Shes actually SO EMBASSING like a fecking love sick puppy she wouldn't know what a single parent was or a days work for that matter if it was stuck to the bottom of her manky airfryer...I physically wouldn't be able to vegetate on the sofa for 10 days obv if I had an injury or after surgery I'd have no choice but to just take it upon myself and aren't the sisters just as big of ejits encouraging her with flowers and pyjamas. Get a grip. If the whole brian bringing her to court thing is true then she's in for some land. She will not qualify for legal aid with all her disposable income and 2 employments *winky face* I had to take my pity of a children's father to court and in about a year and half going round in circles I have given my solicitor about 2,500k between appointments, letters, court and were back to square 1 now because he can't stick to 2 days a month but that's besides the point. Now she can choose to represent herself but id imagine that wouldn't go very well judging her public speaking history

Judges do not give a fiddlers about he said, she said. They won't tolerate it.
ALL her means will be assessed, as will Brian's. Chances are they will put a maintenance order in place based on what they feel he can afford and that will be counted as means on her end so her social will be cut

She won't be able to dictate because there'll be an order in place and both parents have to stick to it. He may request guardianship as unmarried father's do not automatically have it in ireland and that will entitle him to be involved in all their child's important decisions school, medical stuff and consent for passport forms ect. Now she can refuse that but it would go against her very much so . Also if brian has access to lukes birth cert&pps no and is caring for him for whatever the amount of time required to be eligible he can actually claim for him and she wouldn't like that. It would be very unlikely that they'll put a permanent order in place first time, mainly because its a money racket but also because they have to be seen following a temporary (interim order) for x amount of weeks to show they can co parent. Now I don't know maybe Brian is as useless as my own children's father but dealing with Sarah must be hard work and she deserves someone official to put her in her place and let her realise that she doesn't call all the shots. A father has just as much right to be part of a child's life as a mother, Its just such a shame there seems to be alot more useless than good ones about.
