Now, I don’t want to be cruel, but you posted this under your real name, and the first result for your name is a news article about this incident, which provides details.2 children removed from Middletown home after woman overdoses(I’m not vouching for this news agency, but proceeding on the facts there because they match what you’ve posted elsewhere here on Quora).According to the article, police were called on 11/6 for an overdose and found Lindsey Floyd being held in the doorway by a man who was trying to open her airway. That man had called 911 after finding Floyd unresponsive in the bathroom. Police found an otherwise-unsupervised five year old in the home. Police also indicate they found a syringe in the bathroom , and later found a pill, and mirror with what appeared to be powdered .Police also indicate they found another syringe, with crystal . This is consistent with your comments about this being a relapse-OD.The article then identifies a person with your name (and apparently your story, so I’m assuming it’s you but please correct me if I’m in error) as the mother of the child, who told police she’d been trying to leave because of excess drug use. You apparently left your five year old there because you didn't have a car seat. At some point, you were arrested, and charged with child endangering and obstruction, both criminal charges, while Floyd was charged with drug-related offenses and child endangering.To be clear: your children (if that’s you) have been taken because you do have a court date, as records for case 18CRB04340-A show that you’re scheduled for a disposition date on 1/4/2019 at 10am. You also appear to have been charged before (in an incident where you interfered with a repossession of your car), though I’m unclear if you were convicted. You voluntarily left your five year old in the care of a drug addict. I’m not an Ohio attorney, but Ohio law allows (under 2151.414) the removal of a child for abuse/neglect, drug-induced incapacity, abuse/neglect of another child in the home, and a number of other reasons which would also apply here. It sounds like that’s whats happened here.You need to talk to your criminal defense attorney (records indicate that’s someone named Cynthia Bradenburg), and get an attorney to assist with the child neglect aspects in particular. The State’s interest in protecting your children from your situation is valid, and given how close your five year old just came to dying, it’s not an imaginary situation.[Edit: I looked your name up on Middletown’s municipal court records, and if these records are yours, it’s worrisome. I’m seeing convictions for disorderly contact, drugs, DWIs, resisting arrest, not to mention pending charges for identity theft. Please, think of your children, and work with your lawyers to fix your life while letting CPS make sure they’re in a safe home. A home where someone overdoses, leaving a five year old to fend for himself, is not a safe home.]

It’s better for children to have 2 happy parents. Whether you divorce or you don’t you have to fix the issues you’re having with each other. Heal your differences so that when you separate you don’t have toxic emotions because those always spill to your children. They will take those emotions into adulthood and into their future relationships.You need to lead with your heart here and for most people it is all about their egos. The ego wants tit for tat, the ego wants the child to choose them instead of the other. The ego is always right. If you don’t allow your children to be pawns of your egos and find a way to co-parent in a healthy way then your children will benefit. I would suggest getting a therapist or a relationship coach to help you out. Good luck.

I’m not sure I understand the question. The Department of Child Services is a necessity in order to protect children and ensure their safety and well being. They are experts who get training in working with children, and they are trained to work with families to ensure the safety and well being of children.Think of it this way. How did police officers get the power to arrest people? How did Courts get the power to sentence people? How did prison wardens get the power to imprison people?This is the cost of living in a society, You need to follow the laws, and that includes taking care of children.

Such an awful situation. So upsetting.Enabling the narcissist and freeing them of responsibility is not generally a good idea. I would not recommend it. However, I can understand that throwing yourself in the narcissist’s path and offering yourself up as a sacrifice must be tempting. You want to protect your beloved grandchildren. Who wouldn't do that?Allowing yourself to be a human shield is natural instinct. It will harm you though I entirely understand why you'd disregard that risk.I think that what you could do that would be hugely beneficial would be to concentrate on the children. Spend quality time with them. Make your relationship with them the close, nurturing and unconditional attachment that they so badly need.From developmental psychology we know that children need good and healthy patterns of attachment to at least one adult caregiver to avoid potential long term consequences in adulthood. You can be that stabilising force. You can offer the children that. The importance of it is incalculable.So your role is doubly important if these children have a parent who is disordered or abusive. They will be unlikely to form healthy attachment with that person, there is no reason you can't provide it though.

I believe that knowledge and intelligence is innate. I grew up in a violent environment and I did poorly in school. I flunked three times. I flunked kindergarten, 8th grade, and 9th grade. I spent the majority of my time in class drawing, writing poetry, and writing notes to friends. I couldn't pay attention in class at all because I worried relentlessly about what I would have to go home to. I ended up dropping out of high school after the 10th grade. Years later I took my GED test without studying for it and I passed the first time. Then I went to trade school and became a Certified CNC Machinist and then I went back to college and got an Associates degree in Applied Technology and then a B.A. in Social Science/Psychology. I did all of this with very minimum studying and I made the honor roll at one college and I made the Deans list at another. In my experience I feel like the knowledge was already there and that it just came to me some how I can't explain so I can see it being possible to learn anything if you put your mind and your heart into it.

Single answer- if bringing up your child is your top priority, please don't get married... I know I am a bit pessimistic here, because unless and until a women gives birth to a child it's hard for her to look at another kid with the same love and affection as her own son... She might take care of your kid, but as you have mentioned in your question your child is suffering from some chronic ailment... Its not only looking after him but she has to take care of him.. And in your case you're wife, the kids mother herself was reluctant to look after, how can you expect another women  to take care of your kid...be fair, it will be like a responsibility you are thrusting.. .. and not to mention if  tomo she gets another kid is it possible for her to take care of both... come on let's be practical here, many might come out with examples where girls sacrifice and take care of others kids as their own, if there are, they are only exceptions, not a guarantee... Your child is special, right now he had experienced his worst nightmare, he has witnessed his parents divorce ( that's very traumatising emotionally)  and he is devoid of his mom's love and affection... Just imagine his plight... Right now all that kid needs is your undivided love and attention.. He needs to be centre point in someone else's life... He needs to be one dimensionally loved and reassured... Lets think about the other girl, any girl entering into matrimony will have min needs and expectations from her husband.. And I don't think you can do justice to both.. In theory end both your wife and son will end up being hurted... I understand fate has been hard on you and things have turned out this way... But only you have to take the final call here- who are you going to prioritise here, you needs or your sons... If it is for you son's needs then it's a pure excuse, no one else can take care of your kid more than you ( if you still feel hard you can hire a help.. There are lot of nursing agencies to help you out).... But if it is for your personal needs you need a wife then it's your choice.... Right now you are the only oasis for your son... He is your responsibility, he can't afford to loose his dad from his life... Just think twice and set your priorities straight...

Courts will side with what's best for the child: uprooting a child from an environment s/he has known since birth just because a biological parent woke up to their responsibilities is not a good enough reason.For a child it will be same as being taken away by a complete stranger.It is the definition of breaking morality and ethics.The "missing" parent would have to provide a case (a rather compelling one) of why they've been invisible all these years - and if the reason is incarceration (for committing a crime), then almost everything will be against this parent.Even if this person gives enough information to be considered as a potential custodian, there will be a court-appointed supervisor who will oversee the court scheduled visits - what if the child just can't be around this person? If that person - the biological parent - would not be able to prove that they can either hold a job or provide food/shelter to the child, then regardless of their biological relationship, the child is still better elsewhere, and it would be highly unreasonable to pluck the child out of their own familiar environment to compensate for someone's misguided yearning to be a parent.
