Please describe the situation in detail so that you can be given an appropriate response. Where are her parents? Why do you need to be the guardians? Who is taking care of her right now?

First of all, be sure to tell the judge the story about you being 27 and your wife 14 (or was it 15) when you started seeing each other. That should impress them so much that they will break a leg putting another young girl in your home.

her parents are going thru a divorce, and she just had a baby by a man who raped her and got her pregnant. even though hes in jail, shes living in fear of his family taking the baby away from her. we want to give her some stability is all, right now shes living with her mother, and she sees her father often

Kelly, if you insist on sticking around, at least come up with at new story. The "baby from a rape" and "sibling custody" stories are so last week.
