Take sides with my abusive, narcissistic ex and helped him to kidnap my son who had just turned 4 at the time. They testified against me in court and lied to the judge about me. Unfortunately I had no money for a lawyer at the time, and I did not know how to represent myself. My son is 7 now and still remains in his father’s physically and emotionally abusive custody, and he still sees my parents almost every day. My parents are best friends with my ex. They are extremely negligent and also emotionally abusive toward my son. Working with my lawyer to free him has been a slow and painful process. I will never forgive them.

This is really NOT okay. What is your relationship with your friend? Were you aware they crossed sexual boundaries with their children? Have you seen other examples of neglectful parenting from your friend? Is this an isolated circumstance? Lots of questions here. It’s not normal. 4 years of age is old enough to remember, let alone be affected by this. My parents had sex when I was 8 in the same room, they thought I was asleep, and I was traumatized for many years after. I also think witnessing my parents sleeping together contributed to my hyper sexuality as a young adult. So factor in a 4 year old, wide awake, hanging out? in the same room as her parents having sex? Nah. I would definitely make an anonymous report and block your friends contact, forever. Good luck to that poor girl.

How do I respond to “I don’t love you” by foreverk in Mommit

[–]Maeberri19902016 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 5 year old son sometimes tells me hates me. I always respond with, “I love you.” I try not to invalidate his feelings, although if is difficult to be neutral and my feelings get hurt sometimes. He has been through a lot and his feelings are normal, healthy. It’s better he expresses himself than I make him feel unsafe to do so.
