Columbus, OH asked in Divorce, Family Law, Child Custody and Child Support for Kentucky

Major story behind our divorce following child custody situation. I'm a young mother 25 this day. I was about 20 when we got married divorced by 21. Our marriage was happened because my ex wanted to become a pastor. Not because he loved me. (You know in order to do so you have to be married.) So he gave me and ultimatum. (Get married or it's over) Me being young with a newborn, I did what i thought was right. Mainly for our child. About a year after our son was born, i learned that we were going to be having a little girl. But during this pregnancy things took a turn for the worst. Financially, emotionally, our marriage basically ended then. He started to cheat & would leave us. One day he told me he wanted a divorce, left us in a house that was soon to be evicted from. Moved in with my cousin. He decided to pick them up one weekend and didn't bring them back. I went mouths without being about to do anything. Until court where he won custody because i was deemed unfit.
