My husband is wanting custody of his kids, need some advice on this one!

[acmb05]

Well, he really doesn't like computers. But this does concern me too, since I am his wife. I just wanted "free advice"! Opinions on the outcome, should we forget about full custody and settle for joint? These are questions we ask everyday.

Yes "we" can forget about full custody. Now read the sticky and post back please

He doesn't like computers?

Does he dislike computers more than he likes his kids?

Thanks for the advice. I read the "sticky" and I guess my worries or my concerns don't matter. Thanks.

Nope. YOUR worries do not matter. Only the PARENTS concerns do.

One giant block of text, even if it is properly punctuated, is hard to read.

Typing in short paragraphs, with a line or 2 of space between them, is easy to read.

YOU are not involved here, you should let dad handle his own issues.

How about doing something out of the box, and just try for a brief second to be nice. I know I'm not their real mother, but for the past 5yrs I have come to love them as my own. I was there when the oldest would cry asking why her mommy left her. I have never said anything bad about their mother to or around them. I don't want the girls to get hurt in the long run, going by her past judgements on life choices, they have all been bad ones.

That doesn't amount to a hill of beans in the legal world.

I'm going to take a stab at this.

Stepmom, i'm going to be brutally honest on how your post looks.


Grandparents had custody. Mom AND dad are good with this. Dad has been in the same spot, never moved for custody. Mom went out of state. Children were kept in community. Dad couldn't be bothered since he was busy making a replacement family.
Mom is back, reconnectng with the kids, maybe possibly deciding since dad hasn't cared to, maybe this change is her opportunity to be responsible again.

Go mom!

No, it doesn't. It involves only the parents. You are a bystander.

Have the child's father post here because he will have the relevant information.

And stop with the 'we'. WE can't get custody. Dad MIGHT, but we need to know the facts from him to determine how much of a chance their might be. I can guarantee you don't know the whole story - you only know what Dad has told you. That's why courts don't accept second hand testimony.

I'd like to know why in hell two more kids were brought into the world before taking care of the man's two first kids!!!!! STUPID MOVE.

That's pretty bloomin' impressive, actually!

Well, really... just shows someone has too much time on her hands. Literally.

YOU are not entitled to anything. You are still a legal stranger. And LEGALLY are not a party to this therefore LEGALLY it is not your business. This is a LEGAL forum. YOU should forget about any custody.

OP - did you not state your husband has a lawyer? The lawyer would be the best source to give your husband his chances in this situation.
