So basically I got with my child's father when I was 16. I had my son at 17. We was together for 2 years until he had an affair and disappeared leaving me with an autistic 2 year old to look after and eventually ended up homeless because I couldn't pay the rent on my own. All his family was involved up until we split when they all ignored my son and left him out of the family. I moved back to my home town with my family and my son is nearly 8 now so it's been a few years. He never sees my son or asks about him. I hear hes calling me to people in the pubs on the weekend while I'm at home with our son. So basically this month my child's father who isn't from the same town as me decided to start going to all the pubs 5 minutes from where I live. Calling me to anyone who will listen. So now I'm angry that he's got the nerve to come back to my home town where I'm raising our son with no regard for his child whatsoever. My son is nearly 8 now, and I have to walk past these pubs taking my son to school. So what happens if my son sees him what do i tell him? Ino I can't control where my ex goes what he says or anything but boy am I angry. It's took me everything to get myself where I am now with my son n I feel like he's ruining my fresh start. Out of everywhere in the world he can go n he chooses the pubs on my doorstep. He can travel to my town to go pub but can't knock on the door to see his child. Anyone else had This? And how do I just ignore it. Emotionally finding it hard he can reject my beautiful amazing son for no reason other than he's own selfishness. I just need to know I can get through this. What a bastard tho.
