| Topic: Son chose not to go for weekend visit | |

My son(12 yo) never did have much of a relationship with his dad when we were married so this didn't really surprise me when my son informed me he doesn't want to go to his dads for his next weekend visit. I told him I wouldn't force him to go. Do you think he's old enough to decide if he wants to go for his visit or not?

Allow him to choose and only force him to go if he decides to skip two visits in a row.
A fair solution.

See what's up. |

See what's up. my ex is a very difficult person to like.. hes never had a relationship with him OR his older son from first marriage. Thinking he has no idea how to be a decent dad.. but I will suggest he talk to his dad about why he doesn't like to go. |

Yes he's old enough.
Depending on his reasons for not wanting to go, you might want to talk to the dad about it yourself or be there when your son does. The kid might feel awkward about it, esp if the relationship with his dad isn't that brilliant. |
