Please. Someone, anyone. I am a mother of two boys age 7
and 9. The boys father and I were never married. We agreed
that the boys would be better taken after living with the
father, with every other weekend with me in my own home.
This situation changed the moment he married his wife Liz.
They have kept the kids from me for months at a time for
failure to pay child support that was never even court
ordered, in fact nothing has ever been court ordered-not
even custody. Anyway, At the current moment they are
denying me visitation citing " I need to prove my
consistency and sacrifice with seeing the kids." I have
been unable to see them on a regular basis due to
transportation issues at first and currently now my job
does not let me off for the weekend, or at the very least
Sundays when I am "allowed" to visit them in their home
with Liz listening in on our conversations and dictating
to me that I cannot even take them out of the home to go
to McDonalds let alone a park, it HAS to be in their home.
I am treated as though I am a prison inmate or pedophile
when I am their birth mother for goodness sake! I don't
know where to turn. I do not make enough not by a long
shot to be able to afford a lawyer to obtain
representation in court to force them to let me have my
visitation and short of going over there I do not get to
see them- I didn't even get them for mother's day! They
waited till the last minute to call me and tell me I could
come see them and by that time I did not have access to my
roomates car! I am completely tore up about this as all of
you can imagine and I really am at a total and complete
loss. PLease, if there is anyone that is out there that
can offer me advice in this situation please write me
back. Do i have ANY Rights as their mom? PLEASE!!!
Thank you in advance
Jennifer
