I'm not sure if it's normal.AZOldCoot wrote: ↑Tue Aug 16, 2022 6:58 pm Honestly, in knowing nothing about divorce and family court, is it normal and customary for a minor child to have their own copy of the court paperwork? (OP's second paragraph states that child has her own copy).
Outside of the chores, which really isn't a hardship IMO, why is the girl scared of her BM? How is the BM's significant other mean to her?
My kids weren’t given a copy of our divorce decree and paperwork. My ex and I got one and so did my lawyer. My ex and I told the boys they’d live with me and see dad on a set schedule, etc. We abided buy it with some changes over the years. I don’t remember if visitation and child support ended at 18 or high school graduation. I believe 18. My ex died before then so it didn’t matter. I guess if my kids wanted to see the visitation paperwork I’d shown it but they never asked and I don’t have it now. Perhaps if there’s a guardian a litem then kids get their own paperwork. In our case the custody was uncontested and so not needed.AZOldCoot wrote: ↑Tue Aug 16, 2022 6:58 pm Honestly, in knowing nothing about divorce and family court, is it normal and customary for a minor child to have their own copy of the court paperwork?

It's not typical, no. And even less typical is being able to read and interpret it. That said, if I had wanted a copy of it, I could have rifled through my parents things and found it. I always knew where they kept important paperwork.AZOldCoot wrote: ↑Tue Aug 16, 2022 6:58 pm Honestly, in knowing nothing about divorce and family court, is it normal and customary for a minor child to have their own copy of the court paperwork?
