Recently the mother on my two girls called me with a sad story about her getting kick out of her apartment and that she had no where to go, so she asked me to get the girls. I told her that I have the two boys and right now I'm having some financial problems. I told her that child support is garnishing my wages in two states for the same kids and that she is not taking care of the boys and that I am still paying to support them. So she stated that she would drop child support on me so I would be able to get the girls. But that's not what happen she drove down one day from Louisiana to Texas with the girls went to my mothers house. My mother was at work, my mom said when she got home she was in the driveway. So my mom called me so then I spoke with the mother of my kids and she said that she was going to the child support office and sigh some papers. I told her that, that wasn't going to work they told me that we had to be there together. I told her that she should have waited until I could come down and that she needed to take them back with her. So she asked my mom to watch the kids and she never came back. So she called a while later I was gone and she spoke with my wife and told her that the child support office told her that all I needed to do was to come down there and sign the papers and everything would stop. So she gave my wife a fake cellphone number to call her back on. So I called the child support office and they told me that she didn't sign in and she didn't speak with anyone. I talked to her again and I told her what the child support people said she said that they were lying. So I told her if you are about to do what I think that you are about to do (abandon them) that she will never see them again and she said that's fine. My mother had to bring the kids from Houston to my house. My daughter told me that she was going to live with her boyfriend. I just receive a letter she has type up some letter dated for the 11-3-08 she came down on the 4th. She is basically lying in the letter thanking me for letting the children come stay with me for 8 weeks while she finish a internship. She wrote that letter because I told her that she will never see them again so she trying to cover her butt. But that's not right how she is trying to use me when I told her that I couldn't support them at the time. So she is no longer in Louisiana because the letter was postmark from Dallas, but she put down her old Louisiana address on the letter. I have no way to give in contact with her. I think she lying because when the boys moved down she told my mom that the girls probably would have to come and stay with me because she might be going to jail, then it was she got kicked out and she had no where to stay. The only way that I was going to get them was if it was a bad situtiation. What should I do because I don't want her to come back and just get them like that. Her boyfriend stays in Dallas I don't know if she just want be with him or what. But this back and forward is not going to work. Any ADVICE PLEASE!!

Its hard to sift through this. But essentially, you need to file in court for a modification of the support and custody agreements. She will have to show up to fight you.

You need to go to court because now you have all the kids and you should've done that a long time along with your boys instead of waiting for her. As soon as she left the girls I would've been in court the next day but it is not too late. Go to court!
