Real problem and need real advice?

I need some real suggestions for a course of action! My ex husband is in jail for viewing child porn on a gov. computer and then was accused of molesting his own child (from another marriage) Well we have two young children from our marriage and the time for him to get out of prison is upon me. I don't want him anywhere near my children. I have been caring for them over the last 3 1/2 years and I don't want them around the man. The biggest thing in my favor is that he will be a registered sex offender when he gets out, but I've known RSO that had some custody of their kids. I see him a threat to my two young daughters and would like to know if there is anyone out there that has been in this position? What course of action did you take to protect your children for this type of person? I have 8 months to get my ducks in a row so to speak. Thank you to all the respondReal problem and need real advice?
First of all go get an ';Order of Protection';....then contact a good lawyer. Don't drag your feet getting everything set so that you are prepared when he gets out. I hope you have been to court all ready to get custody settled. If you have not get your butt down to the court house. Since he is a registered sex offender and he molested his own child, I do not believe that he will have any visitation rights!! If you have not done so, get the divorce in motion!!Real problem and need real advice?
Talk to lawyer but Order of Protection just before his release. Yes he can fight for custody but he is a convicted child molester. Doubt he will even be able to have visits let alone custody!

Report Abuse

That IS a REAL problem! My advise is that you get the advise of a very qualified LAWYER! And do what ever he tells you to do!
You need to pack up your girls and you move somewhere he will not think of .. Get a lawyer and when and if you have to go to court again use your lawyers address as your own so he doesn't know where you live.. GOOD LUCK..
I think the best thing for you to do is get a restraining order so he cant go near you or the children. Good Luck and God Bless you and your girls
File a restraining order and get yourself a good lawyer ASAP!
Great, 8 mos. gives you plenty of time to get ready. Get an Attorney immediately (A GOOD ONE). Get an Order of Protection and make sure you have full custody as sole guardian. Trust me we could go on and on but ultimately you need to get a good attorney even if it costs a little more
