My son has lived with him for over 6 years in Oklahoma. They have 2 children ages 5 and 3. Both of which he is the legal father of on the birth certificates and has lived with, taken care of, and supported this entire time. Several weeks ago his live in took the girls to Texas to visit and help her sick mother. The agreement was that she would come home this last weekend. Upon arrival there to pick her and the girls up we found out that she has changed her mind and refuses to come home, but will not let my son go. His daughters desparately want to come home. I have read that in Oklahoma even though they are unwed he has the same rights as their parent as she does. By this I mean he has the right to keep them at their house until a court decides otherwise. If someone knows differently please enlighten me. I am wondering if anybody knows about the laws in Texas and his rights there. Serious concerns about her mental stability have arose out of this weekends visit and we are very concerned for the children's welfare. If anyone knows what his rights are in that state please let us know.
