I live in Arkansas and I am the Godmoter of 2 small children. The boy is almost 3 and the girl is 18 months. Their parents do not take care of them, sell food stamps, don't work or provide for their children, etc. I have cared for these children on more than one occassion with serious illnesses (headlice, scabees, sever diper rashes, malnurished, etc.) for months at a time with no word from the parents. They do not visit, call, or support the children in any way, shape, or form. The parents have had DHS called on them in both OK and AR. They would shape up till the investigation was over, and then it would all start over again. I love these kids and want the best for them, even if that means that they go into foster care and I never see them again. But, I want to try and get custody of them both. How would I go about doing that? The parents are still legally married, but have been seperated for nearly a year. They try to use the children to hurt eachother, and hurt the children in the process. The father (22) is now ingaged and living with a young woman who he tells the kids to call "mama." The mother (19) is about 3 months pregnat with someonelses child, living with 2 widely know potheads; one is her boyfriend who can not have children and the other is a bisexual who can; in an old, small 2 bedroom mobile home with no job or transportation. I know for a fact that she does not bathe and has headlice. These children need help before it is too late, and DHS has done nothing to correct this problem. What Can I Do?!?!
