Nc for this.
I’ve raised my son alone for 15 years. I left his dad due to DV. His dad has shown little or no interest in his son over the years and hasn’t paid for him.
He has always had a stronger focus on me. Recently his dad has shown more interest but disappointed him on his bday. This caused an argument between us. Since then his dad has been brainwashing my son and turning him against me. My son has said he wants to live with his dad as his dad has told him things like doing the dishes is slave labour and grounding him is enforced imprisonment. He’s dad told him they can apply for benefits now, he told his son that I get lots of benefits for him, however I earn too much to get anything other than child benefit which goes straight into my sons pocket. I feel that my son is being manipulated and used. I have a court order, I’m wondering if that also means I am the resident parent? I would also like to know what my options are in regards to becoming the primary Carer? Any advice thanks
