Wife Packed Up And Left With 11 Month Old While I Was At Work. Is This Legal?
Hello everyone,
having a really tough last few days. On Monday I came home from an 8 hr shift training at a new job to find that my wife and mother in law had coordinated a moving company to come to our shared home of 9 years (rental) and pack up what she considers her belongings (some of which can be debated) she has also taken it upon herself to decide that our 11 month old, and all his necessities for well being are being taken to her Mom's house about a 45 minute drive away. They have already established a bedroom for the kid and herself and this was obviously pre-meditated well in advance. I feel blind sided of course, but she blames it on my drinking problem and adderall usage. so while I do agree I have problems, I dont agree that this was all done without my consent or even trying to ask for any input. I live in Austin TX and I do not know what to do at this point... she says she wants to remain separated by not divorced for no less than 6 months while I get a chance to "sober up" and go through substance abuse programs (already signed up) ... is it legal what she did or should I have any worry about future parental rights if the kid resides in that house for a certain period of time? My wife has the advantage of a family safety net and plenty of money to support this and free room and board... and I am being stuck with the house by myself and all bills. I cannot afford it on my own. any advice on what I should do first?
