I read my kids books that were directed towards talking and support through divorce. Even though we didn't get divorced. I did leave him for 8 months and then he went to jail for 6 months (so 14 months apart) then he was home for 30 days and then shipped off half way across the USA for another 12 months to get away from the drugs in our area. (old friends, contacts, etc.) Then back to jail. My husband is an IV heroin addict.

What his mom did is totally unacceptable. Your son shouldn't be dragged through a war between anyone. He's half of you and half of his father - and that will always be that way. There are ways to get the courts to help you.

I would take your decisions slow and just try to keep as peaceful as you possibly can around your son. He will obviously know his dad isn't living there... but one day at a time. One day at a time. Good luck!
