Okay. So I want to start off by saying that this is probably the hardest thing I've had to do. I am not one to ask for help but with everything that has been transpiring the last couple of months, this is the only hope I have. This is a desperate attempt to remove my daughter from an abusive house and and get my son back home with me, where he always has been and where he belongs. Here is a summed up story of what I've been going through. I dated Olivia's father for almost 4 years, I spent the last 2 years in school, I graduated got a job , sounds great rite? The narcissist switch went off in her father's head and he HATED that I was doing good for myself in a new career. That's when the mental and verbal abuse started. I recorded for months, I lasted as long as I could but enough was enough. I started working on an exit strategy. I filed for custody on a Wednesday in mid- July, 2 days later he was able to obtain a temporary restraining order under false pretenses, barring me from the house and my daughter.

At the end of June, when I knew things were taking a turn for the worse with my relationship, I asked Aiden's father to take Aiden for a few weeks during the summer so I can navigate how I was going to deal with Olivia's father. What happened next was BOTH of my children's fathers conspired to use the courts as a weapon to remove custody of my children. Aiden's father filed for an emergent hearing to get temporary custody of Aiden cause he told them I was a "heroin addict, neglectful and abusive mother" just like Olivia's father told the court. For anyone that knows me for who I really am and knows what kind of mother I am, knows that this couldn't be further from the truth. So, long story short Olivia's father was not able to make the TRO a final order so I am home with Olivia. In order to get Aiden back, I need a stable living condition not in the house I'm currently in. This is not easy for me to do because I had to last minute endure a ridiculous amount of attorney fees. Olivia's father has also started the eviction process and since we're not married, eventually I will have to go. I work full time and pick up any side jobs I possibly can on the weekends but with everything that just transpired, there's no way I'll every to be able to catch up and be able to save enough to put a down payment on a place and all of the expenses that comes along with it. I know this is a stretch and I had to swallow all of my pride but, there isn't a damn thing I wouldn't do to make sure my children are safe and happy. If you read this far, I appreciate you more than you'll every know. Thank you.
