Emotional abuse - can EXH force access to 14 yo DH?

15 years of coercive control in marriage with covert narc. Got out with WA support & now divorced.

No formal child contact arrangements. DD (15) spends 3 nights/week with her dad, she is the golden child. DS (14) has, over the last year, had periods of not wanting to see his dad. Since Nov has not wanted contact at all.

EXH cannot accept this. Accuses me of controlling his son & blocking access. Keeps calling DS, including from different numbers.Last straw was when he rang DD on Xmas eve and told her to put DS on the phone. Ended up in a virtual panic attack for DD who cannot displease her dad.

My question is: would a court be likely to order that DS at 14 must have contact with his dad? He is adamant he doesn’t want to due atm to behaviour he has experienced. Last time this happened I arranged a session with a family therapist who gave great advice, but EXH has ignored it all.

Am talking w solicitor Monday but it feels like a long time til then. Any advice much appreciated.

Hey, OP. We're going to move this one over to legal for you now. Flowers
