D was nasty, X was a cop until caught in woods with MOW, made to leave force. Chief of Police was made to leave also for coverups for him. X girl friend tried to get warrant on me for going to talk to her H in near by Fl. Sheriff officer came out but after hearing my story about MOW just left, we lived in AL she would have to file in Fl. her H told me it was ok to come on propery & talk. Our 13 yr old was there when the officer came out, MOW H told us ahead of time what X & his W was up too. X told our son he was leaving to be with MOW but now has tried to make him think they were just friends & fell in love. X told me it was just oral sex with MOW our son was in the room when he said it, but now tries to tell both of us he didnt say it. X promised everything just to leave & be with MOW. Changed mind at D hearing. Everything out of X mouth that he promised our son was a lie. while we live on $700 til feb then $490. H makes over $42,000 bought MOW a car while we were still M with sons college money, nice engagement ring. I had to have a plain band because X mom didnt have a diamond one, she got one after they were m 20 yrs X was tring to do the same. We lived in fixeruper homes, OW is now saying they are looking at homes at least $100,000. Son hasnt seen dad since the first of July 2002, we now live 7 hrs away. son wants to go before Fl. Judge & not be made to see his dad. Dad has not called our home to talk with his only child since around may 2001, no emails, no letters. x got joint custody but only picked him up on sun mornings. Our son found out from MOW kids that his dad takes them places when he was too tired to take his son anywhere. X has not let our son meet OW they are now engaged & have been living together since Jan 2002. My problem is this weekend I need to go to al to change cars, its in our d. Son doesnt want to see his dad & is scared to death. son finially told me he didnt want me to go because dad will shoot me. I told him he wouldnt but did call him back to make sure it was done on the fl side. I dont trust his police buddies in al. told son dad would not do anything in front of him. X has always got his friends to do his dirty work. son told me he is afraid dad will shoot him because that would be the only way to hurt me. Has anyone had this problem with teenagers & the way they act to the parent that has left home, lied & now with the other person. Ive not say one word bad about x to our son. I knew there would be trouble when X got engaged to OW. Son told dad before he left us that he would hate him if he left. son says he hates this woman who broke up his home. our son did ask me to bring something to spray on the seats in case they had sex on them. I know he needs to talk with a DR. but we cant afford it. Im a little afraid that our son may do something to his dad if he gets too close. Ive ask X to just park the car, walk away from it not contact is to be made unless our son wants to talk with him. I do plan to park far way from him, leaving the keys in the car.

Your son sounds in deep distress over this. I have expirience with this same type of thing. My oldest son was very angry with his father-stangely enough, he began to use womenin his adulthood(not what I expected from the way he used to be)

He needs to talk to a man-maybe clergy. Try to find a local minister(not a priest NO OFFENSE CATHOLICS OUT THERE) Ministers will usually help young men work out there anger and at no cost-they want to help. I feel for you because I know what divorce can do to a child. It was harder on my older children than the grade school or below age. It took them longer to adjust and I now see the lifelong affects it had on them.

Hang in there and give yourself and son some TLC-you both deserve it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />
