We want and need, to get custody of our two yr old grandson to keep him safe.
My husband and I have had physical care of our two year old grandson since thanksgiving (4mos) His mother passed away when he was 5mos old. Because they she was so sick, we also had him from birth until he was 7mos old. At that time the mothers sister moved in with my stepson and they took him back. It has been back and forth ever since until last Thanksgiving. When they split up. I have refused to give him back, legealy I know that I can't stop them. He has recenly met someone else with two children under our grandsons age. And again, wants him back. The father has not held down a job in almost a year, has two other sons that he hasent seen in at least 4 years,with two different mothers. Still Married to one of them. No home, sleeps where ever any one wiill let him. His plan is to move in with her and take the baby back. Stepson draws a ss check baby because of moms death. It is used to pay child support for 1 of the other children and his carpayment... Foodstamps.. My husband wants to protect his son (becauseing he is have such a hard time). I want to make sure my grandson is safe, happy and taken care of. I feel he should be able to lay down in his own bed at night and know he will wake up there the next morning. No child needs to have 3 mommies and 4 grandmas with-in 2 years We live approx 20 miles from where his father is staying he has not came to visit even one time. We have driven to where he was, called and he had to many thing to do , to see him. We can not afford a lawyer, I am afraid if DCS get involved they will move I'm into foster care until thing were setteled.. He has already been through enough he would not understand.. he is just now learning to trust. I won't let him be hurt anymore! Any ideas?

You have no legal standing here. Your husband needed to apply for legal guardianship. If you have no court order giving you the rights to care for the child then you cannot refuse to turn him over. So the best thing you can do now is have your husband go to court and apply for guardianship. |
