You all need to see an attorney: I'm pretty sure you (and they) are unfamiliar with parental rights and the other legal matters involved in your question.

Y'all really need an attorney.

Why is the child living with stepmom -- is Dad living there, also?

Why is it best for the child to move from her home?

Your situation is way too complex for an internet forum. Do as suggested previously (consult with an attorney.)
