thanks Toks for the advice. It can be awful especially if people around you don't understand your situation, haven't experienced a loss like you have, and start giving lame advice. like if ex is making it too difficult to see your kids and it's going to cost you, then don't bother. walk away. that could be the worst thing to do.
being away from my kids is the most painful part. so only thing you can do is fight for your rights. fight for the rights of the child to have a meaningful relationship with his dad.
Thanks Toks - that's excellent advice to step away and get yourself together, and I'm glad it worked out well for you. If anyone is in this position, it's certainly worth getting counselling, as have someone objectively giving advice and advising you how to deal with stressful situations.
