Wondering if anyone has any advice or experience of this?
I'll try and keep it quite non specific as I don't want to out myself and I've nc.
Moved in with my boyfriend around two years ago. His children come and stay regularly. My children live with us full time.
One of his children has suddenly started refusing to come and stay with us. Has a big tantrum and refuses to get in the car with their dad. He doesn't want to force them into the car or lose his temper. The child has been allowed to not visit a few times now.
My boyfriend only wants the best for his child but doesn't know what to do about this.
I can't think of anything that has changed to have made this happen. I wonder if it has just sunk in that my boyfriend and his ex aren't getting back together and the child is finding this hard. They have been split up for a good few years and I was on the scene way after they split. We have no children together and don't plan to, so no issues there.
Has anyone had this and how have you sorted it out? Child is 9 by the way
