sometimes people stay in toxic relationship because it becomes the norm and they know no different. i am a prime example of that, having stayed in a bad marriage for 20+ years, but i was hoping, as do most parents, that my son wouldn't follow in those particular footsteps...

Yeah, I'd worry about that too. You never know who you'll get as a judge and if they're truly impartial or if they heavily favor mothers regardless of how much of a train wreck they might be. Nevermind what the mother might try to accuse him of to try to make him look bad, bald faced lie or not. Or, God forbid, make a physical/sexual abuse claim against him in regards to the child. Eventually the truth comes out, but that doesn't matter usually in a court of opinion.
