I've been reading other's sitch's and it breaks my heart that some fathers can't see their kids.
I have my son the majority of the time. To put things into perspective, this is how often I've seen my boy this week; which is pretty much the norm.
Sunday-spent 10 hours with my ex and my son. It was supposed to be her night with him but he spent the night at my place. Monday- all day and night with me. Ex didn't see or talk with him Tuesday-same as Monday Wednesday-I picked ex up at 6 to do taxes. I dropped the 2 of them off at her place around 9pm. Thursday- she dropped him off in the morning before she started work. I had him the rest of the day and night Friday(today)- I've had him all day and he's staying here tonight.
During the day he is either at daycare or with my mom. But he spends most nights here with me. I do night time routine, baths(I honestly don't know when the last time she bathed him!! How crazy is that!), and morning routine. On occasion she will be here for family dinner or I'll go to her place. But for the most part, s3 spends his nights here.
I'm eternally grateful I get this time with my son BUT, I feel a tremendous amount of guilt for the situation we're in. I take most of the blame for her leaving.
She should see our son more than she does right? It absolutely kills me when my son asks for grandma, or even crazier, my dog!!!!; instead of her. It's such a pain in the ass that I can't or won't tell my ex that she's being so selfish with regards to our little boy. It's exactly like watching a kid play with fire and watching him get burned. I want to say something to her but I know I'm not supposed to.
