A: You can file for guardianship of the child. You will have to convince the court that it is a detriment to the child to stay with the father. I am assuming you no longer live together.
A:
more info needed.
are you still with the boyfriend?
have you considered child protective services or are you trying to protect him too.
you may hire a lawyer to file for guardianship.
