Hi please help me!
My son is near five his father my now ex husband left when he was months old having an affair, he now lives over 400 miles away and works abroad for periods of times. It was a horrible and very painful divorce in which I had to do everything and I was subjected to a lot of emotional abuse in saying that I always have allowed contact with our son alternate weekends with no over nights as he is so infrequently here and it would be at his mums house which is not appropriate as I believe my son doesn't deserve to share a double bed in a house he rarely sees because his dad left and can do consistent contact. Now he is demanding and threatens to enforce over night stays. I feel traumatised but I am trying to understand why he would force this. My son has seen him three times this year it is not appropriate and I fear he will be affected by this. I fully support the contact he has but he can't even do that at present and never has and I think that we are entitled to our lives too? I can't stand the constant threats of being dragged to court and the swearing and abuse he gives me because of his guilt because of his choice. I'm ok I support the contact but surely we have rights too?? Please help anyone I feel so lost!!!
