Hi everyone,

Sorry it has been a while but I thought I would update you on my situation. If you don't know who I am then please refer to previous posts in my name.

Here is where I am at with the situation regarding my son.

I now have one overnight per fortnight with my son. I am allowed to phone him on a tuesday night at 7pm ish. However, my son is 4 and has started swearing and the turn of phrase with it is identical to his mother. He also threatens me with telling his mother if I dont allow him to do what he wants.

His mother is becoming more erratic with her behaviour. She is not answering the phone when I phone on a tuesday. DEMANDING my sons socks, underpants, t-shirt and belt are all the SAME colour and shade of colour.

My son is hurt, confused and disturbed. I have called my lawyer to get a 3rd party involved in this by way of a psychologist before any damage is done to my son. His mother is not agreeing to it though so it looks like we will be back in court for all the good the court does. During my interlocutor with her, she has made my son unavailable 4 times for contact. I missed one because I had swine flu. I got a telling off from the sheriff and my ex got nothing from the sheriff for missing 4 contacts.

I am getting my son this Saturday and I cant wait as I have moved house in the last 2 weeks to a better area and have decorated his room up.

Hi

I wish you every happiness in your new home.  I'm sure your son will be happy with his room.

When your son is in your care, his mother can not make such demands - basically, its none of her business.  Totally understandable that you're taking this back to Court.  I'm guessing you are keeping a record of all that does go on.  Is it not possible to get a different Sherriff? 

Your son also needs to be reminded that there are different rules in his home with you compared to his home with his mother.  While he is young, he can still have swear words corrected with a phrase that sounds similar but is polite.

A total nightmare for you, I can see, and I can only hope that the Courts will put the needs of your son ahead of those of his mother.
