Braveheart thanks for your reply, yes I am aware of why he is wanting to negotiate a settlement, yes over here he could stand to lose a lot if my claim wins, but it wasn't me that said we couldn't be adults and discuss this as parents should do you know all grown up and amicable, it was he that decided he was the big guy, not to talk and communicate with son and I, it was him that decided he wanted to be the big hitter and drag it through the courts, I have come so far in this now and I intend dragging what I can from him and not for my sake but for my son's sake, whatever we get will be compensation for him not supporting his child through this, he still hasn't paid a penny for his son's food or clothes or anything, I shall stick it out and go for what I can, to hell with him he wont be getting any sympathies from me.
