Kicked out while pregnant and I had my 9 yr old. My cultural husband disappears!
Culturally I called him my husband and I was his wife. (Yes we are both American born but our parents have cultural ties that we abide by for their sake) He became the step-dad to my daughter. He let his family put us in danger and we we're kicked out with no where to go. Then they tried to manipulate me and tell me that if I wanted to be with their son that I would have to live in a their dirty machine shop with no showers or beds. With the little money I had I made sure we had food. He just disappeared and won't respond and even moved to a different state without a word. Is this considered abandonment? And is it considered child endangerment what his family and him did to my daughter? Forget me I don't care cause I'm a grown woman but to kick out a 9yr old and want her to live under those circumstances is wrong in any and every way.
I'm just curious and being proactive because I will be establishing paternity and I also want full custody and if the father wants he can have supervised limited visitation. My concern is for my son because of the way my daughter was treated. I was told to do my research and that there are organizations out there that can help protect me and my children from people like this due to culture.
