Yes thats where I am now. He is 20 and in prison, his father was and is useless I was egg cook and bottle washer, I took him to all his appts I went to all parents evenings. I could go on and on and on about the things I did for him and his father did nothing.

Yet he does not want me to visit him he wants his dad to. He says I left his father and am keeping the children away from him. This is a lie. He never phones them he never visits unless I take the children to him. I have told my son this with carefully chosen words as I dont want to run his dad down as I know I will be told off about that too.

I cant win ....

I am very unhappy about things.

My mum (his nan) had a phone call this morning in which he ran me down again and she got angry at him told him a few home truths and put the phone down on him, it wont make any difference as he makes his mind up and thats that.

I feel I have given my all to this child for nothing.
