[QUOTE="dstc_99, post: 572788, member: 15473"] Ok so as of the 4th my daughter is no longer living with me. My parents have taken her to live in their home and after much struggle her father and I have decided to allow her to stay. We are in the process of transfering guardianship so that she can attend school where they are. My question is this... How do I do this? Do I treat it like visitations? How do you treat visitations? It feels odd? Her father is set to come home on Saturday and she has stated that she wants to be there. I have no problem with that they need to see each other. My problem is do I just let her come home and pretend like nothing has happened? Do I allow her to spend the weekend even though she doesn't plan to follow our guidelines? Should I make her stay the night in a hotel instead of in my home? Should I make her return to my parents on Saturday night? She has not seen her father in 9 months and I dont want to make this any more difficult than it is. I want them to have time together to reconnect and really feel like she should be there to see him Saturday and Sunday. On the other hand I do not want to be a pushover or be disrespected in my home. The problem is that I don't know where to draw these boundaries since this is new to me. I could use suggestions. TIA [/QUOTE]
