You are here

Feeling pretty low about Thanksgiving

For the past 8 years, every holiday was affected by the fact that SS was being kept from us. It definitely put my DH in a funk and it affected me as a result as well.

Now SS is back with us but not under the circumstances we'd hoped. So the general feeling in the air is of disappointment again.

I'm just taking our kids to my parents for the holiday. DH will be staying behind so SS doesn't do anything stupid.

Congrats BM, you have definitely won. There is a special place in hell for parents who do parental alienation. Nothing but destruction is left in it's wake.

I think you are blaming the wrong person here, it's your DH's reaction to alienation that has caused YOUR problems. He didn't have to "be in a funk" for eight years, just because his son wasn't around on holidays. And he certainly didn't have to yank the kid from the only home he's known and force him back into your life.

Not to say alienation isn't hard, we went through it too - but your DH could have dealt with it in a healthier manner.  I'm glad you are not sticking around for the sh!tshow this year.

This is what happens when people are more concerned with winning at any cost. This situation is not a benefit to you, your kids or SS. The only person coming out on top is your DH because he's finally "won" custody. But what is the point if everyone is miserable? I hope he realizes his mistake.
