ok i was going to post here in hopes someone knew what my mom/me could do about a little issue my parents are divorced but my dad will not provide my mom the dental insurance information despite the fact that he is required to according to the divorce agreement. However my mom does not have money to afford a lawyer. My mom was worried even if she did hed counter sue for her breaking the agreement as me and my brother are signed on as under duel custody however we are both over 16 and have been staying with my mom for over a year. I really dont want my teeth to rot so what the heck can we do.... i got in a big argument with him because he made an appt for me demanded he take me even though i had another appt scheduled plus my new possible BF was coming over that day. And when i mentioned i had read the agreement and new he was supposed to provide it to my mom he just went whatever and such. He then also claimed he had stepped up and had it put on the agreement that he was going to pay for my health insurance (which is actually something the court required him to do).....:help::help::help::help:
As a fellow child of divorcees I can relate. My father was supposed to provide insurance for all three of his children to my mother; he hasn’t done so in over 3 years. My mom has taken him to court several times, without results. He recently fled to North Carolina to remarry, but that’s irrelevant. Has your mom tried speaking with the Domestic Relations department yet? In my state they handle the fine print of the divorce and all things relating to the children of divorced parents. If he is paying child support through the Domestic Relations department they should see to it that he provides minimum insurance. That’s how PA works anyway.
