Hello my question that I would like advice with is about temporary guardianship. Over the past 4 months my mother decided my children go live with her, I lost a job that I just started and my father who was in the hospital sick passed away. My father started to get very sick and my mom came up with the theory of writing a letter that states in the events of something tragic to happen to me she wanted me to leave her "guardianship". She is my mother so I figure sure why not. My mother then takes me into a notary to get the papers signed. I remember crying that day because somethinf didnt feel right n i just felt like i coukd not trust my mother. The next few months goes by I am at home and my children are with their father. By the way me and their father are no longer together. Their father and I spoke and kept visitations 50/50 with no problems. A few days before Christmas my mother calls me asking where are the kids and why the hell are they with their father. I told her it's his day he will drop them off tomorrow morning. After I told her that she became hysterical and threatened to have the police take them from their fathers home. She ignored my phone calls all night that night. I even recirece a call from their father he was crying telling me the cops forced their was in to his home as the children and him were watching Christmas movies. I told him I'm sorry and I didn't know why my mother was doing that. Since that day I became emotionally disdraught, I lost my job, I became depressed, my father was dying and now my children were taken from me. December 2017 is when this all happened since then I have not even spoken on the phone or even seen my babies. My mother and my sister Kelly ran rumors that I became schizophrenic and that I was "a danger" to the children. My mother, brother and three youngest sisters bashed my name into the ground wrongfully took my children from me and cause this situation to get out of hand. An important piece of information is according to her words I have all rights to see, talk, live with my children but that is a false statement. Since then she has filed a prevention of Domestic Violence against me. I didn't ever receive any copies of the temporary guardianship, and it feels like she's been toying with my emotions. There's so much more information but I just need advice to get my ball rolling. According to my mother she did all this because I chose to keep their father in their life.
