Help please. I need to know it anyone knows anything about child endangerment.<BR>I picked up my child today and found my child outside, alone, crying. My spouse was no where to be found.<BR>We are in the process of divorcing and right now have determined our own visitation schedule. <BR>I do not want my spouse to see my child again because of this. My spouse told my that it was not big deal. My child did not want to go inside with them and they would only be gone a moment?<BR>I would NOT tolerate this from any other care taker, I certainly shouldn't have to tolerate this from a wayward spouse.<BR>Can anyone help me?<P>

Just so you know I am on the right forum, my spouse has been involved in an extra marital relationship since February. They are still very involved.<BR>

OK - I agree. Your little one is definitely too young to be alone - in or outside of the house. <P>This is an attorney thing. And document, document, document!!!<P>Lori

I read your post, and I didn''t ignore you, I just couldn't tell you anything because I've never been in that situation. <P>It does sound like child endangerment, but I don't know the legalities, where you are in divorce process, etc. and didn't want to give you advice. <P>Sometimes weekend nights are really slow. That doesn't mean that people don't care or are ignoring your post. I know, when you need help, it sometimes seems like that.<P>For the record, I agree that it's VERY BAD that your child was left alone and crying...<P>------------------<BR>Marriage: the most important contract you'll ever enter into, and the most sacred.<BR>

Butiloveu<P>First thoughts are to call your lawyer. If there is no-one available consider this:<P>If a child was abandoned outside your home and was crying what would you do? What if you knew the parents and they didn't care? I think you would call the police. They would call some kind of Social Services Agent and protect the child. This would be documented and result in serious charges for the parents involved. <P>I would ask the police who the right authorities are to report about an abandoned child, perhaps implying that it happened to someone else (no names), that it's OK now but if it happened again who should you call and what would happen to the child.<P>------------------<BR>It's always darkest before the dawn
