In Dec. 2005 in a spot that I was able to pick up and just leave AZ. to quickly start taking care of mom and dad in Los Angeles, on verbal agreememt with ex-husband that he take care of our 2 children ,now 17 and 14. In our divorce decree, I got full custody and rights to claim kids every year for taxes. but because of me leaving quickly to LA. they moved in with my ex- nephew and I'm not getting really any payment for taking care of mom and dad, I wasn't able to claim them on top of being in another state, without my permissission the newphew claimed them . FINE they been living under his roof and i not going to make a stink,But my ex husband has never paid child support to me (AZ) and has for years lived in garages of family members or wherever,to try for the last 6 years to claim disability , and. my daughter is running amock, at 17 not in school , has some minor health issues and boys (and afraid will become pregnant before 19. and is working a job and paying newphew 150.00 a month cash no reciept, she's a minor. I want them back with me here in calif, while I take care of my Mom and Dad ,i feel they would do better under my care again
