is a terrible mom who woefully neglects her 9-year-old special needs
son -- he can barely write, reads at a 2nd-grade level, and can't tie
his shoes -- so claims the boy's father, who's now gunning to rip
custody from "The View" host.
Jeffrey Tarpley
-- Sherri's ex-husband -- filed an emergency request in April to modify
the couple's current custody arrangement ... specifically, Tarpley
wants full physical custody of their son, Jeffrey Jr.
Tarpley
claims Sherri's non-stop work schedule -- "The View," "The Newlywed
Game," various TV acting roles, book tours, films -- has caused her to
neglect their son completely.
Jeffrey claims Sherri regularly
leaves their son with "unskilled nannies" ... as a result, he's falling
way behind in school, suffers from low self-esteem, and has to use
Velcro shoes because he can't tie laces.
It doesn't end there
... Jeffrey says Sherri also hasn't taught their son how to properly
care for himself, so hygiene has become an issue.
Jeffrey
says he desperately wants to help, but his hands are tied because he
lives in California and Sherri lives with their son in Jersey. He says
he has no time during his short visits to undo all of Sherri's bad
parenting ... so he wants Jeffrey Jr. with him full time.
Sherri
filed her own docs in response, claiming Jeffrey's an absentee dad who
deserves no part in his son's life. The judge denied Jeffrey's emergency
request, but set a hearing in July to settle the beef.
FYI, Jeffrey filed his papers BEFORE Sherri's current husband Lamar Sally filed for separation. As we reported, Lamar wants custody of his and Sherri's unborn child ... so Jeffrey's arguments could hurt her on both fronts.
