What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Michigan.
2 months ago I walked into my ex's room to find her and a few of her friends smoking pot. meh, whatever you know. but my son was in there too! i was furious. this is never ok. and to make it worse he has to have daily breathing treatments. maybe this is the reason why?
anyways, she has sole legal custody so i panicked and didnt know what to do. i wanted to just take him and leave. but i called cps. a couple of weeks later they drug tested her and she tested positive for weed. i only know this because she called my mom to tell her to tell me i better watch my back and told her thats why. anyways, after that i get a letter in the mail saying they closed her case.
heres some background info on my ex. shes 20. has never had a job in her life. she lives in a subsidized apartment that costs her $15 a month. i pay 370/ month in child support. she also gets 400 in welfare and 500 in food stamps. she just bought a new cadillac and top of the line cellphone. she can also obviously afford to buy pot! and a few nights ago she called to ask me for money.
i havent seen my son in over 2 months. neither has any of my family members. i know shes upset that i recently married someone else, but thats her own problem. not a reason to keep my son from his dad and other family.
my wife and i are pretty set finacially. not that we never struggle, but we do ok to make ends meet and still have a good time. we are both responsible adults. we have space for him in our home. we have a bed for him and everything.
whats it going to take to get custody of my son? i want full custody cuz im worried about his health. but i will take my parenting time for the time being and keep fighting if i have to.What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)?
