    HI everyone, I know that I don't post too much but today is a big day for me. I go to the lawyers office to start the adoption proceedings, my current hubby wants to adopt the kids I had with my ex. Part of what worries me is I have heard that my ex is back in the fold. Yep apparently he is a JW again!!! His family is soooooo controlling.

    In the past he has threatened to kill me, they have threatened to take my kids, all sorts of things. He hasn't paid his child support in over 2 years!

    Thanks for listening, sometimes writing helps.

    This is wonderful news! All I can say regarding your ex and his family is that I hope you have a permanent restraining order against all of them from contacting you or your children.

    Your children deserve to have a positive male role model in their lives. It sounds like hubby is all that and so much more.

    Love, Scully

    Diana, Good Luck today. Remember that what you are doing is to save your family. I don't know Canadian law but, if he hasn't paid child support for 2 yrs(this shows he has already abandoned them) AND IF the new hubby has been supporting the kids then you shouldn't have a problem. However in the US grandparents now have a say-so with the kids so they may be able to ruffle your feathers, but whatever if you all stick together you will do fine. I think you and your kids and the new Dad will do just fine. {{{hugs from Panda}}}

    Good luck! If your ex is going back in, it's all the more reason to proceed with the adoption.

    Good luck, Diana. I agree with Six. Yikes, don't let your kids get near that cult! high control group.
