ok this may be a little long. i will try to shorten the story. I have been with my boyfriend for 3 years and he has a 2 1/2 yr old little boy from a previous relationship. We got together just after they broke up and then he found out she was pregnant. He went to doctors appoinments and went to the hospital when he was born. He did not sign the BC and the child does not have his last name. (THey only knew each other for a little over a month.) He told her he wanted a paturnity test to be sure. She was mad and it took 6 months for the test. Finally he found out the child was his and now he has arrears. They went to court and have court ordered CS but they did not do visitation or anything else. Now the child is 2 and a 1/2 and it has been hell. She can't keep a job has moved 3 times and never has money. my boyfriend pays his child support every month. she will call him and say that the child needs things and if he doesn't get it to her then she will not let him take the child. My boyfriend and i take the child every other weekend. My boyfriend and i get into it sometimes because he feels that he should just have the mothers boyfriend adopt the child and be done with it. that way he doesn't have to deal with her. i told him that is stupid and not fair to the child. i think that he should fight for custody and have her pay child support. My question is how hard is it for the father to get custody of a child in michigan and how would he go about doing it. i think it is better for the child any way. we have gone there at times and there has been no food at all and she calls at least once a week for money for something. PLease someone help me. i do not want my boyfriend to lose his son. he does love him and in his eyes haveing the mother's BF adopt is the best way to go.
THank you,
Sorry for this being so long.
