[QUOTE="Mikey, post: 145025, member: 3579"] Trinity, I'm not sure I meant actually [B]making[/B] him honor any such obligations. I was intimating that if he [I]isn't[/I] meeting those obligations, then it could make it easier for boyfriend - husband or no - to be superseded by a guardian with Jess' best interests at heart (i.e., her parents). Alternatively, if someone were to remind him that he doesn't just get to pet the cat, but will also be held [B]accountable[/B] for "emptying the litterbox", then he might be a bit more agreeable. Might not be a need to follow through, but a truthful reminder of how the situation IS - and that he's not necessarily holding all the cards - may make him more amenable. Mikey [/QUOTE]
