My daughter had a baby about a year ago. Her husband had moved out and moved in with a girlfriend and it was right after that she realized she was pregnant. He had done the same thing with their first child but came back before the baby was born. This time he did not and he had not been very good about paying any support for the children. She was the one that consistently held the same job for over 12 years where he has went from one job to another. His girlfriend is the same way. After the baby was born she decided she needed to apply for food assistance and so a court date was put through to go after him for child support. He then started paying her something and started taking the kids every other weekend. I am not sure why but she cancelled the court date right before the court date. He then stopped paying her anything and did not come to see the kids for about a month. She got further and further behind in bills. One day she went to take her middle child to the orthodontist for her first visit and her car ran out of gas. She called her husband who refused to come. The car got towed. He got it and sold it. He had taken the vehicle a few months before that because out of the money he gave her she was supposed to pay for his car insurance, phone, and had him on her insurance. I guess she started feeling overwhelmed and stopped going to work. She no longer had a phone but just stopped going. We talked her into getting an attorney and filing against her husband. When her husband found out he picked up the kids and has not let her have them. We finally got to see them a couple times by taking the older 2 to lunch when they were at school and he met us at a restaurant but he would not let her have them. She had gotten evicted and is moving with us. After he took the kids all she has done is stayed in bed. She sleeps a lot. At times she laughs inappropriately. We took her in and they found that her vitamin D level was low. She got a prescription and she told us she was taking them but we later found out she had not taken any. We have taken her to a counselor but I am not sure how cooperative she has been. I am not sure why she suddenly went over the deep end. It may be because she found out that her husband's girlfriend is now pregnant. What can we do to help her. We went to court and she finally can see the kids this weekend and can every other weekend. They set it up that she needs to start paying child support but has no job and is not motivated to get one. It is pretty ironic that she doesn't force her husband to pay child support for a year and half but now he has them for 3 months, doesn't allow her to spend time with them and she will end up paying back child support if she does get a job.
