(op) He just came flying back into her life after 5 yrs of no contact of any kind. Now is trying to get sole custody of her. Although we are told by the lawyers that he wont get it Im still scared. I treat her as if she is my own. She calls me dad and she is 9.

I have been through it. Don't worry. The court will not take your custody. However, prepare for visitation. Hopefully, he is so riddled with guilt he will be a good dad from here onward.

I have raised my "daughter" since she was 3, she is now 14. Her bio mom was absent until a year ago, she came back and tried to get custody, she lost, but was awarded limited visitation. Your daughter knows who her real father is.. that is YOU, no matter what your the one she trusts and will in the end call Dad. Try to be friend this guy, you don't have to like him but for the sake of your daughter, tolerate him. Let him try to get sole custody, his abandonment issue isn't going to win him father of the year. Good luck and keep us posted.

You need a good lawyer. You can win this case as long as you and your significant other are not unfit parents.

You are a good person. I know someone who adopted his step daughter and then in his midlife crisis cheated on and divorced her mom and went back to his first wife! This poor girl has had two dads abandon her. It breaks my heart. I know you are scared but just keep loving her no matter what and tell her all the time!

You're afraid her biological father is going to f*** your wife. You're afraid he'll be a better father. You're afraid your step daughter will love him more than you. You're insecure. You're insecurity is justified.These things are likely, but that doesn't make you inferior as a man. It makes you inferior as her father. Blood is a strong potion ingredient in the family cauldron.

^^^ YOUR STUPID. HE did not say he was afraid bio dad was gonna f*** anyone you Moron. Bio dad will NOT get full custody no matter how good he is now, a Judge won't take a child away from her mother unless that mother is unsafe to the child, you don't have anything to worry about, he might get visitation but it wont be unsupervised at first. Request a Guardiam ad litem, and ask the Judge for supervised visits for the first 6 months, this way the child has time to get used to this stranger again. Good luck... and to the idiot who posted above me, you really should stick your head in cement, because your pathetic.

When I was 7 years old, my mom remarried and I really hated my step dad. He was always nice to me, he just wasnt MY dad. Well, he never gave up on me and has been there for me no matter what. My biological dad had broke my heart several times in my life, and over the years I learned for myself that my step dad was the only one that acted like a real dad. Im almost 22 years old now, and I can say thay my step dad, whom I now call dad, is the best thing that has ever happened to me. We are connected at the hip and he is my best friend. Now it seems so weird when im reminded he is my step dad. Never once has he introduced me as his step daughter, always just as his daughter. I love him more than anything in the world. He never pushed me to like him, and so i was able to see who exactly was a real "dad". ----- and daddy, i love you so much! Thank you for helping me study for my final yesterday! Your dad's-special-peanut butter-jelly-banana-sandwhich really helped! Lol. You you dad!
