You weren't concerned about your drinking and pain pill usage and your questionable lifestyle (dating ex felon on probation) and its possible effect on your vulnerable 8 year old daughter, but when you became pregnant with your TRUE love's child, you went into rehab, doing god knows what with the eight year old in the meantime. And gee, when the boyfriend gets out of jail, he's moving up to be with you (in other words, he's homeless and unemployed!) and he is going to help you raise your baby together. What about the other child???? If I were this child's father, I'd be trying for full custody. Can you not see how this sounds, in regard to an eight year old child that you so obviously don't give a flip for? Your emphasis on whether your boyfriend is or is not testing clean for drugs is telling. There are other things involved in parenting, and this doesn't sound like a good environment for a child even if he is out of jail and testing clean as Jesus. Based on what you've said here I wouldn't let you (and your ex felon due to drugs) boyfriend foster a kitten. But then, the child's father may not be a whole lot better. Some children are truly unlucky in their birth parents.
