Im exhausted trying to do this on my own. I need other moms to talk to. Everyday is a struggle for me. I havent seen my two younger babies since dec 3rd. and have only been allowed to talk to them 1 time in jan. I don't even know if there ok.
This is my story, i fell in love with a marine. shortly after I found out we were expecting. Little did I know that this man I was having children with was a con man. He was unfaithful from the beginning but I didn't want to believe it. After our 2nd child together things really began to change he got worse when it came to other females. Began treating our daughter like a step child and focused on our son.
In Nov 2009 he got military orders to Cherry pt, NC. I was relieved. I thought for the 1st time I can emotionally get back on my feet and face the demon he was. Little did I know that once he left he was gonna completely forget about me and our children. Left me with no water months upon months and power. giving me 160 dollars a month to feed 3 children. The stresses of this finally had gotten to me. After a 6 month battle with his command with no help I thought to myself maybe my kids were better off without me, seeing I couldn't provide for them in the way they deserved. I brought my children next door and went back home and took a knife to my wrist, as I slid it across my childrens faces rushed before me, the goofy times we had I relived in a sec. I regretted what I had done. But this was the ticket that allowed him to remove the children from my care. I was admitted into a 72 psych hold but quickly released that day told I DID NOT belong there. I returned home and my kids were with my neighbor whom had contacted my husband and of course he quickly came to Ca to get them. I couldn't even tell them good bye.
Ive spoke to law enforcement, lawyers what he did was legal. The police said my house was not safe for them because I had no water or power for them, which apparently was MY fault. His command refuses to get involved told me that the state of Ca took my rights from me, and they have this form. However I never received this form. In fact I was told that I could see them and talk to them, but once they were in their fathers care it would have to go to family law. Which I don't have the money for the "retainer" and money is so tight for everyone its hard to find one who will help for free.
And as the time goes by, he isnt allowing my children to speak to their own sister, or anyone from my family. He has completely removed me from their lives. My oldest daughter talked to them April 5th and my two little ones think I don't want them and dont love them. ( which breaks my heart ) what kind of heartless monster tells an innocent child that?
So at this point, I don't know what to do. I know that this past mother's day was the 1st mothers day in 10 yrs I was utterly alone. I don't know what to do, im literally fighting the devil.... any advice would be great. Thanks for reading this....
The reason I don't have my oldest is because my 1st husband served me custody papers with the wrong date on it, and I was out of state for the holidays and couldn't afford to go back to ca for the court date so he of course won by default.
Was I not meant to be a mom??

Clarissa, I can understand what you must be going through!! It's really painful to be separated from your own children. But in this situation only an attorney can help you. You will have somehow manage for the money and contact an attorney who can take legal actions against your husband and help you meet your children. You can contact your friends and family members and I'm sure they will definitely help you in dealing with this situation.
