Let me first say, for you to DESERVE full custody at all, the other person would have to be seriously f---ed up. At this point...not much you can do. The best you could hope for is visitation rights under those circumstances. Unless you can prove the kids would be worse off with the other parent. However, and trying to give some legal opinion here, that argument will be hard to make since 1) you came to court high which anyone could make a legal argument that you have a drug problem 2) You mouthed of to your spose like that in court which she/he can then argue that you have anger management issues and 3) You said something like that to about the kid, which is just plain stupid. Try and make some gesture that you really do care like drug treatment/councelling. Even if you don't think you have a problem, it will mean something to a court. At that point, getting on your knees and begging would not be too far a stretch.

If you were high in court you obviously aren't very responsible, so I'd have to say you don't deserve full custody of the child. And you MAY HAVE referred to your kid as a "damn crack baby"? Meaning you can't remember or you don't know if those were your exact words? Referring to your child as... that... doesn't really demonstrate much love or caring for the child anyway now, does it? I wouldn't blame the judge for not giving you custody; you don't seem like you'd be a very good parent.
You have about the same chance of getting custody as a dog does of learning to play the piano. Not actually impossible, but incredibly unlikely. To answer your second question, if you're not in trouble for this, you should be.

u r not what the law considers a good parent...u have no respect for authority moreless the child..i think u want custody so u wont haveto pay child support...im gonna tell ya right now...the child support money u send is cheaper than having full custody of a child..u dont seem like ur a concerned father...u seem to be a revengeful or spiteful person.u just want the child so u can receive the child support...with the attitude n ur misappropiate behaviors u dont deserve the right to raise a child in that kind of environment.

First off, they have e-mail in the slammer, cause that's probably where you should be for contempt of court.
In short, you remember those miranda rights that talked about anything you do say can and will be used against you. Guess what, that applies in court as well. So just write out those child support checks and you may get a supervised visit every now and then.

Why would you want your kid, if you truly love em.
your a selfish little kid who had baby and knows nothing about being a father and less about being a man.
If this did happen and you were dumb enough to actually do something like that, and not be held in contempt of court, well then you probably think youre cool huh?
Cool in the childish sense of the word where what you did is something that takes balls right?
Well you provide for a kid for 18 years, and then father them for the rest of their life--that takes courage. That commands more respect then the fool you want to act because you want to be a tough guy for all to see.
the best gift a father can give to his kid is to treat their mother right, and if you cant keep a woman, what kind of father are you.
what kind of example are you setting for your son.
If youre smart, youd leave him with his mother and get yourself a job that allows you to provide for him and for her.
You do that and youll be lucky if your kid doesnt turn out like you.
Thats the best gift someone like you can give him.
Punk!
thats all you are!

Your an idoit. Some people have to pay alot of money to even have children, or can't have kids at all. You shouldn't take being a parent lightly. Your child looks up to you as a role model, and you need to get your life together, stop doing drugs and be a responsible father before it's to late and that kid hates you for it. If i could wish for just one thing, it's for you to see how you look in your childs eyes, and see what a disapointment you are as a parent. GROW UP!!!!!!

That was a very stupid thing to say in front of a judge. He may not have much respect for you because of it. So I would say that your chances for full custody are not so good. Well depending on if the mother is even worse than you.

I once slammed down a pen after signing a document in court, it bounced up in the air, landed and the judge said, "That Mr Guy is criminal contempt of court and you young man are going to prison." I was sentenced to two days in jail. I was taken to the big house in a van with a bunch of gang-bangers, fingerprinted, photographed and released. Then I had to walk 5 miles back to my car, have a nice day.

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!
You are going to have a heck of a time convincing ANY judge that you are a fit parent. If you said that in court it was written down and is a matter of record now. And you can bet on it if your ex is smart she will have a copy of it when you try to get custody.

You'll never get custody. You don' t know how to handle yourself. How are you going to carefore and raise a child?
I think its time you grow up and seek some help. Really!
