Losing custody and Why in Oregon state
I recently lost custody of my daughter and no one knows why. I am capable of taking care of my daughter full time. I have nothing that hinders me from taking care of her (i.e. drug issues, alcohol issues, abuse, neglect, etc.). The judge gave custody to a man who does not take care of my daughter properly and he is not her biological father, he is her psychological father. Her biological father is involved now. Her "psychological father" knew he was not her father before she was born but refuses to admit it. A DNA test was done and proves that her biological father is her real father. The judge never said that the reason he was giving custody to the "psychological father" was due to me being an unfit mother. My question is, does there have to be a reason at all if any, and if any, does it have to be due to me being unfit or can a judge just simply say "you get custody and you don't, just because'? I don't have a criminal background, I have tried committing suicide almost 2 years ago but since leaving him have no desire to do so anymore. I was never declared by DHS "a danger" to my daughter. I am currently 7 months pregnant and able to care for my children. My daughter is 9 and is very unhappy with the current situation. I have no proof of the things that the " to my daughter.

The "18f4m" surfs porn online while my daughter is at the house. The type of porn he looks for is barely legal. I have old e-mails from an AOL account he used to have under me when we were together that shows pictures of the girls he was trying to meet. The posts of these e-mails say things like "your little girl is waiting" or "a danger" or an unfit mother AND is there anything I can do to help my little girl from the situation she is in?
