[QUOTE="ck1, post: 110155, member: 3767"] I totally understand not wanting to upset her and I agree with you. But, if you think that this might be something needed in the future, doing it now while things are good, may work in your favor. It's great that she trusts you and enjoys her breaks. I would encourage this as much as possible and start documenting how often you have your granddaughter. Unfortunately, some people use their children as bargaining chips or try to punish you and not let you see her. When my difficult child was maybe a year old, his dad and I were engaged and supposed to be getting married a few months later. I knew this wasn't going to happen because he was so abusive, I just wasn't ready to tell him yet. He thought things were going well. I told him I was updating my will and I needed him to sign a paper. He did, giving me full physical and legal custody. I don't know if he didn't realize it or didn't care, but since then I've always had full custody. If I did this after I broke up with him or while we were fighting, he wouldn't have signed because he would have wanted to give me a hard time. Not my proudest moment, but I did what needed to be done to protect my baby and that I have never regretted. I know today will be hard without your son...I hope you able to enjoy your day though!! Merry Christmas! [img]:santa:[/img] [/QUOTE]
