Divorce was final 06/2007. My oldest daughter never wanted to live with mom. She was 12 then, and now 14. Will be 15 in June 2009. I didn't fight for custody at first because was all as parents want a divorce as least of a problem for the kids. Well, that's wrong thinking. The mother was re-married 50 days after divorce. Now they both drink, smoke, use profanity, all in the house with my 14f, 9f, and 6m kids... Now they are so busy my 14yo cooks, does homework, and dresses her siblings. She wants to live with me. What are the procedures. She files a notarized affidavit in the court? I file for petition to modify custody orders? Then notify the mother? After she finds out about this, mom and step dad with increase the ugly and nasty treatment. Is there an emergency way to do this? Please help.
thanks
