Guest guest Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Ethics regarding accusations: I was told by the Dr who wrote the Declaration against me that he " has to believe him {child} until he is proven otherwise. " Is this in fact the ethical requirement for a psychologist? I explained to him that there is a difference between " taking it seriously " as in, really checking out the situation, and " believing " as in making a judgment of the veracity. Also: I have him on tape admitting --that he never spoke with me before concluding and writing his declaration. --that he never requested documentation from the father concerning his allegations about me. --that he has never contacted the professionals who were eye witnesses of me and my son during the time period in question. He has also talked with his attorney, and as of yesterday, he will no longer tape the conversations. I suppose I will have to take a witness in next time? Suggestions?

Guest guest Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Ann, I probably shouldn't be saying this but I think your grandson's birthday has been for 4 months. Sorry I feel this way, but I am just so depressed over all I'm going thru that I'm lately just laying the cards on the table. My daughter forgot Fathers Day and her Grandmothers birthday because " if she isn't getting the gifts it doesn't matter to her " . Well her birthday is coming up. Should it matter to us?

Guest guest Posted June 24, 2004 Report Share Posted June 24, 2004 Hi Ann, I hope you are not even thinking about giving him any money. In my opinion over the next few days you need to decide what the rules in YOUR house will be and let him decide if he can live with them rather than the other way around. Didn't say it will be easy but believe me it feels so much better to be the one in charge in your own house. Best of luck, Connie --- Ann2079@... wrote: > My grandson will be released from jail on Friday. > He called this week to ask > for his birthday money which is not until July 15th! > Then he said his mother > and I are setting him up to fail if we don't give > him $100 each for this > birthday!
