I agree that they would be better off if not in his care. My other sisters and I even contacted an attorney about trying to get custody of them. Both my sisters have children and are excellent parents. I would be a terrible parent, but I can offer financial help. I am for the most part financially caring for his kids already. The attorney told us we would have no chance at all. He said the courts wouldn’t take into account his addiction. He doesn’t physically abuse the children so is therefore a fit parent. I know he loves his kids, but he is in no condition to care for such young children. Their mother was no better. She ran off at the beginning of the year, and no one has heard anything from her since. It’s really an awful situation for them. I can only do so much. I’m taking them shopping today, and they are spending the night at my house. I am trying to do things like this as much as possible.
