[QUOTE="flutterbee, post: 68773"] And when your son is 16, he'll not want to spend any time with him and your ex will blame you for bad-mouthing him to his son. Oh wait, sorry...that's my situation. They sound so much alike I was confused for a moment. [img]:wink:[/img] I told ex I don't have to say a word; he does it all by himself. Kids are quick to catch on to these things. I'd check into the medications thing, like Lisa said...that's a good idea. It was also written into our divorce papers (ex's idea...what a joke) that there would be no bad-mouthing of the other parent (ok, so it's worded better, but you know what I mean). He used to highlight sections and mail it to me. It was my form of entertainment for awhile. You know what a guilty conscience will make one do. Like I said, I never had to say a word to my son about how his dad is. He saw it for himself. However, I know for a fact that my ex did it often. He did it in front of me once and my son turned on him so fast. Never knew my ex's eyes could open that big. Jerk. I hate to break it to you, but it doesn't get much better as time goes by. My son has been home from his dad's for over a month and he spent 3 hours tonight telling me how miserable he was there, how he thinks they don't trust him, don't like him, etc, etc. Tonight was the first time he really talked about it. I got bits and pieces while he was down there (Atlanta)...we chatted online almost every night the last 2 weeks he was there. But, he keeps things in and doesn't let it out until he just can't stand it anymore. Breaks my heart, as I'm sure yours is, too. I'm glad your boy is home. Give him extra hugs. [/QUOTE]
