    Ohh, poor guy! :(
    I love babies and kids, so to hear a story like this one just melts my heart away. I've never been "in" this situation persae *knock on wood*, but one of my friends got her child taken away last year cuz the baby's father claimed that she abused the baby and then left it alone. My friend did nothing wrong, and in time, it showed. If you have nothing left to give but persistence, faith, and love for your daughter, then it is in my belief that you can get your daughter back. Seeing as it is through the government, it may take longer than you hope, but if you really are a good father and can prove yourself as so in the courtroom, then I totally believe you will have her back. BTW, my friend is only 18 years old and lives on her own, all she had was herself and her friends -but she made it a point to do what she had to do, and now her son lives with her. Good luck, and if you ever need to talk to someone, my sn is in the left-hand corner. Athena_skye...don't forget it. Peace.

    1st off do a search for child protection advocates or something, theyre not technicaly lawyers often, but are close enough and will help for free
    find 1 your confortable with

    this isnt meant to sound harsh but just a concern that the courts will look at
    you say you already have too many kids and cant afford a lawyer..how many
    can you prove beyond a doubt you can afford to take care of 1 more?

    also..your spelling..not typos since ya spell the same everytime..but you seem to be somewhat uneducated? i'm not judging ya on that, just suggesting if you took some adult education classes at the local community colledge or whatever..and tried to get a better paying job..just that effort towards bettering yourself, for your kids sake would go a very long way towards making you seem like a good choice to place your daughter with

    they're not very likely to take her away from a mom even with a history of abuse..if shes the only 1 capable of suporting the child

    yes school and searching for a good job takes time and effort, but putting in the effort and showing your trying will really impress the court

    good luck..and please know i meant no offence by that, just trying to help

    ps ya might want to repost in parenting forum
