I have a daughter that's 3 yrs old. Her mother and I split up 1yr ago. So far we have been civil and done what was needed as its needed. We haven't involved the courts yet, but I feel I should. Her mother was incarcerated (due to trafficking drugs, before I knew her ) for the first 18months of her life where I raised my child alone and kept her mother well off. When she was released, she got worst and I was always home taking care of us. Now she works as well and our schedules are conflicting. So we put her in daycare (where I am the primary caregiver) and moved my schedule to accommodate the child's needs. I have her 4 days a week, she has her 1 day and grandparents on weekend. Her mother signed power of attorney over to me while incarcerated and on state paperwork I am primary caregiver. Yet she wants to claim her on taxes where I feel I should since she did last year. What should I do, because I'm ready to let the court in , I just don't want to loose my daughter nor pay support since I have done everything up to this point.
