CaddoRose]Regardless of what they told you, no one can gain complete custody of a child without TPR of the parents. They can however have temporary custody which can happen today. If you really do have concerns about the welfare of the child then you should call CPS and discuss those concerns with them. The CW needs to know that the parents are allowing the mother to be in the house. They also need to know the history of the SIL and the possible dangers from the grandparents from alcohol abuse.
I actually have more information after contacting my Mom; you are absolutely right; they are getting temporary custody for now and since his temp. was 101.2 at 2pm he wasn't released today. My Mom who has a heart the size of Texas is so ready to help this poor baby that she has lost sight of the fact that they are lushes and argue daily, usually after drinking. She shopped 'til she dropped for him today.
I don't know very much about my S-I-L except that she is 4-5 years older than my brother and this is her 4th marriage. I question her parenting skills since most of her kids live out of state with her sibs. I am not a meddeling in-law (well not usually) but this really cuts it for me. 99% of the fights they have involve her being manipulated by her daughter so no matter what they tell CPS I do not think Brandon will be safe or even safe from her there. I am prepared to lend my voice and will probably make a report tomorrow. Thanks, Tracy
