After hostile contact she now refuses to speak to him and he does not know where they are. We can't afford a private investigator to track her down and would really appreciate advise on how to get the children back.

It aggravates me to no end. The courts think they are GOD when it comes to slapping the wrists of father's who they say cant pay the support. They arent even going to have a chance once they go to prison and get that felony. Most jobs wont hire you if you have a felony regardless of what its for. I will one of these days change this law and get justice for all men who were convicted of nonpayment of support and denied a DNA test.

I would seek out legal council either on this site (they seem to be very knowledgeable) or with legal aid if that option is more affordable for you and your family. Don't walk into anything blindly and never talk with the other party without some legal council either present or at least talk with them BEFORE meeting with the other party. Again these are just MY opinions and they have NO legal precedence at all. @ Anonymous #1: I believe that even if he has signed the birth certificate that he would need to submit to DNA testing, especially if he goes into court and states that he does not believe that he is the father of the child… take it from me I have two children from a previous relationship…long non info giving story short he stated he wasn’t sure if he was the father but did not submit to the DNA testing he requested…. he still pays child support but refuses to see the children he put himself through a lot of trouble for nothing I guess.

Since, she had to give up her job as an RN in westlake and her house to take care of her son at rainbow babies childrens hospital and is residing at the ronald mcdonald house of cleveland. Her other two children live at her parents home and gave permission to her ex to pick up the children 2 days out of the week. 6 months have gone by now and he called her yesterday and said she has to grant him share parenting or he would fight her for full custody for all three children. Him and his girlfriend continues to work and visit his sick child when he is at the hospital once a week and when he is outpatient he takes his son for 3 days when he has his two other girls. MY QUESTION IS CAN HE GET FULL CUSTODY OF THREE KIDS DESPITE THE FACT OF THE MOTHER STOPPED WORKING AND GAVE UP HER HOUSE TO TAKE CARE OF HER SON WITH BRAIN CANCER? She has given up everything to help her son get better including time, money, her home. And he has been sitting on the backburner saving money, getting a new apt, holding fundraisers and giving her nothing to help his son but hanging out with him a couple days. NOTE: She has been at her son's side everyday at the hospital and 4-5 days a week when when he is doing outpatient treatment. What can she do to fight this?
