Hi All,
Im only postin in this part of the forum as this is where the inital post of mine was posted.
As a direct result of the advice given here and a meeting with FNF, I have a small vicroty under my belt.
I am:-
- 1) Now seeing my son x2 per week for 3h30m at a time, I collect him and bring him home (ok a 40 mile round trip x4)
- 2) On the birth certificate without toooo much arguing
I still have a long road ahead as my ex will (and has) move goal posts. Small steps one at a time.
Im so happy that my boy of 6 weeks is able to see me regular 🙂
Good work and hang on in there.
Your son will grow up to know you and your ex will get used to the fact that you are there for your son and for the long haul.
She may even come to realise that it is for the better of your son and sometimes a help to her that you are there.
Regards,
Dave
Even though she's as mad as a box of frogs, i'd still like to be able to help her out where he's concerned. Absolutely.
Well done 🙂
Just keep doing what your doing and REMEMBER to be POLITE keep her sweet and ovoid any arguments.
That way you get an easy life 🙂
I am really pleased things are on the up.

mine is exactly the same jonny, parents bumped into her last week with my daughter, who i havent seen for over a year now. Parents said ex was saying how she needs 'help' with my daughter, Mother told her straight that it is up to her to go back to court, which is next friday, work with social services and sort out contact for me. Mother also told her we are and always have been, willing to help but it is her who has to sort this mess out.
Bit of blackmail, maybe, but you know, I and my parents have not moved, 0r run out of town or cut communication. So it is in her and my daughters best intrests to sort this mess out.
