Hang in there honey, this will all pass! Only a case of the bad wobbles which is totally understandable bearing in mind how strong you are having to be just taking H on!

Perhaps your lawyer is only voicing her hopes for the future that it is only you and H that bring out the worst in each other and that when every thing settles down and is officially set in stone it will get better! Well only time will tell on that one..

Anyway time is much better spent teaching titch to deal with his dad, I have a very overbearing father so quite early on I had to help my lad learn to stand his ground without being rude. Bullies can often be manupulated! Yes its what they do to others but funny enough they dont often see it when its done to them.

Its important that titch knows he can talk to you about anything keep that open freedom of conversation going, dont let it get to the point where he feels he cant talk to you about dad because you will go off on one or get sad! He is only small now but if he feels he can come and say "mum, dad keeps getting me to do blah and I dont want to, how can I deal with this" you are on to a winner, not only are you teaching him dad skills but he wont get into feeling how you do now because his skills of dealing with people will give him confidence!

If you need any help on this front give me a shout!
