Well it's that time of year for school performances and next week I've got my daughters,
Like normal my ex is kicking off saying she's not doing it as I'm going on a different day to my ex, she's saying the only way she will do it is if my ex gets her own way and we go on the same day,
Now she's also saying about making my oldest 2 children my daughters legal gardians because my ex has got an op coming up and is worried she might not come out of it (it's nothing serious but like normal she's making a big deal out of it)
Is there anything I can do to stop this happening as my ex is doing it to stop me having my rights to my daughter.
hello, do you have parental responsibility for the child i.e, named on the birth certificate
Hello, yes I do, I also have 50/50 parental responsibility not that she will allow me to see my daughter.
I'm pretty sure making them guardians would require your agreement, it wouldn't be a matter of just signing something, that wouldn't have any legal standing, to make it legal it would have to be court ordered I think, so I wouldn't worry too much about it to be honest... let her carry on with herself and just rise above it.
Brilliant thank you very much for that.
yeah i cant see her having any chance of that because if anything happened to her, you are your childs legal guardian by having parental responsibility
Thank you, I didn't think she could but just needed advice on it.
Perhaps confirm this with someone like the Child Law Clinic or your local CAB.
