@b%C3%ACnh1889 Why would a 9 year old make up a story like that about her own father? And, even if she did make up a story like that, that's indicative that things between her and her father must be pretty toxic if that's the lengths she needs to go to draw attention to the problem. Kids don't...

@cturtle If you have a good relationship with them, then perhaps you need to sit down with both of them over coffee, explain that, aside from being illegal, giving your child any prescription medication that was not prescribed to them is a hard boundary that you never want crossed again. If they...

@daydreamer1980 It sounds like you're going to be just fine then. From what you describe, I can guarantee you that that baby is growing up to have a special bond with you as his father, and no one else will ever come close to filling that role with him.

@daydreamer1980 Honestly, I think you're over thinking this. Who puts your son to bed? I used to put my son to bed, every night. We had a routine, I'd bath him, dress him, read him a book, and then sing to him as he fell asleep in my arms, before I put him down into his bed. That was my...

@danisean69 Has he raised concerns about not seeing the kids enough? Because this is his problem to deal with, not yours. I don't understand why you're asking about it on Reddit when it's not your problem.

@tricky Document and go back to court. That's your only option really. Police don't generally get involved in custody disputes unless explicitly ordered to by a judge.

@lalei That's not the threat he thinks it is. It's like saying, "If you attempt to fight me, I'm going to lie down and let you win." If you take him to court, and he doesn't show up, the judge will most likely award you whatever orders you want as long as they're within reason. Anyway, if you...

@lalei With someone like that, the only thing you can really do is go to court. How much custody does he have? Probably the ideal scenario would be for his custody to be reduced to supervised visits. The best thing you can do is go talk to a lawyer about what's possible.

@ryanafshar You need to talk to a lawyer, but I think she's overstepping. Unless she can provide evidence from a doctor that this is a medical decision, I think she's wrong, and if you want to get back legal responsibility for medical things, this is something that you could use against her to...

@mandyanddave This is so normal. Kids that age are still learning to regulate their emotions. When you're away from someone you love, do you ever get a sudden urge to see them, or tell them something? Of course, that's normal. But, as a mature adult, you remind yourself that you will see them...
