I’m certain you made a difference in both their lives. That is more then others have done. Be content with that. ❤️

So are you thinking of raising it yourself? Maybe you should contact someone in the law field to see what can be done about custody.

You should know that no matter what you'll work through it. Funny thing about kids they're like a box of chocolates to be cliche'. I've gotten 2 broken noses both times head but right after saying I'm not going to hit you, a broken back, ribs and they don't look for work and thrown them in jail. Next time it's the 2 year restraining order but it might be stupid I often wake willing to try again. I'll feel bad if they got to prison but if probably send them money .. it's going to get better. You've gotta forgive we e on they aren't sorry even.
But You if you are considering this i believe would make a difference in this baby's life. Don't get me wrong the good outweighs the bad. I'm no one to take advice from unless it's the don't ever so this category.
