IRS law states that the person who has more custody of the child claims them on their income taxes unless it has been agreed in court documents, or in written agreements between the parents. So, in a nutshell, if you don't have it in writing that you have authority to do so, you are not allowed to claim your child on your taxes. Sorry!
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
