Hi all, I'm just after some advice my 6 year old son hates going to his dad's house to sleep he's come back a couple of times and said he's dad's girlfriend has hurt him once she went into the bedroom and grabbed his arm and the second time she pulled his ears he has perforated eardrums as he has grommets, and my 6 year old has also told me that his dad's girlfriend has said that she doesn't like him etc. But as you can imagine his dad's side of the family have all called him a liar! I've stopped him from sleeping at his dad's he's only aloud to stay at his nan and grandads he hates going there to I've.asked him why and he says it's incase she hurts me again I've spoken to his nan and grandad and they have said that if I dont make him go there going to take me to court to get visitation rights! My question is if it went to court would the courts listen to my 6 year old son or am I gonna have a fight on my hands to keep my son safe as that's my top priority!! X

The grandparents will go to court for themselves to get access to the child? Grandparents don’t have any legal rights, but if a relationship between them and a grandchild can be shown (such as you sending your child to their house, over a period of years), they could indeed be allowed continued access, for the benefit of the child.
Did you report the assaults of the child to anyone?
