25 year old father needs to know if I can just go and grab my daughter? away from her drug addict mom?

Monday, August 30th, 2010

She left me when our daughter was 6 moths old to be with a guy who she met on te internet. I was taking my daughter,now 2/12, four days a week and she just up and left her with her disabled sister and mother. I did sign the paternity papers and the birth certificate. I also give her $75 a week for her. well anyway my ex’s sister who now has my daughter and also lives with her mom in a town 2 hours a way, will not allow me to see her at all but my mother takes her on the weekends, do I have the right to go and just take her.There has never been a court hearing or anything such as that? The mother had another babyiin the mean time and just gave it away to her sister also. I want to give my daughter a stable home with my wife and our new baby. She does not need to be tossed around and I do not feel i should have to fight in court…she is mine and rightfully so, please help me understand my rights as a father. like I said no one ever had any kind of court custody or gaurdianship

Isn’t there something that can be done to keep a mother from her children that is legally binding and quick to

Friday, August 27th, 2010

process? My son works offshore gone 3 weeks home 1 week, his soon to be ex-wife is a drug addict, smoke crack, tricks for drugs, lies, steals, abandons her children weeks at a time then decides she wants to be mother for a day gets they’re hopes up then lets them down every time. Besides the fact that she has that staph infection all over her body. Help!!??
Social services have been in & out of this situation to no avail! We even have a lawyer who got us an emergency court hearing—for December 4th. What an emergency!
The judge will not make a decision without both parents being present. Or so she says. I’ve seen it happen faster in less serious cases. Justice!
Both of her parents are gone. Her grandmother raised her and her 6 brothers and sisters.

Child Protective Services took a child from his mother for doing drugs and having drugs in the child’s system?

Thursday, August 26th, 2010

There is this girl named britney in my town she’s 17 years old and has a 1 year old son. britney and her family have a bad reputation Basically they are well known for causing problems. britney’s mother is a alcoholic who doesn’t have a problem watching her grandson while under the influence. britney’s father committed suicide when she was young sadly although who could blame him, after all that family is trouble. her two brothers are in and out of jail… anyway recently Child Protective Services took her son in their custody because she was snorting prescription pills, smoking crack, and possibly shooting heroin, her son tested positive for drugs.. and because the family is unstable the boy will probably go to a adoption agencie since britney doesn’t know who fathered her son. will she get into trouble for having drugs in her son’s system?
will the mother be sent to juvenile intill she’s 21?
The mother neglects her child by not watching him properly. she takes him out without dressing him warmly Not putting a jacket on him, or hat and gloves. she takes her son out for a walk 2:00 in the morning and later then that strolling him arould when she has no business being out in the first place. she starts fights with people and becomes very violent in front of her son, (she’ll fight another person with her son there)
Because we live in a small town basically everyone is in everybody else’s business therefore rumors are spreading about her alot. of course Child Protective Services did take her child but people are talking about why they took him from her. she deserved it she shouldn’t have children when she can’t even take care of herseif, britney will probably grow up and be just like her mother a alcoholic with four more misfits as children just like her siblings.

Why do people move from extreme drug abuse to fanatical religion? I’m looking for a psychological pattern.

Tuesday, August 24th, 2010

Though I respect the role of religion in recovery, I am worried about my friend’s new and extreme evangelical Christianity. He was heavily addicted to meth, went into a year long rehab in an evangelical Christian center, and has never been the same. When he got out, he spoke much of Christ. That was fine, since he found a guiding light, if you will. But he went back into the drugs. Now he’s been off of them again for a month. He’s broken up with the mother of his child, is convinced she’s possessed by demons, see’s thing in zealous and fanatical terms…I worry that he’s suffered permanent damage from the drug. He attributes certain psychological states to receiving the Holy Spirit (not that I don’t think that such experiences are unreal; rather, I think his is a sign of some extreme chemical imbalances).

Please, I’m not looking for any lecture on the way of God. I’m looking for some clues from someone with psychological knowledge who can point me in a direction to researc

I’m fat, ugly, unemployed, friendless, addicted to drugs, and i steal from my sick mother…?

Saturday, August 14th, 2010

I’m pretty much the most awful human being you can imagine and all I think of is jumping off of a building or laying down on railroad tracks. I hate myself.
Not really a question, I just don’t have anyone in my life to bounce ideas off of.
This is the most honest communication of any kind I have made in the past 3 or 4 years.

My mother will be furious if I accept a collect call from my dad in jail?

Sunday, August 8th, 2010

My dad was arrested a month ago for a DUI. Since then he has been calling the house phone every few days, and my mom refuses to accept the call. She told me that if I accepted a call, there would be severe consequences.
My heart is aching because of this. I know it’s kinda expensive to accept collect calls, but I don’t like that my dad isn’t able to talk to us.

Also, my mom is really upset and filing for divorce over his alcoholism.

Do you think a baby who is born addicted to drugs should be released from the hospital to it’s mother?

Saturday, August 7th, 2010

I’m talking about any baby who after it was born had to stay in the hospital to get weaned off the drug of choice their mother was on. I’m in the healthcare profession and I don’t believe in some of the decisions “the system” makes and was wondering what other people thought.

What to do on visit from drug rehab?

Sunday, July 25th, 2010

My sister is 17 and has been in a court ordered drug rehab facility for the past 8 months.

She now gets 12 hours visits away from the facility, and on those visits my mother likes to have her go tanning, to the mall, get nails done, etc. I think that time should be spent going to colleges, the library … something like that so that when she is out she can do something with her life. My mom says this is her “reward” time and has elaborate plans for fun stuff.

What do you think?
