Hi ,
Know this has been asked a lot but , myself and my DD and DS Father divorced 10 years ago . And from then to now there have been constant problems .
When we split our DS didn’t want to see me anymore due to his Father dating things etc and blamed me for the breakdown in our marriage .
Our DD resides with me but , visits her Father and his family at weekends .
Now she has turned 12 she no longer likes going up there and hasn’t for some time .
My EX is now threatening getting someone involved to speak with our DD as he thinks there’s something wrong with her and there is something more too it which simply isn’t the case .
He’s been making threats at me , swearing in front of our DD .
It simply isn’t on anymore.
Is there any advice on the matter ?
Many thanks x

At 12 years old she’s too young to make this decision (about stopping contact).

He could get a court ordered contact order for her. Her wants would be listened to, but a judge may not take them into account.

What’s the reason why she doesn’t want to go? Can it be easily rectified?

Does the brother live with dad? If she doesn’t see dad then she won’t see the brother.

I would see if you can work through her concerns (both of you).
