Different rules at Dads

So it's become increasingly annoying that when my son (whom is 7) stays with his dad he can stay up till 10/11pm watching TV and playing Xbox. It's especially hard because when I try and put him to bed about 8/8:30 he moans every night.

His dad also tells him that if he wants to come and live with him to just ask mummy.

He gets spoilt rotten at his dads too. Treated like a king and he comes back to mine with a sense of entitlement and is so rude to me.

I know this is everything his dad says and does that's making him this way but I don't know how to mitigate this growing situation.

I have spoken to my Ex before many times and he says whilst he has the money he will spoil him. He also said that he wants our son to go and live with him (when he's 12)... Basically up root him which will be 4 hours away from where he currently is.

Does anyone else have to deal with this?... I just wish he would get lost and leave me and our son alone. He never wanted our son, begged me to abort him and then left when our son was just over a year. Yet now plays the Disney Dad and is ruining the foundations how I raised him Sad
