I know exactly where you are coming from. Be aware that she may not be done with you and your child.

In my case, after a PI that i hired to find her came up empty, she returned after a 2 yr absence with lies that i "kept her away," and received joint custody. Now I'm co-parenting with the covert narcissist who mentally/emotionally abused me for 5 yrs prior to leaving which i hoped was for good.. The judge even gave her all holiday time for two years to "make up for lost time." What a sick joke on me because i was the PARENT to our child for 2+ yrs (she was absent by her choice from his ages 2.5 to 4.5).

The judge "threw my son to the wolf" the day after the hearing for the summer and wouldn't hear of the possibility of a gradual introduction of his "mom." My good boy is not as happy as he once was. While I never talk bad of her to him, he's no dummy. She told him about her absence "your daddy was baby sitting." When he told me that, I asked him how he felt and he said "you were being my daddy!"

She had no reason to do things this way. It only makes me hate her more and I fear her more than anything. Not for me so much as for our son. If she really loved him, why the hell did she leave and come back into his life the way she has? Im up tonight without my son on christmas.

It's all WRONG but the judge favored her- a true wolf in sheep's clothing who I garrauntee is slowly, covertly pulling my son away with video games as his "sitter." He didn't have a care for them but introduced to them over the summer, all summer, that's ALL he wants to do now. Its all i can do to stand it.

In the eyes of the court, I am a "controlling, abusive man" (yes, the judge believes that with no truthful evidence). I am waiting for the next bomb to drop which will include a modification of custody where she lies again, gets him, then what she really wants a check and something to occupy her other child since she's remarried. That guy is really in for it because I have a feeling he could be posting similar to this one of mine in a few years.

Best of luck to you, sorry for the "rant" but your story seems so similar to mine I got on a roll.
