I am a 34 year old single mom my divorce was just final in Jan of this year I was married to my childrens father for almost 14 years, But it just got to much...... drugs and alchohol abuse and the physical abuse , he actually drove another vehicle in to my car and hit it 4 times while i had my children in it causing our youngest son to go to the hospital. I have cared for my boys since they were born he was always too interested in getting drunk or high and then beating on me (even while i was pregnant ) he wants visitation now and my lawyer says in the state of north carolina that i will not be able to get full custody of the boys that the judge will not want to take his rights away. I dont want his rights taken away i just want him to have supervised visitation at a 3rd party maybe social services I am scared i do not trust him i dont know what he will do or when he will get the urge to do drugs again , he recently just got out of jail well prison the boys havent seen him but 2 times since november of last year but they didnt see him for almost a year before that because he was in jail and i took them to see him the first time he went to prison and i told him if he ever went back that i wasnt doing that to my kids again so i didnt take them i didnt stop him from writing to them but my boys chose not to write him back what can i do i go to my lawyers office tomorrow i dont want them to be able to stay at his house please help
