[QUOTE="Copabanana, post: 705733, member: 18958"] Let me see if I understand: Your ten year old son lives with his mother and her mother and a baby who is his half sibling. His mother is angry because the 10 year old, your son, has a disrespectful attitude, and you infer this is related to the fact that your ex had a baby from another man while married to you, or shortly after. Your ex seems to be alleging abuse but it is not clear who is the abuser and who has been abused. Is your ex alleging that your 10 year old has abused the baby? Is she alleging that the 10 year old hurt or will hurt the baby? Or is she saying the 10 year old has been abused? If so, by whom? I am not an attorney nor am I in any way knowledgeable about CPS. Each of these options that I am guessing at entail radically different circumstances and courses of action. If your ex is falsely alleging that the 10 year old abused her other child, this is itself an act of abuse, I would believe. Is she intimating that you planted this thinking in your child's mind? And is she now targeting your child? All of this would be deeply concerning. Parents have legal and moral obligations to care for their children until they are legally grown, in most cases. If I am understanding correctly, this might be child abandonment, if she follows through. You cannot kick out a 10 year old, at least where I live. For disrespect or any other reason. Where do you fit into this? Is this retaliation in this way against you? Where is the 10 year old getting ideas about what is immoral or improper sexual or marital behavior by adult parents? That is the other concerning thing. Because a 10 year old child does not have the mental or emotional maturity, the necessary development to understand, much less judge or evaluate conduct of this sort, unless an adult has been coaching him. That in itself could be considered to be harmful to the child. You may need or want to engage a Family Law Attorney. And you might also want to consider a therapist for your child. Because if I have understood what is happening, your son may well be in distress. I am sorry you find yourself in this difficult and trying situation. Keep posting. It helps. It is a slow time just now, because it is late. Others will post in the morning. [/QUOTE]
