Hey sunshine. Something to consider: do what's best for your son and let the rest wash away. I don't think you need much help at this point but honestly, the important part is your son.
To do otherwise plays into your H's orchestration.
You didn't let your son go. He left. He chose. You can't change that now or at all. He has to change that. He will at some point, but you have to do what's best for him in the meantime.
When there is no action to take, take none.
Taking your husband to court? Why are you worried about that exactly? What happens if you take him to court? Do you think your son can't see? Do you think your son doesn't feel drawn to his mother? He just isn't ready yet. But your legal rights are yours to defend.
The consequences won't be worse, right? If anything, it will be more of the same. It might even be that your son will see things differently. It might be that you'll get what the court feels you deserve.
Do what's right for you at this point. Not what your H can twist against you. Not what you think your son will like or dislike. Kids are funny; they just want their parents to be happy. The rest doesn't mean much to them.
