A 7 out of 10 selfish wanker is still a selfish wanker. Of course she is nice some times, you wouldn't have as much trouble leaving someone who was vile to you all the time would you?

It is bloody sad you recognise that your DS will have a normal life the next 2 weeks away from her.

So what if she makes you look bad? Your DS is worth more than how you look. I bet your friends won't think so really.

If she does something stupid that is her choice. It is not a reason for you to stay and allow your precious child to be treated this way. If you think she will, tell her doctor. My betting is it is emotional blackmail to make you stay.

Use this 2 weeks your DS is away to arrange the split. Or consider letting him go to his dad full time if he will have him.

You DS has not choice you are his only protection.
