*Wow! Look at her face when CPS said there was no substantiation of any abuse or neglect! Mom is a real piece of work!* *I suspect an inspection of her call records would show **_frequent_** calls to a CPS reporting likr! - she's giving off the "Kid Is My Path To Revenge" vibe, and that's a **_warp volume._** I hate it when parents use their kids as weapons like this.*
What exactly is so horrible about this mother? She’s said several times the father is more than welcome to the child any time he wants. He can come to their home and she even let her go to the hotel to see him. It would be irresponsible for her not to worry about the father’s circumstances.
Mom is a control freak! She wants him to visit at HER house (well, her father's house) or not at all. Dad's doing the best he can and should have visitation.
If it took three hours to calm the child down, it’s because of mom’s example of over exaggeration of everything. 30 years of working with kids. Kids perform the way adults want them to.
Oh yea. Is that why my sister made straight A’s yet my brother went under the house where our dad was sitting and lit the house on fire? If you’ve worked with kids over 30 years you’d know that they have free will. Some kids have the most responsible and loving parents yet turn out to be shitty adults. My grandmother never drank or smoked. I’ve never heard her curse and I’m 34. She bends over backwards for everyone and is always honest. The epitome of what a grandmother should be. Yet my mom and aunt both turned out to be drug addicts and not there for their kids. You blaming parents for other’s mistakes is the problem. Everyone is responsible for their own actions. I had a crappy childhood yet I’m a great mother. Same with my kid’s father. Everyone is different and situations affect them differently so you can’t say the daughter being upset for 3 hours is the mom’s fault.
@@tellmeaboutit9975 You're speech in no way takes away the very valid point of the OP's comment. Kids do pick up on emotions and they way adults handle things, they learn by observation among other ways. This is why when a mom drops her kids off at dad's and she makes a big deal, gets emotional, over extends the goodbye's, makes it seem like she's never going to see that child again, the kids will tend to kick and scream and cry. Mother's who use their kids know this. I have seen it done. When you are calm and reassuring the child is as well. Just like when my son would be dropped off at preschool, with my mom he was crying, kicking screaming because he knew my mom hated to leave him. He knew he could get away with it. With me I would drop him off say a quick good bye, see you later, love you and leave. Smiling and happy the whole time. Never had an issue.
At the original court hearing, I was on dad's side, as each hearing went on, I started to doubt him, but still thought the mom may be a good manipulator by acting like she's all for his rights, but she started to sound reasonable while he started to flip flop on things, so in the end, the judge made the right decision to give her temporary control over visiting time until he gets his $#!+ together.
And, his situation becomes more unstable as the hearings progress. By the 3rd one, the child was sleeping in a chair in a motel room, IIRC. I don't think Mom's concerns were unfounded either. It's really too bad Michael Paige stopped streaming a couple weeks after the 3rd hearing so we don't get any more updates. I hope everything worked out for the child. Thanks, so much for watching!
Yeah, I'm with you on this. Also, I don't think she was trying to mislead anyone. I think she didn't quite understand how these things work in court and she's just really worried about her child. I would be hesitant too if I had a child whose father had been out of the picture, then 2 weeks after he's out of jail decides he wants to pop back in. I hope it's not his girlfriend pushing for this. It often is and the dad isn't quite ready yet. She seems open to him being in her daughter's life, but this is too fast and too soon.
Unfortunately dad wasn’t there to defend himself the last hearing and mom took advantage of it. I kinda think she exaggerates things. I don’t believe it took three hrs to calm the daughter. When my children were young, they invited their friends on weekend trips with us. We had 4-6 kids in the hotel. We brought extra blankets and made beds on the floor. They loved it.
I’m so glad I found this rare tiny thread that shares the opinion of mom not being the issue here. I just heard the judge let dad interrupt repeatedly with a “do you have a job?” Then judge Paige stopped her to repeat that same jab question. Who is the felon here? Who has a home and concern for the child? I don’t understand why every vile comment is directed at a mother, yet very few even mention dad or refer him as victim. My hope in human kindness and common sense had dwindled every time I see a yt situation like this.
Do people not understand how rude it is to interrupt? Especially to interrupt a judge, commissioner, or person of authority who is deciding such serious matters.
Dad is floating. Mom is absolutely correct. Get your act together. Get a job. Get some money. Get a place of your own. Get a car. Get furniture for your daughter. Get some toys and books. Get your act together, Dad. Your selfishness is absolutely astounding. You have the one quality that all ex-addicts have and must tame before they can say that they will never relapse: IMPATIENCE. What's the hurry? That little girl does not deserve to be in ex-addict limbo. She is going to take that little girl to a HOTEL? Are you kidding? Shame on the judge. He needs to familiarize himself with newly-recovered addicts. Lack of discipline and impatience is what the judge should be looking for. He should always as the question: so, what's the hurry? Do you consider yourself fully recovered? Do you still have cravings? If they say they are fully recovered with zero cravings, deny all their requests and tell them why.
She wants perfection for dad. Dad should be able to pick up daughter and spend time with her alone and drop her back home. Mom wants visitation at her dad's house as if it's hers.
I cant stand moms smug attitude. She just wants to control every second of dads time with daughter. In my opinion people in glass houses shouldnt throw stones cause id bet her life isnt so perfect. I think she is forming the daughters opinion of dad.
Maybe go watch the video regarding the Mom and Grandmother who ran a scam and removed a little girl from the father who had full temporary custody due to the mother's horrible drug addiction. People who are involved with drugs OR are involved with a drug addict dream up all sorts of schemes regarding children. Mom is correct. Dad calls. Do not involve the girlfriend in the middle of that relationship. She has no standing whatsoever to call and ask if HIS child can come for a visit.
@@lilibetmargaret If the mom thought some random stranger was calling to come pick up her daughter, she would have called the police... the entire point is that she knew it was the girlfriend.
Mom making faces during the time dad's speaking isn't really helping her credibility, if that's what she's thinking, dad was at least able to sit and just listen to her when she talked... Also, mom seems mostly concerned about her own reputation. IF mom was truthful, that was probably the best decision! Another thing, I'm sorry but this channel seems somewhat bias with the comments in this case... Which freedom of speech and all that ofc but, yeah. I'd like to see the comments if dad called cps worker "sweetie" 😂
@@NosillampI'm not sure what you're saying but I doubt the comment would say "I do that accidently sometimes too" if it would have been dad saying it.
Her daughter needs to know you cant always get what you want. Maybe her daughter senses her Mom's attitude. Mom doesnt even live by herself nor have a job. Sorry but kids need to kearn that now as long as they are not getting abused.
If the girlfriends parents have offered rhem a cabin then they have somewhere to go and do not need emergency housing. It is for those who have no one and no resources.
Mom sounds like she wants dad back, you can come come to my house any time you want, but it's not really my house I live with my dad. I guess I'm a little bias, I have 2 sons that have gone through this crap.
gosh starting off with 'someone advised me to say that my child being only in my custody is not something i want' is such a weird way to words 'i want all the control in this situation'
Life happens. What is the big deal? Why try to give dad a hard time? Would mom feel more comfortable if dad was living with his parents? She's doesn't have her stuff together either. She's just living off someone else.
The judge told her that her notarized papers were hearsay, not people testifying. She is annoyingly smug, and the whole “sweetie” to the DCF worker was a huge ick.
39:44 ma'am, I'm sure it wasn't "civilly" that you tried to contact him considering you talk down to him, the judge, tried to lie about cps, still having issues with her safety even though the cps investigation was done and the house was cleared of any wrongdoing. Mom wants to do this her way and only her way. She brings the child into this constantly, all her testimony is mainly hearsay. Dad has messed up but he's getting through it. Mom needs to up her happy pills.
😲 she's a liar! She knows good and damn well he said the affidavits were hearsay, then she said they're notarized, and he said u can notarize anything! Wow....what changed????
Thank you! It's been a while since we've seen Referee Paige at work. I think his Friend of Court work gets sent up to Judge Kirkham's circuit Court so it's fun when Paige shuts them down nicely, they go in front of Kirkham who shuts them down more conclusively 😉
It's the second hearing and he looks like he's using. Big time nystagmus! Go back to the start of the video through the swearing in. He can't control his eyes - they're darting around, side to side and up and down. And it continues throughout. And he didn't show up for the third hearing because he knows he's losing his daughter and he's a coward. Didn't want to face the Commissioner. I'd bet cash money he's still using. Mom needs to stop bringing so nice.
These women are becoming more and more unhinged. Nothing will change until they're held accountable like they should be and not treated with kid gloves all the damn time. Stop treating them like they're children and treat them like the adults they are.
This poor little girl, she has grandpa and mom working on her and not being very good to the father. I know that they are under oath, but people don't thimk that means them
She apparently misheard the judge, he said a piece of paper can't be cross examined so it would have to come from the person, live in court and not an affidavit, even a notorized testimony because notorized just means it was that exact person who signed it.
Is mom on something? Her eyes, speech pattern and movements are suspicious. Plus she can't stop herself from talking. I'm surprised the judge doesn't notice or care about her over talking him and interrupting him.
"It's not about keeping her from him"! Lady, it's EXACTLY about keeping her from him!! 🤬 .....it's all about control with her, obviously. What father would want to go to his ex's house to spend his parenting time there? This woman is very passive aggressive!!!
Mom comes across as gruff but I think it's because she is genuinely concerned about what might happen while the little girl is with dad. Dad is minimizing how much of a hot mess his life seems to be but his living situation seems sketchy. I suspect that dad and his GF were involved in a polyamorous situation that went pear shaped and they got kicked out of wherever they were living with no notice. A sketchy, unstable life. If I were mom, I'd be cautious too.
Two low-functioning adults had sex and a child resulted. Neither biological parent is stable. Dad resides in a hotel while Mom claims residence with her parent. Both cancel one another out. The child is loved by both parents, undoubtedly. However. Neither parent has proven capable of providing financial stability or a home for the child. Elevating Mom’s credibility or allowing emotional sway has no place in court.
@@darleneww3670Living with grandparents as a permanent living situation is a lot more stable than "living" out of a motel. Multi-generational homes are becoming more of the norm again, as it always has been more internationally. Single parents often need help and support and living with grandparents can be the next best thing to living with a spouse.
@lulu5803 I'm an Italian-American who was raised in a multigenerational household -- but not under these circumstances. My parents were married, worked each day, and raised me and my siblings while our grandparents lived in OUR home it was the first home bought in the US by any member of our family. Suffice to say, the dynamics were much different. My parents took care of their parents, not the other way around. As kids, we had our grandparents 24/7 and we're as close to them as our parents. I can't relate to this familial situation. Mom lives in her parent's home while actively seeking to control and interfere with Dad having a relationship with their biological child. Also, if not for Mom living under her parent's roof, she'd be in the exact situation Dad is in being essentially homeless, living in a motel or hotel with the same child.
I love and miss michael paige! These two involve the daughter too much in all this. My daughter says this, she says that. Jesus the both need to grow up and be parents.
Mum seems very plssed off she has to keep her own child. She's mentioned couple of times about not wanting her full time and she just seems so angry when she talks about the daughter having to stay with her. Also I took different dr'ugs during my 20s (clean for 11yrs now though) and she seems like she's on uppers, her widened eyes and so damn fidgety. Yes, it can be because she's, but I'm not sure that's the reason. I hope dad gets his life sorted and gets his kiddo back asap.
Yes! Im in recovery and was thinking the exact same thing about her being on some type of stimulants. It's especially obvious in the beginning before she started talking, she was looking like a bug 👀
Hey question for Michiganders if you're a Judicial Referee like Mr Paige here or a magistrate, i know you have to be a licensed attorney, but is that a full time job or is it like an internship where it's part time but since you're on the bench you shouldn't be actively representing clients in cases so you're kind of stuck as judge in training?
Not from Michigan, but I think it’s CRAZY that other places in the United States allow people to become magistrates without having a law degree. I feel that’s the reason so many people have to appeal just to get the correct judgment in a lot of cases in other states.
That poor child is stuck between a rock and a hard place! Dad needs to grow up and get a stable place to live so his daughter can spend quality time with him. Mom, remove that ugly black thing on your chest!
Mom acts like she doesn't really want her daughter but feels like she has to say she fears for her daughter. If she was that worried she would fight harder to keep her away from Dad. Mom is a nightmare.🙄 Their poor child! What a mess for parents but at least Dad is getting his crap together. Mom is looking like she has a hot date for last court! Thinks she looks more mature, I guess. 🤷 Mom just floors me with her demands on Dad but she lives with HER Dad, no job and Grandpa taking care of them and she is in a better place?? 😂 What kid doesn't like sleeping in a hotel? I have a hard time believing she slept in a chair since they can ask for a cot. I think Mom has the issue not the kid.
The fact that this mom thinks she's any better than dad is CRAZY!!!! Ma'am if it wasn't for your father your kid would be just as unstable... You don't work or have your on place....Your father is allowing himself to be used by raising YOU and the kids!! SMH and you can't even be bothered to atheist work and help out...
Mom's smug and nasty attitude towards the court is awful. I mean I understand her concerns, but it's not going to help you in the eyes of the court to act like that.
Really? You took that as snug and nasty? I just saw someone who was looking out for their kid and wanted her kids dad to get back on his feet before making too many promises.
Nice mom, liw fut top showing tattoo is not good for Court☹️. Moms smile is not good either. Oops mom taking back to the Judge is not a good idea. Cute mom, smiling about her daughter having no complaints.?
