Saw the priest, it helped a little bit. He said that like an addict, H needs to hit rock bottom and my co-dependency on him is preventing that from happening. He said as a friend of the family he would like to see me nail H to the wall. He said that I'm doing the right things with seeing a counselor, getting a lawyer, taking care of me and my son. He suggested cutting back on H's visitation, give him a chance to miss DS. That will help H to truly realize what he gave up. It will also curtail the problems that I'm having with DS being a bear to handle when he comes home from his father's. On Sundays when DS gets home he has tantrums, melt-downs, is just so tired and grumpy. I thought it was just part of the transition but as Father pointed out, who knows what H is telling him. He also thinks that not seeing H so often will help DS to let go of the idea of Daddy coming home. He suggested I talk to the lawyer about the visitation, I might put in a call to the counselor we first saw for DS when we split up as well.
