hello and welcome.

 

What you have described sounds very frustrating! Dealing with a co-parent who isn't on the same page can be so tough, especially when it feels like they're not acknowledging your role as a mom. And having a social worker could be a good resource to help navigate these concerns and ensure your son's well-being is prioritized. Hang in there. 

 

Can I ask what sort of support network you have to talk about things with?

 

Listening

It's good to hear that you have people who are there to listen to you. But that does not necessarily fix the relationship with your ex, and I don't know what would. I assume from your initial post also, that your son lives with your dad? 

 

How often do you get to be your son?
