I'm 21 yrs old and i recently just got married and have a 3 yr old boy with her and I'm about to take off to the navy. Before this i had a boy with another girl, who is now 9 months, and i wish to have some type of custody over him. i've tried to be around him as much as possible but he lives in a different town from me. i do not have a vehicle to go back and forth but i would visit him for days at a time when i was up there. The baby's mother currently lives with her grandma because she has been kicked out of her moms house and her dads house. She works at a strip club which i dont think is great but she is also attending a tech school. My wife has a good job now and I had been working but i took these 2 months to prepare for the navy. I cant say she is a bad mom but she really doesnt have her priorites straight when it comes to him. One main reason why I want him is because I want him and his brother to grow up together. I dont want to take him away from her out of hatred or anything close to that, we are actually on pretty good terms. I've tried to convince her to let me take him but she doesnt want too at all. I just feel that i can raise him very well and offer him alot more since I am more stable and shall be for a good while. Overall, if I were to take this to court, would I have a good chance of getting him?
