My wife and I have had my twelve year old son full time since June of 2013. His mother was the primary parent and asked us to take him in. She is now totally out of the picture regarding any ability to care for my son. Due to recent financial instability and my marriage in a downward spiral it has been requested by my son, his aunt and uncle that he temporarily stay with them until my wife and myself get something stable going. She works full-time and I've been out of work for several months. Our living situation has just now been reduced to a one bedroom. Anyways, the discussion on my son living with them has been up in the air for almost two weeks now. We're meeting tomorrow with the aunt, uncle and the grandmother to discuss terms and whatnot. My only concern is that the grandmother recently asked me if this goes down to sign over power of attorney to her and the aunt and uncle. I told her I'm not signing anything. She's adamant that I need to so that they can enroll him in a new school and take him to doctor appointments and so on. Suspicion is arising that they may want to fight for custody once they get him, with or without me signing over power of attorney, which I most certainly will not do. My question is, where do I go from here? Would they have a fighting chance if they decided to fight for custody considering our current living situation? I believe staying with them for a few months is the best thing for my son but I don't want to lose him in the process. Any advice is much appreciated... thanks!
