haha...she's not your ex. j/k second wives totally rule!!!! We have examples of how not to act (meaning like your ex). I admire anyone who is a second wife/husband and has to deal with that crap. It takes a special person. And she must really love you!
In the eyes of the church, an annulment essentially means you were never married. Some folks may then consider any children born into the marriage "illegitimate".
Exactly what my ex is trying to say. http://www.stcdio.org/annulment.htm 3. Does an annulment affect the legitimacy of children? No. The legitimacy of children is determined by the laws of the states. Just as a divorce does not make children illegitimate, neither does an annulment granted by the Church. The laws of the Church state that children born of a supposedly valid union are legitimate children. Therefore, if the marriage is later shown to have been invalid, the status of the children remains unchanged: they are legitimate.
Note that I was NOT agreeing with her, simply giving a reason as to why some folks may not want to pursue one.
dude, i wasn't attacking your kid. and i don't think they are worthless. i just feel that generally, kids add another notch to the stress level that i'd rather not deal with.
Yeah, I caught that. I was just saying that was exactly what she was saying. What an idiot. My money she used for her masters degree didn't make her any less ignorant.
Sorry. I just can't imagine a world without my son. I will agree that kids change your life completely, and not everyone is cut out to raise kids. Sorry for tripping.
I'm still confused on why you want the Anulment? Are you just messing with her? The way you phrased it made it seem like that would cut off some money to her somehow.
Hey Falcons Talon, Sorry to here about your ex. I've got a friend who is a good and reasonable family lawyer here in Houston. Feel free to email her at kshotwell@shotwellsmith.com if you need help. Just tell her that you're from the Rockets board
SwoLy you only see what you WANT to see.. Good luck FT I hope everything works out well for you and your son..
A Catholic who has not had an annulment is not seen as "married in the eyes of the church" in a subsequent marriage. In the eyes of the church, they are still married to their first spouse. In the strict sense, they are then commiting adultery if they are in a subsequent marriage.
And they are unable to remarry in the church...my dilemma. I missed out on the church wedding I had always dreamed of b/c of this rule. And like I said before, my husband's ex isn't even catholic anymore. I still can't get past the fact that she got a catholic church wedding and I can't. FT: I'm guessing you and Tara were unable to marry in the church. How did she feel about it?
