[QUOTE="nlj, post: 640240, member: 17650"] I have a lot of experience of Family Court and County Court in the UK due to the situation with my own youngest step-daughter. I'm afraid that my experience has been that, as a step-parent, you are pretty invisible and I wasn't allowed in to any of the court hearings. All legal dealings will be with your husband. My role, I felt, was just to be there and support my husband and show that there was a strong bond and a safe happy home with us for her. (The situation was completely different as it was about protecting her from her birth-mother). You seem to be doing a lot of the work that your husband should be doing. [/QUOTE]
