[QUOTE="ChickPea, post: 749358, member: 24089"] During her pregnancy we talked about possible adoption, etc. but - as anyone here knows - the lies are abundant in dealing with CD kids, so we were always in a state of gray smokescreens and BS. On one side of the mouth she was talking to us about adopting, and out the other side she was having the abusive boyfriend living with her pretending they could safely raise a child possibly, if it was his and not someone else's (lying to us about it the whole time while my parents paid her rent). I think she was hoping things would play out differently, since she isn't 100% connected to reality. In her brain, either she would stay with the abusive ex and they would try to raise a child together ([I]with both of them miraculously getting off weed and liquor and being functional adults[/I]) OR she would leave him and gain instant and constant access to our home (where baby is staying so he isn't in the fray of their turmoil). Neither was a rational thought. No, daughter has not contributed much at all for him beyond threatening to take him with her every now and then. It is kind of complicated, and I will be seeking legal help in the next month or so because everything is in such limbo, and the threats to up and disturb his life are unsettling. The alleged father things she's unfit and says that he's "ready to have him live with him" now. This poor kid. :brokenheart: [/QUOTE]
