re: Help dealing with CPS!!!

Quoting Red Bottom:" Everyone has given her advice. She's not ready to take it because she can't admit that any of this is a result of her actions and decisions. "

You don't know anything about me, my boyfriend, my daughter or our situation so quit talking smurf. I'm sick of it. If you can't help and not be a bitch then GET THE HELL OFF MY THREAD!!! I'm doing EVERYTHING I can to make sure my daughter is safe and has everything she needs. Yes, BD and I have gotten into some BAD fights; but he is a good dad and that's what matters and he is trying to step up and be a better boyfriend. BD and I are trying to make us work because yes he has done some bad smurf but he is trying to be a better person. Yes my car is a pos and it barley runs but it still gets my daughter to her DR's appointments. Yes we didn't live in a proper place and I knew that but we are also trying to get on out feet. It was either live there or be homeless; I had no other choice. BD and I are getting our new place before the new year and he has a job interview Tuesday.

Thank you for actually trying to help and not just assuming stuff

Ok so maybe write down a list of steps you need to take to get your life on track.
I'm not judging you at all.
Find a new place to live with proper services ie water
Seek help from outside agencies ( I'm not in the us so I'm not much help there)
Really think hard about your relationship with bd, I'm sure it's a painful thing to do but, perhaps he's not the greatest ( hurting you, making you scared, getting arrested etc)

Every single plan you make needs to be underpinned by what is best for your daughter.
Her health and safety should be the most important thing.

for being a dumbass and steeling smurf. hes already heard 9 kinds of hell from me about it and all the stupid smurf hes done.

So what are you going to do?

Personally if my child was taken by CPs I'd be acting swiftly to rectify the issues.
You need to move somewhere safe ASAP.
You need to speak to someone ASAP about your abusive relationship
Where are your parents/ relatives, can they help.
Don't wallow in this smurf please be proactive

Do you have any other support networks outside of bd? Family?

You know hon, it's ok being a single mother, it could be better than being with someone that hurts you or makes you frightened, even if you don't feel like he'd hurt your baby, him hurting you really isn't ok. You're worth a lot more than that.
When will you be moving? What can you go to prepare for the move?
Can you speak to cps, ask for suggestions?
Can you see your baby?

And op a 'great dad' doesn't try to strangle his child's mother.
No matter what.
Ever.
Please think about that, love yourself and your child enough.

Everyone tried helping you, you just don't want to hear it. You're just waiting for someone to come in and make you feel a little better about what you have going on. But it's not going to get better. Your Baby Daddy isn't a great dad, you said you don't trust your daughter around him, and great dads dont abuse their children's mothers. I've yet to hear you come up with a plan on how you're going to change your situation. You keep saying "we're moving x hours away", "our next place will be much better", etc etc etc. But you're not saying, "this is what I'm doing to make sure I can afford a place" and you continue to ignore everyone who has suggested getting outside help, such as a shelter....possibly for battered women? You just keep saying things like "it's this or we're homeless" no. You have a child, and now a child with a broken bone, so it's time to stop screwing around and face reality and either man up and let your daughter live in a better place because you can't get it together, or get it together so your daughter is safe with you.

Hey Josie.

I agree with all of this. Get on wic, food stamps, etc.


I'll comment more when I get on a computer.

I know how hard it is to be 18, a mom, and in a abusive relationship. However- like Josie said. You really need to be proactive and make a list of all the things you need to do to make your life better and get that child back with you.

It seems like she didn't want advice.  

If you want help op, listen to what Tay says!

Sorry I've been really busy trying to get a job and find a cheap enough place.

UPDATE: BD and I have been fighting more and he punched me again, been treating me like smurf, talking down to me and hasn't been trying to get a job. So we are DONE and as soon as I get a job I am going to get my daughter and I a place and I am going to file for full custody   . Still don't know who broke my daughters arm but I think it was BD or his mom. But I'm not 100% sure. I already am on WIC and Food Stamps. I have no family that can help me because I live in TX and all my family live in GA.

Im sorry that happened but now maybe you will wake up and realize we werent being horrid bitches.... you kept defending this jackass "Hes a good dad and boyfriend" Oh but he breaks your childs leg and punches you... right?

Seriously, go live with your family. Move. Its better than sitting on your butt and allowing your child to be hurt some more.

Why are you still giving him the opportunity to hurt you or your daughter? He hits you AGAIN and you say you're "going to leave when you can". Leaving is never convenient and it's never going to be. Just leave. You've been hit and your infant has had a bone broken....what more needs to happen for you to stop planning and start doing?

What's the reason for neither of you working in the first place? There's like a million minumum wage jobs for anyone that wants to work. If you love your child so much you should go work in the fields with all the illegal immigrants. You would do anything to get your baby back, right?
