    Question
      My fiance and I are not married and won't be when the baby comes. I am the mother. Can I put my fiance's last name as the baby's last name instead of mine?
      Right now my real mom has joint physical custody of me but I have lived with my father and stepmom for the last 13 months. I am afraid my real mom will change her mind and not let me live with my dad anymore and I do not want that to happen. My real mom is not able to support me the way my dad can and my stepmom and dad spend more time with me. My real mom does drugs and I do not like to go over there. Is there any way the courts would let me live with my dad always and not have to worry my real mom will tell me I have to come back and live with her? I want to live with my dad please help.
      My brother, has been using meth, stealing, having weapons, and etc for many years. Recently, he stole a car, and cops caught him. We had to go get him, because he was a minor (17, until november and he is 18). Well, they caught him breaking into a house, and possesion of meth, as well as weapons. They put him in jail, but we had to get him. What I am wondering is, is there anyway to get him out of the house, since he is violent, and will retaliate if we send him to jail, and we get him. Is there anything we can do, since we are afraid of him
