I was wondering about something. Does anyone know about state laws, such as for alaska about reversing adoption. See here is my situation . . .
I had a baby at 19 and stayed with my mom and dad and they helped me and we realized that we needed financial help and my parents offered to adopt my baby so that he could go under my parents medical coverage. well we waited a year and fell so far in debt because his well baby checks were costing a lot of money and I was forking over almost 400 dollars every two months on top of the 150 dollars a visit for well baby checks. So we went ahead with the adoption with the understanding that my parents would always know and say to anyone and to me and to my son that I was mommy and that the only reason why we did it was for financial reasons.
I NEVER left him. I never left my parents house. I never drank, smoke, did drugs, or even dated. I went to college, got an associates and am working on a BS degree now. The only time I ever dated was a year and a half ago and I am now married to him but I never left my son for more than 6 hours at a time for ANYTHING. I was/am always home with him.
See, we still live with my mom and dad because I know that my son loves his grandparents and they love him. I told them that I wouldn't be so cruel as to hurt any of them when I first starting dating my husband.
My husband is a good man, works and wants to be so close to my son. But my mom is not letting him. Everytime he tries and plays with my son my mom comes over and says stuff like "come on baby, let's go play in the room". What was once fine is now almost a nightmare.
What I mean is that anytime I want to pay for something for my son she wants to give me money back and says stuff like "I don't want to feel like I owe anyone" or "you don't have any responsibilitys. I have my baby to take care of." Or she won't let me take him out unless she is with me. I have to ask her permission to do almost anything for him. The list goes on . . . For the past few years of his life she didn't allow me to take him anywhere to be with other kids cause of the "germs" and he lacked so much social activity that the school district feels as though that is what made him have developmental delays. :(
I love my son and want whats best for him. When I put my foot down about things she gets so mad and doesn't talk to me for weeks and punishes the whole family (minus my son) for it. Oh the list goes on . . .
I just need to know, can I, in the state of alaska petition to get custody of my son back? I wouldn't rip him away from my mom and dad, Ijust want to make healthy choices for him without her influence.
Another thing..his eating habits are so bad because she doesn't force him to eat healthy foods . . . I try. I make him sit at the table, even if he cries. But if he whines for more than 5 minutes she breaks and gives him whatever he wants. That includes candy, popcorn, soda . . .
This is actually depressing . . . sigh . . . does anyone know????
Thank you
