    Opinion or advise Needed.
    My son ended a 5 year relationship with a woman. They have a 3 month old baby. She had a child from a previous relationship.

    I baby sat the baby for 2 months,and her son now 6 yrs. Ols even after the break-up, because she was stressed and needed some help. They both work. The baby was born in my son's name. He helped her with her son from the time they met until the night they broke up.

    One particular Friday, my son had the baby, she asked if my son could watch her son, because she has to work, all agreed. Sunday after church, I went to the grocery store, I say her with a man in her pj's. I came home and told my son. He called her and told her to come and get her 6yr. Old. He asked her how stressed could she be, if she was out with a man. She refused. They argued.

    12 midnight the police came to my house with her to get both children. My son was crazed with anger. My grandson was sick and still is. The police didn't want to hear anything.

    My son has since filed for joint legal custody and has his court date. The baby is out of my care, and (we believe) her grandmother 80 yrs. Old is caring for the baby. She refuses to tell my son, where the baby is at any given time and who exactly is caring for the baby. She has refused to allow her 6 yr. old to speak to my son if they see each otherecourse until, the court date? It is a shame there isn't more support for fathers who love their children and want to be with them.
    Broken-hearted in CT.r. My son has to beg to see the baby, for fear if he makes her mad she will not allow him to see the baby at all. She has not been served yet, with the custody papers.

    Is there any recourse until the court date. It is ashame there is no support for fathers who love and want to be with their children.

    All he can do is wait and don't blow it. If he is calling her all the time etc then he is going to look bad in court. He needs to maybe back off a little and let the court papers speak for him. Be very careful at these stages about saying anything to the opposing side.

    Your son should have gone to court over custody and visitation issues when the child was first born. Until the court establishes custody, she is within her rights to keep the baby from him. So he needs to chill and let the court system work.

    And it is the right info,

    1. he should have let her go out with anyone she wanted to. When he called and made a "fool out of hisself) by acting like she was still in his life , she proved who was in control by yanking the kids.

    So the day after the child was born was when he needed to have filed, but for some reason he did not. And now he is paying the price for his lack of action.

    So
    1. get an attorney and file for joint custody and/or proper visits

    2. stop interfering with her personal life and who she is dating, it is not any of his or your businesss

    I am concerned that the father was "crazed with anger." That very possibly is going to affect custody in this matter.

    How "crazed" was he? Is he perceived as a danger to the mother or the child (or children)?

    Unfortunately for you this is HIS fight and you have no part in it.
