Wht to do if my daughter father just got married and is now he is saying that he is going to file for full custody?
I go to school every day; he has her Sunday, Monday and Tuesday nights. While I have her the rest of the time. He puts her on her school bus Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (she goes to school half a day); her grandmother puts her on the bus Thursday’s and Friday’s. He takes her off the bus everyday. He hasn’t paid child support in 3 months and feels that he shouldn’t since he does these things for her. Will he be able to take her away from me because I can’t be there to put her on or take her off the bus because I am in school? She is 4 years old.

If your daughter's father has advised you that he is going to file for full custody of your four (4) year old child then I suggest that you consult immediately with a family law attorney to safeguard your and your child's interests.
Court's are loathe to change child custody status of parents unless there are circumstances for the child's needs warranting such. From what you have written, I do not see such circumstances warranting a change in the current custodial situation.
