Well I asked ex if I could have my son for Christmas, I don't think that was to much to ask. He said no, that he doesn't trust me and that it seems like my family doesn't really care about him any way. I don't think it was to much to ask to beable to spend time with my son ALONE for one day. He says that this decision is based on the fact that I have been in and out of treatment centers for mental health over the past year, and because I haven't spent any lengthy time with my son in the past year. So pretty much if I want to spend time with my son I have to do it with the ex present otherwise I can't be trusted with him. It wasn't even that I wanted him at my house for christmas, I wanted to take him to my family get together so he can see his cousins and aunts and uncles, but I guess I will have to make other plans. I have tried to call to speak with my son, but no one has been home when I have called. I am heart broken right now, thats all I can say. To me it seems like such a simple request and it would give ex a chance to have a day off, but I guess not.
