    Question Parents Neglect 13 Year Old, Aunt Wants Custody In Ohio

    Niece father on the run for pending charges of a sexual nature against a minor; mother on parole after federal felony; parents not divorced, separated over 11 years. She lived with her father after her mom abandoned her at 22 months of age; her father abandoned her with her mother at age 13 when facing serious charges. Mother constantly has live-in boyfriends who are abusive. I want to protect niece from parents neglect; however, I am an aunt and Ohio has laws just for grandparents, not for others. What do I do?

    Your best option is to get mom to consent to the child's living with you. If the situation is bad, consider reporting it to child protective services.
