I need your opinion

Posted on 04/24/09, 03:02 pm

I have a three year old son. His father and I used to be married and are currently seperated. My son's father has not seen him in almost a year and my son still talks about him. We are due to go to court next week for child support. I know that my sons father will be there and I do want my son to see him. I would like to take my son to the appt. with me however I would feel awful if my son's father ignored him and I am not sure how much damage this would do to my son. Please let me know what you think?

  I just realized that no one ever responded to your need of an opinion. I know its been a while but I would love to know what happened? Well Im new to this, but if you would really like to talk Im here. Girl Ive been through this a little over 4 years and I have an almost 5 year old son. Mon

  I just saw this and even though it's obviously very late, I still would like to respond. I hope you didn't bring your son to court with you. It's not up to you to make that move. If his dad wants to see him, he wouldn't have went a year without him. I know you want your son to be happy but if u had taken him, yes he'd get to see his father but you would have risked him not acknowledging your son. That is more painful than not getting to see him at all. Hope all went well though. It's good to be prepared for the worse.
