After long, and hard consideration, I have decided that the only option I have is to let someone else take over parenting my son. I can not mentally or physically do this anymore. I am giving custody of my 13 yo son to my dad. I think it's in my son's best interest, and I have no other option. I just hope I am strong enough to do this.

I am so sorry it has come to this, attheendofmyrope. It is wonderful that you are still trying to help your son by taking this extreme step. I hope it works well for both you and he and that in the future you can have a better/easier relationship with him.

The thing is...I KNOW this is the right thing....but I just don't know if I'm strong enough to do it.

I wish you the best and if in your heart of hearts you think this is the right thing, then it is. You can only do so much. Sometimes a new place, person, atmosphere can do wonders. You are on my prayer list. You are strong.
