This post left anonymously

I have been with a bipolar man for the last 7 years (4 years of marriage) and have two kids ages 1 and 3.

I have tried to hang in there with him but he has been hospitalized 4 times, continually smokes weed and does not take his medicine. Recently we separated and I called to see if he wanted to see the kids before we moved to another state about 12 hours away. He took the kids and will now not give them back to me. The police say that he can take them becuase there are no papers to say otherwise. I’m filing for emergency custody tomorrow but am afraid he will try to hide them. I want him to see them, but with supervision….I wanted to be resonable and now I’m looking at a long drawn out custody battle. Any advice. I’ve really been going out of my mind without my kids. I know they are safe because he is at his mothers house but I’m in pieces. They have never been away from me for more than 2 nights. Tonight makes the 3rd night.

Get the biggest male friends you have and go over to his moms house and get your kids back. Don’t break in or make threats, just knock on the door and when she opens it go in and take your kids and leave.
Then don’t let him see his kids until after the custody battle is done.

Depending on the state you live in the laws vary. Most states will lean toward the mother for custody. But this thing called joint physical custody has to be determined by a judge. You need legal help. The first punch wins, so act first. Second, while being away from the children, write to them and keep it. Later on in life you will have documents supporting your love and it will help you through.

Since I wrote this, I have gotten my kids back and have to let my crazy ex see this for 2 nights and 3 days during the week. This means my very bright 3 year old cannot go to pre school it took me forever to find for her and my sons schedule is very messed up. They are confused and their little spirits are steadily getting a shade darker. My ex says he has emails to prove that I was having a lesbian affair…which is crap. I had a friend HE introduced me to that was living in Korea and I wrote her emails from time to time about my problems. In south MS, proving a parent is gay is not good for that parent. Anyway, just a big, legal, custody battle coming up.
