A young couple moved in with me almost 3 yrs.ago.The husband had been a friend of my sonsfrom early in his life and he had lived with us before due to bad family issues.I tried to help him then.They got married due to achild on the way.He turned out to be a bad husband and an even worse father.He abused his wife in all ways possible.And the only time he spoke to his daughter it was harsh.She was afraid of him,really,really afraid.The wife and I went through DSS and had a paper stating that he was not to be left alone with his daughter.Not too long after this I learned of his phyiscal abuse to his wife and called the police.He spent several months in jail.Needless to say, she gave him another chance.Se got pregnant again.This one was going to be a boy.That's what he always wanted.It didn't take long for his true self to come out again.She ask him to leave, he refused.Why would he want to leave when he sat on his behind while a disabled female and his wife paid for everything.One day he pitched a fit for her to take him to Wal-Mart to get a card to play an on-line game.I knew he didn't have any money and had heard him brag to others how he always stole his cards.First,I despise a thief and I saw a way to get him out of the house and away from my girls.....so I called Wal-Mart told them what he looked like and what he would be stealing.Needless to say,he went to jail and she filed for a divorce.He was gone for months and NEVER called to ask about his daughter.But he was eagerly awaited the arrival of his son.We never let him know when the baby was born.She went to court and was granted child support of $75 a week. He has never paid a dime and they go to court again in a few days. He wants to give up his rights so he won't have to pay child support.Can he give up his rights but still have to pay child support?The money will not cover the damage he can and will do to these children but she needs the money.Being on disability,I am limited as to how much I can help.They still live with me. She is my daughter and they are my grandchildren by love.We are trying to figure out where to come up with the money to turn my screen porch into a bedroom for my precious grand-daughter.We could use everyones prays to make that dream come true.
Thank you,
Jill
