It's not like the people on here are unsympathetic and it does sound like this guy is a real loser. But you answered the question yourself that the court is not going to listen. All you can do is protect them while they are with you and hope to God nothing happens, because obviously you have exhausted all your efforts with the police, cps and courts. Until you have rock solid proof and it is sad to say your childrens' testimony isn't enough there seems to be nothing that can be done. So I guess all I am trying to say is that you have to learn to live with it or it will eat you up and eventually effect your time with your family. They will eventually be old enough that the court will listen to what they want and where they want to stay just pray that they are okay until that time comes. Have you considered getting them into counseling on your time? Maybe it would help them deal. Good Luck
*** Finally!!.... some one that has an actual answer. we have had them in counseling three times. ( and all by the childrens request because they were scared of him) they wanted to talk to some one and didn't want to get my wife or i all upset and have tons more problems with him. actually it hasn't caused problems with the time with family.it has actually made me spend more time with them and also let them help my work on the house and things. ya know. teaching them tricks of trades. i know what you mean about
"They will eventually be old enough that the court will listen to what they want and where they want to stay "
but its hard to sit here and listen to them tell me they want nothing to do with him and really don't want to go there, and its really getting hard for me to tell them "its your dad, he has a right to see you and spend time with you", like i have been doing for the past month.
thanks for the thoughts.......
as for the rest of you......... do you actually thing an 8 year old is on drugs? i hope not .so that would mean the term "tweaker" would not be used in this post the way you are all thinking. he is used it to make fun of him why? . because what do people that have seizures do? (hint: flop around like a fish out of water) or "tweak".
