Question about child removal (long)
      #546266 - 06/17/09 08:36 AM

My soon to be ex wife has her boyfriend all but moved in at the house and also lets her 16 yr old daughter's boyfriend stay for days at a time. Are there any implications in this matter? We have a 4 yr. old son together and I don't believe this is a very good environment for him to be in. I have had my son for the last two weeks and he has spent the last two months on the weekends with me also. She has hardly called to see how our son is and has only spent a total of two hours with him until she sends him back to me. Would this be grounds to have this child removed from her and into my care? The stbx also has had numerous people over for parties with alcohol present. Thanks for any advice.

You could request in your papers that she not be allowed to cohabitate, but keep in mind the same would also apply to you, not only that, depending on what state you're in they may or may not add this, and even if they did she could decide to find ways to work around the stipulations and you would just be fighting this battle for a very long time.

Alot of divorced couples find that they have completely different parenting styles and there is not much you can do about it unless the child is in danger. Do you feel the child is in danger?

Is the child present when she's had these parties?

The child was at the house on some of these ocassions, but she gives him a pill to put him asleep. The wife lets these people go in and out at will even when she's not there and I don't know who they are. I feel he could be at risk with all that is going on with children being abducted these days.I'm not saying this could happen, but it makes me nervous. I know all of this to be true because I live directly across the street. I can also add that she has two other daughters from another marriage that are in temp. custody of their father for the very same reasons. Thanks again.

If the reasons to remove the girls are good enough for dad number 1, then the same criteria should be enough to remove your child from that identical situation...side note...you live across the street from your ex? Oh the horrors!

Why is she having parties when she's not even home ? Or is the 16 yo having the parties ?

It depends on your state. If you CO is done and their is no mention of it, then mostly likely there is nothing you can do.
