I am trying to get some advice if anyone knows about this or has any person experience.
I am almost 25 and just recently graduated from college. I have been dating my boyfriend for a while now and we just recently found out that I'm pregnant. He has been battling a drug problem for about 5 years now, has been in rehab and still can't seem to stop. I had just ended things with him when I found out I was pregnant and then actually believed him when he said he would get help and stay clean. Well now I am 5 months pregnant and he has continued to use, even going as far a stealing things from my home to pawn including my mother's jewlery. I have never pressed charges because his mother always gets in the middle and bails him out. Well I am through with it now, and just want to know what my rights are. All that matters now is protecting the baby and I wouldn't even be able to trust him around a new born because he is always high.
I need to know if I leave him if I will be able to keep him from the baby, or at least make sure he only has supervised visits until he can prove he is clean for more than a month. He seems to think I wont be able to this.
He dropped out of college because of drugs, has had 3 jobs in the past two months that he has been fired from, has 2 DUIs on his record, has been in rehab and cant stay clean.
I recently graduated, have a full time job, no criminal record, and have never taken any type of illegal drug before.
Does anyone know what my options are, what I need to do to insure the saftey of my child, and if he really can have rights?
I don't want child support from him, or any type of financial help I just want him to stay away from my child if all he is going to be is a let down and a druggie.
