Haven't been on here for ages sorry (and have name changed) but could do with some advice. DS came home from spending the weekend at his dad's this evening and all of his clothes (especially the ones in his bag) smell of marijuana. This is the second time I've noticed this recently.
XP was (and probably still is) a very heavy pot smoker and this was one of my many concerns about him having contact with DS. We went through a lengthy and awful court case and this is a definite breech of the conditions that were set.
Just to clarify - my suspicion is that he is 'growing his own' in the house, rather than having an occasional smoke (which I'm sure he does all the time). So in addition to the impact the pot may have on his parenting abilities I am also worried about whether people are coming into the house to buy it, potentially in front of my son, and whether DS is being told to keep quiet about this.
Maybe I am being over anxious, but XP has a lot of history of this sort of thing. DS is 6. XP now lives with his current partner and their younger child.
Thanks for reading.

I would take the clothes to police tomorrow and report your ex.

Yes, thanks Cestlavielife. Can't believe he's being so stupid.

What cestlavielife says - it just isn't worth the risk having your DS in that environment. Take clothes to the police and tell them what you are worried of.

police non emergency number to report your suspicions. they need quite a bit of evidence though to act. they did raid the flat downstairs when several neighbours complained.
