I live in Mississippi,USA.
I'm currently going through a divorce. We haven't officialy drawn any paper work up.However, we are not far from it. She left the house with my two children (one step and one son) about 2 months ago. The morgage is in my name however, the deed is in both of our names. We have been married almost 3 years. She has left 3 times since we've been married. She never worked while we were together but she did go to school. She got her degree and it was more or less "see ya later" type of a deal. She cheated on me about a year ago with someone online. They never met at that time. We worked through it but I don't have any proof other than phone records that she was having an affair. She would talk on the phone up to 10 hours a day during the summer when she was suppose to be watching our 1 year old son and 9 year old daughter. She had the 9 year old watch the baby while she talked on the phone or was on the internet. She never cleaned the house. Made the home very unsafe for the children. My son had on numerous times got a hold of bottle full of milk that had gone bad. I worked 2 jobs so it was hard to be at home. However, when i did come home i cleaned the house because first it needed it because it was unsanitary and 2nd i wanted to teach my kids some responsibility.
She's been married 3 times counting me since the age of 18. She is currently 26. She had a child when she was 16 before I met her. She has lived with 4 different men counting me from the ages of 18 to 26. She's never really lived on her on more than a few months. She usually always goes back to live with her mom and stepfather. Thats where she is currently. I believe her mom called child services on her about my step daughter at one time before I met her. However, I don't believe anything came of it.
To sum up overthing, I'm looking to get joint physical custody of my son. I doubt that I could get full custody of our son. I'm not saying she doesn't love him but I just think in his best interest his better off with me most of the time.
I know she is currently seeing the guy from the internet. Which is fine. Im not worried about it on her part but I feel like that puts my kids in danger. I think its very irresponsible to date someone from that venue and expose them to your children. I can't prove that she's doing it.
I just looking out for my sons best interests. I would try for my step daughter to but I'm not the father. So, theres nothing really I could do.
Please any advice would be greatly appreciated.
ps. i don't have any kind of criminal record. I've worked the same job for over 10 years. I even have over 70 hrs of college under me. My son is now 2 years old.
