    Hey MrsMac?
    I am not on this site very often, and i dont know how to PM people. Can i have some contact details? An email or something? I would really like to know how to get this sorted, and if you have done it before im hoping you can give me some details as to how to go about it.
    Thanks so much.

    alyce you cannot Private Message until you have 25 posts.
    my mother had to take it to court even when my father hadnt seen me for 4 years.
    he contested it but it was overruled on account of the not seeing me thing.

    We changed the girls names when they were 4 and 6..just in time for school, but we did have to get their biodad to sign that this was ok. We added my husbands name so they have both, acknowledging bio dads name but also keeping ours all the same by adding my married name.
