In addition due to a complete lack of supervision she has experimented with drugs,alcohol and sex while in her fathers home unsupervised. The man I live with for the last 5 yrs yelled at her recently and it became an ugly scene. The father filed for custody and told me it was only temporary - it wasnt. He now has custody. I am devastated and since she knows there are no rules at her father's house, she is again involved with this 35 yr old man. Her father has also failed to address her dental needs for the past 2 1/2 yrs despite my pleading with him to do so. I am afraid for her well being. What can I do?
