I can relate. I lost custody of four of my children due to my drug abuse. My mother testified in court against me

It is a thing called “parental alienation” that is used by many abusers. Look it up, it’s the new fad. Oh and money of course. I lost custody of my two year old over alienation and a couple of missed visitations. Yup, that’s all it takes. And the alienation was not even proven, no facts behind his stories. At least my visits aren’t supervised but I’m sure if his atty asked they would have been. It’s happening everywhere. Please don’t judge. I am nearly perfect- home owner, loving mother, educated, etc. Didn’t matter.

losing custody can be because dad had more money for better lawyers
Supervised can simply be temporary because of allegations made in court ..proven or not
Or could be a bad mom..you have to ask..and research

My sister in law lost custody of her children and has only supervised visitation. She lost custody of her children due to a severe drug problem and the supervised visitation is because the father decided to not allow her to visit the children and lied about it in court. Her mother actually told her to request the supervised visitation to ensure that she did get the visitation.

i knew a girl she was 14 when she had her son. he was taken away because they didn;t think she would be able to take care of him and she had a few depression/stress issues. she got him back only to leave him with her mom (who lost her to CPS) and took off for a few days. CPS took her son and placed him in a foster home where she only got supervised visitations.

i also know a girl (she was 19 when she had her second) who had her kids taken away because she didn;t have a house and the childrens father had a drug/anger problem. she only gets supervised visitation. shes fighting to get her kids back now she has a place, shes gotten rid of him and shes completely clean. shes a good person and i truely hope she gets her kids back because she did a complete turn around. shes healthy, stable, and she will be happy when she has her kids back with her. she was just in a bad place with a bad person. she herself was a good person who just got lost

not everyone who gets there kids taken away are horrible people.. some make mistakes.. some find themselves unable to take care of children for different reasons.. some its for the childs safety

Ask hre, for all you know the dad was a really good liar and made her seem horrible. Or maybe she was horrible but isn’t anymore, or maybe she is this person but you just havent seen that side of her.

She might have had really bad PND and couldn’t cope and wasn’t a stable mum, maybe she’s had it treated…there are so many possibilities.

You should definitely have a sit down and ask her for a straight answer why. Also, there could be a public record of what exactly happened. You could go and look for yourself. If you are thinking about marrying this woman then there should be no secrets between you. Also, essentially you will have a stepson, too. I would find out everything before making any life-changing decisions.

My first thought is: If you are even considering marrying this woman then you need to talk to her about this issue. If you are close enough to get married then you are close enough to know everything…good and bad…about each other.

As for what good have happened…I’m thinking drugs, drinking problems, DUI, unsuitable licing conditions, felonys (murder, robbery, etc..).

She messed up in some way, shape, or form. 10 years is a long time. She may have turned herself around.
