Re: Custody Issues and protecting our daughter | | This issue is close to home for me, too. Here in our area, emotional abuse isn't given the same protection as physical abuse. But that's exactly what this is. Using this child to deal through his own issues. Creating problems for her, instead of helping her. And overall doing a poor job of parenting. It's incredibly sad.
The only advice I can give is DOCUMENT EVERYTHING. We have had to reduce visitation once (and may have to do so again). It has been an invaluable tool when trying to show patterns of bad parenting.
Good luck, though. It's a terrible thing to have to live through. Both yourselves and seeing an innocent child having to deal with it. |
