It sounds like the dad is irresponsible and couldn't provide for your daughter anyways. Next time you see the dad, you might try talking about how much time and money it takes to raise a child. He may hear you and start to realize that raising a child is more hard work than he can handle. If the dad tries to take you to court, I hope the judge would consider that you provide the child love and stability, while the dad cannot really provide anything but uncertainty.

I feel for you, really I do, we are going through basicially the same thing, granddaughter is going 3 yrs and Mom wants her, she was taken at birth and we have had her all this time. We don't want and are afraid for her to return home, she is such a tiny little thing. DHS says they can't terminate, and looks like she might go to her moms, I pray for others in the same boat, this isn't easy at all for all involved, especially the children. My heard goes out to you- from Oklahoma
