Wife took our child... What can i do?

Question

I know for a fact she is at her parents house, and that is the problem. Their house is filty, dogs peeing and sh**ing everywhere. My wife at work and so is her mom during the day leaving only her father to care for my baby, and he is handicapped. Im so worried about my daughters living condition, but my wife will not have anything to do with me. And no im not beating her. She does this after every arguement. What can I do? I want my daughter here with me, its so much cleaner at my house.

Answer 1

You should make up with her and woo her back home - for your daughter's sake.

Answer 2

How about you file a motion for temporary custody?? As for the short term, there is little you can do legally since if there is no custody order in place and you are still married the law sees it as joint custody with equal abilities to parent. She just has primary care of the child. Not to sound judgmental, but how clean a house is has nothing to do with the amount of love or care that a child receives. I've known people who grew up in filthy houses and are the most kind, generous and decent people ever. You make no mention of the way that the child is being raised....it takes more than a clean house to raise a child. It takes two people working together to raise a child. Be sure and stick up for your rights and work together....the end result is a happy, healthy child.

Answer 3

What was the arguement about that would make her do this? You have every right to have your daughters at home where they have proper care and cleanliness. Seems to be an underlying issue here which makes me feel you need to express yourself more. Why won't your wife have anything to do with you? How old are you both? Contact a legal aid representative, you'll find one in the phone book, call and express yourself to the individual. With her father being handicapped how is he able to care for two children? How old are they? It's time you got your house in order or find out why.

Answer 4

Unless you've gone to court for custody, the only other thing you can do is call Child Protective Services in your county. You can do this annonymously. A social worker would then do an inspection of the living/child care arrangements. You firstly need to get a lawyer & go to court for either joint custody or full custody. If DCFS files a report on the child's living conditions then you have ammunition for full custody.

Answer 5

I used to be within the equal trouble 8 years in the past and eventually surely insisted we take my son for an comparison. Your trouble is really infrequent (as used to be mine) since when it comes to boys, it's quite often the mummy who intuitively is aware of that there's some thing improper - on the whole whilst she sees her baby engage with different youngsters of the equal age in play agencies and whatnot. It is on the whole the daddy who's in denial hence. My recommendation could be to with no trouble insist the baby get identified, even to the factor of bringing an proficient for your residence if the mummy refused to take the baby to an appointment. Be cautious even though - nearly all of marriages with an autistic baby lead to divorce and mine used to be no distinct. Your spouse - if my enjoy is any indicator - could have a whole meltdown and come to a decision she does no longer wish to elevate the baby with you any more. I have no idea in which you're placed, however household regulation in a few states is a nightmare for father's - principally with a "designated demands" child. Trying to prefer the correct remedy for the baby if the mummy does no longer agree may also be disastrous within the authorized approach. Sorry to be so poor, however you need to realize that to get from right here to there calls for tip toeing by way of a minefield.

Answer 6

Unless she has been granted custody this can be considered kidnapping in some states. Call the police and file missing persons on your daughter. Also have the Child Protective Services (CPS) check the living conditions.

Remember Baby Grace and act quickly. I pray for you and your child.

Answer 7

1st, if there is no custody agreement in place and you and her are just separated, you have as much right to the child as she does. If you go there and she is not there, there is nothing her dad can legally do to stop you from taking your child. I would go get the child then call social services my self and have them check out your living space and have them make the determination the child stays with you until you and your wife figure this out.

Answer 8

beg her talk to her tell her the condition in her parents house is not very sanitary and she cannot take the problem that the two of you are having on your poor daughter. Handle it like an adult that she is solve and compromise it together like a real couple or your relationship will not last as long as you anticipate it. tell her to put the child first.

Answer 9

Something is wrong and one of you aren't getting the drift. THE KIDS come first. Not your wife, not you! Find out what you're doing wrong, let her find out what she's doing wrong. It sounds pretty immature for her to run to her parents' house every time you guys argue...unless u r abusive. That solves NOTHING and it confuses the children. Good luck!

Answer 10

Call children services in your town, and explain what conditions your wife has moved them into. Once you do this, they will go to your inlaws home to see for themselves, and if it's as bad as you say, they will make her remove them from the home or if she decides to stay they will probably put them back in your custody. You have to protect your kids at all cost, so do what you have to do. She can fend for herself.

Answer 11

get a lawyer and call social services. If anything social services will make her clean the house your daughter is living in.
