My ex and the father to my 2 year old son is going to take me to court. We finished a few days ago because he got another girl pregnat and walked out on us when i had come home from A&E as i hurt my eye, in a lot a pain and almost totaly blind to look after my son on my own lucky for me i managed to get my sister over to take care of us.he came over  last night just before i left he asked when i can come and see our son, and i said whenever just let me know after he left he started texting saying he was going to take me to court, which i dont understand seems i havent stopped him seeing him, and wouldnt do that. He seems to be doing it for attention what would the outcome be if i did take me if i have never stopped him ???

Hi Hardern

It's very early days, and if he wants to do things this way, then there isn't much you can do to stop him.

You know that you're being reasonable.  I sometimes think that some people like to have things set in stone, so to speak, rather than a private arrangement.

I hope you can try not to worry about it too much, as things can take a while to go through the system.

Are you able to discuss how he would like contact to be?  How would you feel if you were to offer the almost accepted every other weekend and one evening a week?

Hello Hardern

Try not to get too embroiled in what can turn into an escalating conflict. You are still reeling from the shock of your break up and recovering from your eye imjury. There is no need for him to "take you to court", you can agree parenting time between you....if he went to see a solicitor now it is pretty likely that they would say well let's set out some proposals to your son's mum.....and only if you were trying to "block" contact would he have any grounds for taking legal action.

How are you feeling today?
