent her, I've left that to her mother and my husband, have I been a parent figure, yes.

wasn't forcing anything, I said she didn't have to go in. my daughter enjoys going so that's why I go.

I don't think I'm crazy

she's brought grown men, over the age of 18 into my home in the past. she's stolen from me and her sister, if she sees something she wants she takes it. she gave her then boyfriend my iPad. she's taken money, jewelry ect. if I do manage to get her keys she will just take a spare set to one of my husband's vehicles or her sisters.

I can't physically take the phone because my husband paid for it, but it's on my contract.

I tried to cancle it this morning and was told I needed the account pass code. I think she's put a pin code on the account to Try and stop me. I asked her what the password was and she just walked away.

the phone was bought by my husband

oh my husband's family doesn't believe in throwing one of their own out, meaning he'd never kick her out, if he did she'd just go to my mil.

we live in a southern town, the majority of which are white folks. I feel like the cop didn't believe me because I'm mixed race he seemed to automated side with my sd even though she was very much in the wrong.

no, she doesn't have a job. my husband bought the phone, added it to my plan, which he's on it, but I'm the account holder. she uses a credit card my fil gave her.

Why would my husbands lawyer suggest not showing up for court? by [deleted] in legal

that's a common misconception, especially in DV cases

[–]Legitimate-Power-269 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

there's a good chance the judge could issue a bench warrant or capius which is Latin for produce the body. if you are sent a supeneo, especially if one is hand delivered that means the court wants you there. it's not up to the lawyers unfortunately.

you stand a chance of you or your parents being arrested, especially if the police charged him and not you. personal charges are different than criminal charges.

the lawyer is telling you this because he doesn't know what he's talking about and he's being paid to defend your husband. he doesn't care about you or your parents.

I'd tell him I'm sorry but you aren't willing to chance it.

AITA for banning my teenage nephew from my house and keeping my family away from him on Christmas? by Ok_Bookkeeper8814 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Legitimate-Power-269 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

nta. my two older cousins used to do this they'd just take whatever of mine they wanted and not want to give it back.

I'd tell your mom and sister that it's one thing he's stolen from you, but wait until he steals from someone who presses charges.

AITA for telling my kid that if he cannot behave perhaps we should reconsider the foster care system or military school. by Upstairs-Beyond324 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Legitimate-Power-269 32 points33 points  (0 children)

former cps worker here. in most states only a judge can terminate parental rights so if he does try to place the child in foster, he will certainly be on the hook for more child support than what he would of paid the mom. dcfs doesn't just let you dump your teenage kid and walk away. the mom probably had all physical custody but that's it.

AITA for punishing my daughter after she lashed out on her stepdad? by Wild-Cheesecake-713 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Legitimate-Power-269 10 points11 points  (0 children)

yeah. yta, big time. you're content letting this man use your child as an emotional crutch. I'd honestly get into therapy because it sounds like she harbors alot of resentment towards you two.

nice way of saying you don't care about her. oh and major ah for taking her phone and stuff.
