He moved in with his mom, who keeps a very dirty house and has been in and out of the hospital with MRSA for the last couple of years.

He's abusive and won't let me see our son. My ex was abusive to me & my kids. Now I don't know what to do. The judge doesn't believe me. Can I get a new judge? What can I do? Help!
