Mishka, I know that others may not agree with me but forget about what he may be doing, i.e. if he is trying to hedge his bets with legal action. If your state has the same laws as mine, you can only get a spouse for abandonment if there is no contact at all for a period of time. As soon as a phone call occurs or anything else of that nature, the clock starts over.

When it comes down to it, there could be more of a reason he came back home than his guilt for your son. He may not even be aware of the real reason except maybe God is working on Him and telling him he is doing something wrong. Many times I have felt compelled to do something or say something and I have no idea why. This may be a subconscious action on his part.

Try to not focus on the what ifs. Focus on yourself and your R with God. Your H is going to do what your H is going to do.

And by the way, I am sorry your mom is there all the time. It is difficult enough dealing with marital issues and not having to take care of someone else (other than your children). Keep the faith, Mishka!
