My ex has more audacity than anyone I've ever met. He is suing me for full custody of our son, not because he actually wants him, but just to stress me out. I know he doesn't want him because he was supposed to take him the other night and when I told him that he would have to pick him up (I couldn't drop him off) his exact words to me were, "You keep him, I don't want him anyway." And that's not the first time he's said something like that.

There's no way he's going to get full custody. I've never done drugs a day in my life and if I'm not working I'm with my son. I do work a lot, but I have a live in nanny for him so it's not like he's in daycare for 12 hours a day or something like that. I swear, my therapist has been working overtime this week.

I am sorry to hear that, it definitely sounds like a control issue to me. He would have to prove you an unfit mother to get full custody so I wouldn't worry too much.

Parents tend to get too emotional (at each other) when it comes to things like this, just remember that two wrongs do not make one right. Keep in mind that things said under the breathe tend to be best.

I know he'll get nowhere with this. I am the farthest thing from unfit and he is totally beyond unfit. It's just really, really frustrating that he is so hateful. He's doing this to hurt me and to drain me financially. He has the money for this battle; I don't and he knows it. The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that he'll get his someday. He has sent out some really bad karma into the world and I know it will come back to haunt him.

Wow, what a jerk. Well stick to your guns and fight him. Don't let him get custody of your son. I hate it when split up parents try to fight over kids, especially when they are doing it to make someone else mad.

I wish you the best of luck Mom09 and don't you worry you are right and he will get his in the end. Try not to worry too much.

Good luck. Document everything-everything he says, everything he does, times and dates he refuses the little one and the reasons why. If he emails or texts you-save it. Invest in a better phone so you can save more texts if needed.

I feel for you as I am in the same situation! And I was told not to worry all through my divorce and somehow he still ended up with half custody. My ex just doesn't want to pay the child support, every time I call he isn't with my son. It makes me so angry and we have to go back to court as I want to put my son in school soon. And I agree with Lovemagirl DOCUMENT EVERYTHING!

My ex accused me of not wanting our son also, but that was not the case in our divorce. I would have to agree with the others to document this persons actions. He does not sound like he deserves the right to see his child!

The more times he refuses to take the child on 'his time' the better it will look for you in court. Document everything yes and make sure you consult your state website for friend of the court guidelines for a stable environment. I was surprised at what isn't on their for the state of Michigan.
