So I left my ex husband in September 2015, I then filed for divorce December 1st 2015. My daughter was not living with me, she was with her father and saw me every other weekend. Why? That’s a long story and not the point now. Our divorce was final in January this year and it was decided that he had full custody. But then in June this year her father told me he was moving with his new wife and baby out of state. I told him flat out that my daughter wasn’t going anywhere. He said okay. It was dropped. Little did I know that his parents were helping him hide the fact that he moved her into their home. Finally in August after knowing the truth I filed to change custody and get her back. As soon as he was served he told me to “come get your daughter” “I can’t handle her anyways”. So I did. August 23rd she came to live with me and her dad has not seen or called her while she’s been here... not until this past Friday when he texted me asking to see her. I told him to call her and see if she even wants that. But still no call. I’m not even sure how I feel about this. I know she should know her dad, I know that. She loves him, but he’s toxic and manipulative. I remember all the horrible things he used to say to his son about his first wife, it was horrible. I can only imagine what he’d put in my child’s head and I don’t know if he’s leaving anymore or if he’s staying now. I feel like he’s going to break her heart more than he already has...
