Post: ex spouse overstepping his boundaries
Posted by S G on 7/03/11
Divorced,one child from that marriage (10yo), two children are not (18yo and 15yo). Went out of town for one week, left 15 yo home to supervise himself with "nearby" adults checking in on him. Ex husband (not father of 15yo) came to my home, threatened child protective services and/or police stating this was illegal for 15yo to be there alone. Made 15yo leave with him. Left my dog unattended for 2 days inside home. Refused to bring 15yo back unless he "approved" of my new arrangements. I arranged for my 18yo daughter to stay with 15yo at my home, exhusband said he didn't "know" whether or not she had legal right to be there so he called my leasing office and they released info to him regarding whom is listed on my lease. Throughout this ordeal, I received several threatening emails regarding police involvement to foster care. The ex said more than once that he was within his legal rights to do all of this. I was very careful (I thought) before I left town and checked CO law regarding leaving a minor at home. Besides the fact that he is not his parent, did he have any legal rights to do all these things and if not..what can I do to prevent this in the future?
