any suggestion

I am 1 year clean....I have been to court so many times with my ex when I went to rehab my ex took my kids with the agreement they would return home after ( Rehab was my choice not court order).  Surpise he filed for custody.  My whole xanax issue started in 2003 when I went thru a very ugly custody battle with him 40,000 later rehab ect I am fighting him again.  My daughters want to come home they are 14 an 16 have a lawyer.  The courts have order a drug an acohol evaluation I cant find a place to do it.....everywhere I call it seems the evaluations are for people who are using.  I have taken numerous drug tests ect but this is the only thing that is keeping my girls from coming home.  ANY help please.......

I agree, the kids are at an age where they can choose which parent they want to live with.
They can also choose not to visit the noncustodial parent.  IF the court is ordering the drug eval, they should help you to find a place to do it.

I'm sorry about your situation, But your girls are of legal age to consent. They can chose where to live unless there are underlying issues. I'm talking to my buddy now and he is a divorce lawyer, but the law may differ in your state. Are you employed and can offer them a stable environment?  Tuck.
