She started chasing a new boy friend and she and the kids moved out. She has moved from house to house and had the kids change schools twice since march. I was seeing the kids every other weekend until some stuff happened. and she has stopped letting me see them. Have not seen them since Nov. How hard is it for a Step grand patent to get visitation in MO .I have been the only male figure in the kids life youngest is just turned 6 in Dec.
