Starting two threads in one day?! You are completely right in thinking it's a quiet day at the workshop...However. I've just had a phone call that's left me a bit shaken.
The CSA just called. I contacted them a week ago about DS's father, hoping to get some money out of him. Amazingly, quickly, they got on the case, and contacted him today.
Now, for most of the time DS has been alive his father has disputed paternity. The fact that he has no grounds for suspicion whatsoever, and that DS is his spitting image, have been no bar to his lies.
However, we did go together to register the birth and out him on the BC when DS was born- because he asked to be on the BC!
Now, it seems, he's telling the CSA he's not on the BC. Because that can't be checked, obviously. (hmm) .
Thing is, I'm pretty rattled, because the only conclusion I can come to now is that this man is not only immoral, not only a liar, emotionally abusive and totally uncaring about his tiny son, but also completely mad. I am now worried about what else he could be capable of doing.
