Not sure where to begin...

6 weeks since we have had visitation with ss14. It hasn't been from lack of dh trying either. Ss hasn't visited because there is always something going on that he wants to participate in....major sporting events, out of state school band competitions, etc. Bm has threatened to shoot dh if he tries to come pick up ss. All because dh was a week late paying CS. I'm just ready to give up. There are more details, but it would take me all day to write. Ugh!

Ss will be 15 in less than 2 months. Can he decide not to visit dh?

Thanks tog. We are trying. Ss doesn't have a working cell phone that we know of so can't call/text him directly. Dh may have to write letters and hope that he gets them if things don't change.

Unfortunately we didn't get a recording. Lesson learned although dh says he will never speak to bm again after the way she threatened and screamed obscenities at him.

I'm not sure what to think about ss. He used to always want to visit before my dh lost his high paying job and struggled to find another job with lower pay. Now we don't have extra money to do all the fun things we used to so I'm thinking that it's probably not as fun at dad's house anymore. That was two years ago and I've noticed his visits are less and less, unless it Christmas or his birthday. I really hope bm isnt keeping him away every time visitation rolls around but she is certainly not helping and could care less about ss time spent with dh. She has no problem fending him our way when it's convenient for her...weekend away at the beach without kids.

Yes they are things he wants to do. Dh allows it because we can't afford to take him to such events. Dh has tried to get him on other weekends and ss is usually busy going somewhere...tickets to such and such event. Dh and I both go to ss home games unless we are working.
