florida. my husband and i live in florida. his ex wife lives in pennsylvania. the original custody agreement was made in new jersey. both children had always lived with their mother. upon her moving to pa we moved to florida. last year the oldest son decided to live with us, and has been with us for over a year with the mothers consent. courts were not involved.
now, the younger son age 14, wants to live with us as well. his mother will not allow it. and she is threatening to take us to court if we do not send him back at the end of summer vacation.
when the older son, now age 15, moved in with us he was a failing student, and had many discipline problems while living with his mother. since he's been with us his grades have improved dramatically and we have had no discipline problems at all.
the children tell us that their mothers husband is emotionally and verbally abusive, and that is the main reason they want to live with us. she denies this abuse and stands by her husband.
is there any way we can resolve this matter in the state of florida, without having a costly legal battle?
