Can anyone relate to how stressful and mentally and emotionally draining this is? I have a court hearing tomorrow.. I’m asking to reduce visitation because my child’s father doesn’t spend the time with her. She’s always with his mom.. and his mom is dating two guys. One of them is in prison and one of them just got out after 17 years who also happens to be her ex husbands brother. All of them are gang members and was having my daughter speak to the one in prison and say “i love you” to him. She’s such a terrible human being😫. I tried addressing this with him but like always he defends his mom and says if I cared about Our daughter, I would give him extra time with her. EVEN THOUGH HES HARDLY EVER WITH HER.

She does not have her own bed, she sleeps with his mom and currently her other granddaughter. 3 people on this bed. In the past she had my daughter sleep in between her and her previous boyfriend.. I mean there’s a lot to the story!! My daughter is always asking me to tell him that she’s sick so she won’t go with him, she tells me she doesn’t want to to☹️ so last month I asked for minors counsel and the judge granted it. When we spoke to the minors counsel I explained to him how the father is absent. And my daughter told him the same. He got busted on a dui last year and driving on a suspended license. I think court will go well but I’m so nervous and stressed😭 and just mentally drained. I’m also beginning to feel scared again.. he used to be abusive. Verbally and physically. And he just seems so angry all the time and I talk to him so calmly so that we don’t argue and he’s just over the top. Does anybody else have an ex like this? Goes to court asking for holidays and extra time even though he doesn’t even care to show for her soccer games? Even though he’s not even spending the visit time he already has? 😢 I am so tired. I just want peace. I’m a good mom.. I’ve just wanted him to be a good dad. That’s it!!!

Luckily I’ve found an amazing man. I married him last year and my daughter calls him dad. She adores him and often says that she wishes he was her only dad😔. I just wish her biological dad would leave us alone and let us have peace.
