My boyfriend is 17years of age. His mother continuously neglects him and his older brother, she doesn't feed him, she is causing him to fail high school,she emotionaly abuses him, verbally abuses him, and she continuously kicks him out. I couldnt see him suffer any longer so I told my mom because he had no other place to stay. She allowed him to move in with us. His mother approved at first but then got upset when my mother told her that sunday was not a good day for them to meet my parents. My mother was also concerned that if she knew where we lived she would show up and start to harass my boyfriend. His mother got angry and went to his job and had him fired for the 4th time. However my boyfriend refused to leave and they couldnt force him because they did not know our location. She then threatened to take us to court which would be in our favor since she neglaected him. However she did lie to my mother and tell her that she never did any of those neglectful or abusing things. She gave us witnesses to call and check to see if she was a good parent. We called her own mother and she thanked us for resuing her grandson and said that her daughter treats her children terribly. His brother said she does it and nobody want s to continue to go through that. Because she was angry and is scared of getting caught. She went to his probaiton officer and told him that she wants her son home. My mother went and paid my boyfriends restitution so he should be gettin off of probation as soon as possible. However today his probation officer is coming to get him ad return him home We told CPS but they have not come to investigate yet. We are thinking emancipation is the next best thing because if not he will have to endure this treatment untill june 16th when he turns 18. But he was happy living with us so what she we do? Should he get emancipated and live with us?. Or should my mom try to get custody? What is taking CPS so long?. Please respond quickly thank you.
