Can My Mother-in-Law Take My Son or Take Me to Court?

@kaidenleewadesmommy,

she's saying shell take your baby from the nursery at the hospital? you should take a screen shot of yalls conversation if she's texting that to you and report it to the police. and let the hospital know when you get there that she's not allowed to be there. thats scary im sorry youre going through that.

No. As long as you are taking care of the child.

me and my boyfriend both have a job we are just staying with my parents because my dad works and my job is taking care of my mom i get paid for . im finishing school an we buy everything ourselves she keeps saying she'll take him from the hospital nursery or she'll take me to court . she lives in a shared home 8 people 1bath room .. and doesn't have a job she also has drugs in her house

Yeah that justification is garbage. I wouldn't worry about it.

as long as your doing what you need to do then absolutely not!!! she would have to prove your an unfit parent which I'm sure she won't be able to do cuz I'm sure you will do great! I was a teen mom, I had my 1st 2 kids at 17&18; & was fine. you'll do great girl! don't let anyone scare you!

Anyone can take anyone to court but it's likely she'll be unable to prove her case. She has to prove you're unfit if she can't do that they can't take your baby. Im so sorry you're going through this

Can you prove you're financially independent? Btw - seems like a sucky thing to do!

she said my house is unfit because my mom has a brain injury.

Why would she want to take him from you simply cause you young ?????
