Hi,
New to this forum but hoping to get some down to earth advice.
Am a single mum of three children. The youngest is 4 months old. DAd and i never lived together but were always in good contact. He kind of took on father role for my two older ones as dad not around.
We had youngest together on the accord that he would live with me and dad could see him whenever he wanted.
A few days ago, dad decided to babysit youngest at my house. So far he had had all kids every other weekend without sleepover.
On this said day,he arrived really angry and threatened to take me to court if i did not give him the right for the youngest to sleep over his. He had asked to takethe youngest to sleep over his that night.I am not breastfeeding but leaving such a young baby is very difficult for me. Have agreed to sleepover every other weekend although the prospect really frightens me.
This sleepover should help the bonding of baby and dad.
HOWEVER: the threat of court has really scared me. A usually easy to talk to person has all of a sudden turned into someone who seems unapproachable. All trust built up over hte last 3 years or so has completely vanished.
He used to work for a family lawyers and i m really worriedthat he will try to get primary care of the little one......
Is this a realistic fear???????
