What to do now!!!!!!!!!!!

I have been an evil sm for eleven years. I have too many upsetting stories to tell you. Hopefully, I can do a long story short. I met my husband in 2000, married in 2003. I had told him that I had been divorced for four years and that he needed to be done with the old to start the new. I was with him through divorce, which was the most ridiculous thing I have ever seen. You see I wanted out of my first divorce so much, that I gave everything to him, so I did not go through all of the BS!!!!!
OK. He has five daughters. The oldest got married and had a child. The mother took three of the four. She left the fourth daughter with the father, my husband, moved into publichousing. Shortly after, she put a restraining order on the father (my husband). He was stopped with the children in his vehicle, and the children were taken from him because of this.
Shortly after that, she took off to Kansas City leaving the children in public housing with no supervision. The apartment complex called my husband, and he moved in to take care of his children.
This is about the time that I met him. You want to talk about crazy.

OK. So, after three years I decided to join this family. We have gone through child kidnapping ( won't stick with no custody arrangement with the courts). Paid child support on two children, when we also had two children. Taken care of Medical bills. Whatever,it really does not matter. Here is my problem. I have spent my money to do whatever I can to make the life better for these children.They are now adults except for the youngest, (15) She is still in my home and I love her sooo much and want to make her life soo much better.

Here is my most recent problem. Mother has been gone for eleven years, now has come back and owes over $9,000.00 child support. She is talking to daughter (15) about emancipating herself. Of course, all of you know this is to try to get out of paying child support. I cannot believe that any mother would ever suggest this to a 15 year old. I would appreciate any suggestions that I can get. I am soo frustrated.

Can you/Dh fight the emancipation? The child is a minor!

Does the SS know what that means and the impact that choice could have for her?

Some BM's should be shot.

Thank you for all of your comments. I had expected that she would do something to fight the child support, but this just blew me away. I have done the research, and my husband has sat down and explained this to her. This started because we were finally able to garnish her wages, because we finally knew where she was. We have also contacted the Child Support Enforcement Prosecutor for the back child support. It is in process.

This weekend she has moved to a town thirty miles away from our small town. Hopefully, this will give me some relief from all of this. At this point the further away she is, the better.
