So my last question "Regaining Custody" was very misunderstood, I have not gone boy to boy, I have been in a steady job with yes commission but steady commission, a bad week meaning a about $200 which is more than minimum wage makes... My mother has not raised my son for three years he's turning three in 7 months, she was given guardianship when he was 8 months old and I was still very much apart of his life, taking him when possible, still caring and loving him but I could not at the time support him financially. I have wanted to take him back for over a year but was not stable enough to do so. My moving in with my soon to be mother in law is what I figured best so I could save up my money for when I am married, and army life is an amazing way to raise a child, my son will see the world and get an amazing education not to mention medical insurance, and I will be able to be home with him. I am not an unfit mother, I am a mother who put my sons needs before my own because I have witnessed other single mothers struggle and their children go without and I did not want this for my child.

What can I do next?

Honey... in your last question, you have no need to defend yourself. Take what you need from the advice you were given and leave the rest. Considering what I think is coming down the pike from your mother, please try to develop a thicker skin. What people interpreted from your own words there and read from your situation is how your mother may try to spin things in court, or worse.

That's why my advice consisted of getting a custody lawyer and a child psychologist. The custody lawyer for how to proceed legally, and a child psychologist for how to proceed with your son. And maybe a therapist for how to handle your mother.

I saw this posting first, then went to read your other one.

You absolutely need a lawyer to help sift through all the legal issues. Finding out what you signed and your legal standing is the first thing to do. You can't make a move in regards to your son until you know.
