My problem is my husband and I are divorced. I have my 6 year old son at night after work and this is after he has been at his dads house. My x husband has real psychological problems. Thus many times my son comes home in odd moods...like hes is mad at me or just plain angry. When he yells at me and trys to throw things, I end up yelling at him to make him stop. Then he gets on the phone and calls his dad who believes anything the child tells him. I tried to handle this in court but gave up because psychological problems like m x husband has are hard to prove.And it would have been way to expensive.Just wondering if anyone out there has had similar problems?

dont all ex husbands have psychological problems

LOL., Hupuppy!

hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

my friend just went thru a similar type with her soon to be ex husband.

if your son is in school, ask the school guidance counceler to talk with him. they may be able to find out what stress your husband is putting your son through.

o yes i have a 9 year old and an 11 year old both boys and do the same thing. You need to start asking teachers if there is a difference at school and talk to the boys dr. explain things to them and they can for the most part set you in the right path to help.

children are smart they will figure out who is good who is not probably doesnt help alot

sounds like he is brainwashing ur son not to like you or saying bad things about you...what a jerk!!

It seems like my x husband has such a strong hold of him. My son defends him always and makes me feel like a bad mom. My x husband is crazy like a fox.One night when I lived there I called the police and they would not help me. My son had a little bruse from ruffhousing and he told the police that I did it. I have never hit my son. But when police question my x, he acts sooo normal.So the whole thing scares me.

i would document everything that happens from now on..meaning note down all the behaviors that ur son exhibits when he comes home from his dads and anything that he says..log EVERYTHING DOWN...and keep it....and u can always use it to get a TRO or go to court ...i know u say its hard to prove..but videotape it or record it(or something) ....i had to do that to get a TRO on my ex..and it worked..good luck!!

If is so worth your time to check into it. Ask your son's teachers if he has changed there. Keep files of everything you have. Believe me, it's something you need to do. When my mom and her ex husband split up, he turned my brother against my mother. Because of the fact that my mom could take better care of the kids, she had custody. However, my mom allowed my brother and sister to spend two nights a week at his house. My brother ran away from home three or four times, started skipping school, and when he was going was failing it anyway. He failed the eighth and eleventh grade. When they were around each other, he'd tell my mom how much he hated her, that she was a horrible mom and things like that. He graduated high school back in may, and the day he graduated he moved out of my moms and into his fathers. Since then my mom has not spoke to him. Now their dad is attempting to turn my little sister against my mom. It'll get harder if you don't try to nip it in the bud now...believe me.

great idea

Hi Mry...please consider putting your son in counseling. I divorced my son's dad when he was 4 and he behaved in similar ways....he would hit me and talk to me the way his dad always did. I put my son in counseling and he went for 3 years. Today my son is a happy, stable, respectful 15 year old. Just make sure that if you choose therapy, they have experience with children. Best of luck to you!

I would suggest to tape him up and put him in the closet

the x or the son?

Hupuppy,come here...I need to spank you!!!

damn I might like this

I really want to know why there is no help out there for victums of psychological problems. My x husband in the past was diagnosed with an acute attack parnoid skitzophrenia (SPELLED WRONG). When I tell the police this they say what does that have to do with now? They say the person has to be talking in tongues for them to do something about it. I have watched my x have break downs and feel sooo bad for my son who has to live with it. Thank you for all your advice it is greatly appriciated.

i would say hire a day care

and only let him have him on designated times

if behavior continues to be an issue

i am sure it is in the agreement that

neither of you are t degrade the other

if he is doing so and creating contempt

for you with him he is breaking the agreement
