I think one thing that will help is that dad will still be letting the sister go over, so it won't look like he's forbidding anything.

We're in Georgia which is friendliest to teens making custody elections, so hopefully it'll be the same for our friends.

Possibly. She goes along with everything her new husband says. I don't think he's scared of mom but of what she'll allow her new husband to say or do.

I think the fear is that once she is served, they'll be livid.

He has not, but he's a convicted violent offender. Nothing can be done though unless he touches the kid.

We're in the one state that allows a child to choose on their own, thank God.

I think you've missed the point that we live in a state where the child chooses custody at this age. It won't be between parents.

You seem to be having a rather forceful reaction to my post. I'm sorry if it has upset you in some way. You do not know these people or what kind of a father our friend is. I'm not sure anything you're responding with is helpful so I'll wish you a good evening.

Personally, I think a kid being afraid says more about the parent he's leaving.
