I recently came home and found my non working 18 year old daughter with four of her friends out back with splitting up maryjane, while her 10 month old son was in the house by himself. Obviously I was upset told them all to GET OUT! She left with some of her stuff and the baby with me. I called the cops so I can have a police report of this. When the police arrived he found good evidence that was left behind. I am by no means keeping her away from her son, but she has not called in three weeks. She also broken into my home, I called the cops again while I was on the phone she took my phone and threw it and spat at my face.

Please help. I filled a protection with the clerk of courts that she can not come 500 feet of the house. What else can I do, I have limited amount of funds :confused:

What state do you live in?
Would you want to be the baby's guardian?
You might try going to family court and saying she left and hasn't been back in three weeks and you want the best interest of the baby and would like guardianship granted to you.
It helps better with a state because of different state laws

I would really try to keep your daughter away from the baby until she grows up and realizes what she has done. There has to be consequences to her actions, and she is not acting very mature. I would certainly keep her away from the baby.
You do not need $$$ to go to court and file the papers to have "temporary custody" or be the guardian of the child, since she has abandoned him.
Good luck to you.

Thank you. I live in Largo, Florida.

I live in Tampa, and Florida has a very good Department of Children and Families that will help you keep custody/guardianship of your grandchild. You have a battle to fight with your daughter, hope you stick to it and do not give up, for the sake of the child.

Maybe you shouldn't have gotten so pissed at her she after all is eighteen and is an adult weed is no worse then drinkning beer
