asjl Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 my estranged husband of 13 yrs has hardly been a part of my childrens life, yet, he puts down my parenting skills. he says my daughter has low self esteem and blames me. he says my son has poor hygeine, again, blames me. however, recently my son went for a visit and he was flicking his lighter at him burning some hair on his arm. my son says its only out of fun. and the 4 days he had him, he was not allowed to take a bath or shower, something i enforce at home. while at his dads, my husband told my son that his sister is so fat she has her own zip code. he constantly puts my daughter down about her weight. to her face. his neice instant messages my daughter and calls her names i cannot repeat on here, he does nothing about it. says its kids stuff although it makes my daughter upset. my daughter now refuses contact. my son still wants contact, and looks up to his father. i am stuck concerned for my son, yet i dont want to be the bad parent and not allow contact by going to court or having supervised visits. any suggestions?

I don't mean to sound harsh and this is my opinion only, but I believe you will be the bad parent if you DON'T go to the courts. Link to post Share on other sites
tiki Posted April 26, 2005 Share Posted April 26, 2005 Don't make the daughter go. And in the meantime, try to instill any type of moral value possible with your son. You've already got a head start. Link to post Share on other sites
