My child’s father is brain washing my five year old daughter, because he is made that I moved on with somebody else, he has make false alagations against me, he has made inappropriate sexual gestures to my daughter, and no law will do anything about it, and I need help, and it is killing me, and hurting my daughter.

This is the utmost betrayal on a human spirit. I thought i was alone and found this website. I have no family but really close friends.

My son has been mentally abused by his father for 17 years. I sat back hoping something would change or that this mans heart would see his child in pain.

My son has now turned to drugs and even that will not make his father stop! now he just says I am the one who made our son do it. and ignores the serious signs that my son is going down quickly. The vicious lies he has bestowed on anyone who will listen, now has made my atempts for help unanswered. I can’t sleep at night and all I know is I feel I raised my son to be a good man and hope that will prevail.

We have laws for consumers that are wronged by companies yet emotional and mental abuse on children is far neglected.

If i could have one wish, it would be my son able to be loved by both his parents.

I have been with my other half now going onto 7 years. I have 2 kids one from him and they other from my ex. He has 3 kids 1 is his and 2 is not. He said that he loves all the kids the same but I think other wise. I think what is best is if only he spoke and did thinks with his daughter to regain what ever was lost in that time. I on the other side of the fence don’t want to deal with the other kids. I know it might seem a little cold hearted of me. To me its to much stress and the last time that they spoke she tride to put him in jail. And everytime he wanted to see the kids she would say no, no, no, and know she say yes, there was other times when he started to go over to see the kids it wound up one time a week, two times a week, I need a ride to work more than once. you can take the kids and here is their laundry basket, and I need money we are going to get kicket out. Does anyone out there feel what Im trying to say. And I could make the list longer. Its from all these thing that has happend that I don’t want to deal with his ex life at all and only his daughter I would rather have me kids play together. If any one can give some edvice on how to better handle the situation please give me a call. My number is (702) 764-0078 and thank you for reading my distess.

@Carol, May 2, 2010. I know EXACTLY what you are talking about. I belief my 15 year old grandchild is being brainwashed. The mother has told me that she can’t visit me until she is 18. I could publically bring the mother down but won’t because I don’t want to cause any emotional abuse to my grandchild. We (my side of the family including my son) have only tried to be helpful towards the mother and two other “fatherless” children. This alienation has been going on for 5 years now. I don’t know how to break through the entire mess.

I get so tired of seeing things like this going on and none of it is eer the woman’s fault. I know first hand about brainwashing and children being pawns in a divorce. I’ve seen it with my daughter-inlaw and her mother with my grandchlildren. But you never see or hear anythingabout the man being the victum like my son has been with his ex-wife. I fought for women’s rights and many of you women who enjoy those rights today do so because of women like me and your grandmothers who fought for them. We fought for equal rights for women and men- not one sided- just because you are a woman- like it is today. That’s the court system with women today like my daughter in-law who abuses the very rights I fought for her to have. Someone plese recognize these too- there are far more of them by women like her then you think. The very things you say onhere that men are doing- she is doing and has gotten away with for years against my son and his children icnluding keeping him from talking to them or seeing them. The lies she’s told them- my 15 year old grandson calls me by my first name- because his mother tells him to. Talk about disrepectful. There are many descent men who are abused just like there are many descent women- but you never see them or hear about them or what they go through.

I have a now 5 year old daughter. Her bio dad wanted nothing to do with her and i know bcuz i tried to involve him and every attempt was shot down. So I left it alone. I was with a man named James thru my whole pregnancy whom id already had a 2 year old son with. The day Kira was born James was the first one 2 hold her and then i saw him drop tears of joy. She wasn’t his by blood but when i saw him look at her with adoration i realized she did have a daddy and it was jasons loss and james’ gain. In our eyes she was his baby girl. I got myself in a bind after a nasty divorce and had no job, no car and no suitable living arrangements. Jason had married and his new wife wanted a child so jason learns of my financial trouble and with his well off parents’ money to back him up he takes her from me at 4 yrs old. An ignorant judge awarded custody to a man who wanted nothing 2 do with her and he didnt even know her. On top of that he was facing charges 4 a 2nd dui. What kind of judge gives somebodys baby to people she dont even know and forces her 8 hours away from the only family shes ever known. They got her last year and have been refusing any contact with any of the family she once had. They tell her that tracy and james arent mommy and daddy that him and lisa are. They took away all her photos of us and her 2 brothers. They want her to 4get us but i wont allow it 2 happen. As her mother i have rights and it wont be long b4 he hangs hisself with another dui. I just hope my daughter doesnt get hurt in the process. I am angry with the judicial system that decided money was more important than a childs well being and best interest. Shame on you judge Dixon, Madisonville, Tn. Maybe if you put down that 8ball of coke a min. and clear your head u might have actually been able to do what was best for my sweet baby girl.

My parents are siding with my ex. They hate my husband and have been telling my two year old not to call him dad like he has been for over a year. They say bad things about both of us in front of my son, have threatened me also. Yet, my ex says he is in control and is denying me my summer visitation. I am going to a lawyer to receive help.

Please my daughter is experiencing all of the above..He has cheated on her from day one (she has proof of this) and now that she has decided to divorce him, he is telling the children that she has been the one doing all this (which is far from the truth). He is the most controling person I have ever met in my 67 years, also liar, cheater, no morals, values; but he is brainwashing his 11, 9, and 6 year old telling them that my daughter and whole family are not worthy of them.

Hi Linda!
I know exactly how you feel… I feel I am in the same boat as you are. I live in Northern California and have been married to my husband for 13 yrs. I got two children ages 8 and 12 years old. I feel half of America deals with the same situation because of the economy. I have Lupus Sle for the past five yrs and my husband was in a big company layoff last yr after making a six figure salary we are now trying to save every penny just for rent and food. I am working part time one hour a day and my husband is jealous of me that I even have a job with my medical condition that I work for the past four yrs. Everything is in competition with him. Who is the better parent. I went to college and earned a certificate for child care while I was in the hospital too one yr to complete my schooling and I feel that in some way instead of support I feel there is jealousy because I am a fighter and want to get stronger because of my lupus and I am left alone in the end. we had a house and now we had to sell it last yr because of my husbands work and move closer to my moms house since I have my medical condition. My husband hates it where we live too. I have connections with ballroom dancing , church and the YMCA. I feel every time I try to make myself feel stronger and better I feel put down by everyone and get no support from the family. I need support with the lupus too. So I know how you feel all alone. And being blamed for everything. When you try your best.
Have a happy new year and try to make connections outside your home so you are not lonely. Friends also count. Even though you have problems at home and try to make it perfect.

Wish i had seen that show. I don’t know how to protect my grand from the dispicable stuff that’s being fed to him by my soon to be ex son in law who is still – after 11 months – thinking there’s going to be a reconciliation. Daughter and grand moved in to regain some strength and he’s attacking her the only way he knows how – thru a 5 year old!! There should be a law. Emotional abuse is as bad as physical abuse. For better or worse child tells us about the ‘promises’ he has to make to ‘DADDY’ God give us strength. The man is vile to abuse a child for his own gain.
