Congrats! Happy early graduation!!!!
I dont really know about the letter...When
you go to court, you might wanna bring up
the fact that you guys are going to be
living together, or are living together.
And so he dosent need to pay child support
because he is already supporting you.

Well this paternity thing has now turned
into a big fiasco with heather and i. The
letter clearly states that they need to
establish paternity for the father of the
baby which is me. We have a packet from
the hospital that we never turned in that
will do that which is what they made a
manditory court date for. They say in the
letter that if we dont show up that they
will take away all bennifits aka wic and
medicade and all that stuff, basically
saying that we are screwed. But, all they
want to know is paternity to be
established so they have a father on file
for bennifits and just to be there and
possiably even child support. So that
being said I would say we can just turn in
the packet we got because it provides
everything that they want to know about
the father (me), and everyone else that is
involved. But heather thinks that after
we would turn that packet in that we still
would have to go to the court date even
though it would have been established by
then. The delema is she wont give me the
phone number for the place so I can call
and get it straightened out and shes hung
up on me twice tonight because shes
arguing and mad that I think we dont have
to go. Its not that I dont want to go its
just that it saves me a 200 mile trip when
I dont have to and a day of work if I dont
have to miss. I just want to verify what
can go on then if we do or dont turn the
packet in because to my understanding all
we would need to do is turn the paternity
packet in and notify the wic medicade and
racine county child services office that
we completed the form of voluntary
paternity acknowledgment so theres no need
for a court date to establish whats
already been completed. On the other hand
heather is so pissed off I think because
she thinks that I just dont want to go
with her to court or somthing or that I
dont want mackenzie to have my lastname or
I dont want to be her father, that is in
no way true at all I love mackenzie and
heather with all my heart its just hard to
get accross somtimes especially tonight
because of the mood heather is in. We
just need to both calm down and now that
im sure heather has read this she should
understand what im trying to say without
yelling at eachother and all. What does
anyone else think I should do with the
court date go still or call and find out
what I need to do to not go and still be
good with bennifits and everything? -ryan

I agree, if you can turn in the packet and
not have to go then that would be the
smart thing to do. Going to court costs
money and time...And if you can get out of
it then you should.
As long as thats all they want...

Didnt they give you a voluntary paternity
establishment paper thing at the hospital?
Me and kevin got one, and I believe that
anyone that has a baby thats not married
gets one (or at least suppost to, so the
father can be on the birth certificate)...
But yea, I got them papers, and I had to
have it notarized (sp?) and my mom had to
sign it too, since im a minor. When I
went in for food stamps they told me that
even though me and kevin are living
together, since we are getting help from
the state, he might have to pay child
support, even though we live together, and
I dont want child support. We have an
appointment with the child support agency
to see if they are going to make him. But
the food stamps lady said they ,might not
because of my age (i have no clue why),
and since hes already supporting her and I
have no complaints, but they can do what
they want... I think the state gets some
of the child support money, dont they?
Thats probably a reason why... I dont
know, the child support crap is all messed
up in wisconsin... Legally, im supposed
to be getting my moms child support checks
I think... And also, the state can make
your parents pay you for child support,
for your kid!!! Your kid gets pregnant,
and you gotta pay them money since they
got themselves pregnant under the age
18... Messed up huh?
I hope I was some help, but yea, im sure
you will have no clue at all whats going
on until you go.
P.S. Im gonna make a post about the
state, and pressin charges against
kevin... If you are worried about any of
that, read it.

Right, as long as we can provide them with
anything that they need without having to
go to a court date that would be the ideal
thing to do, its just that heather thinks
because it says in her letter that if we
dont show up that all our bennifits are
taken away. But what that really means is
that if we dont do anything about it and
just not show up because thats how the
courts work.

Wow thats crazy, I just read your post
ryan, I typed mine before I even read
either of your posts... Yes that makes
complete sense to me... For some really
dumb reason, they want to know who the
father is in order for you to get help
from the state, I think it has to do with
dead beat dads, and paying child
support/helping the state pay for the kid.
If it says its for paternity
establishment, just call the people and
find out if you still have to go if you
send in the paternity papers. Im sure at
that appointment(courtdate? Im sorry im
being very forgetful right now) or
whatever, they are just gonna have you two
sign papers and such saying that ryan is
the father, and if your lying that you can
get in alot of trouble and blah blah blah,
and if your not sure, then to take a
paternity test so you dont lie and blah
blah blah...

Ryan & heather- yep, you both need to
calm down and get this taken care of!
That is the biggest thing right now. I
think if you go to court and tell them
what is going on, ryan won't have to pay
child support, if heather doesn't want him
too, since you both will be living
together in a few weeks.
Heather-congradulations girl!!! I am so
happy you get to move in with ryan soon,
because that means that I will get to see
you so much more, since you will leave
even closer to me, yay!!!
