... that beacuse my father's son and I never married, he has no rights to our son unless he takes me to court to get parental rights?
We've been separated for 5 years now and, at first, he didn't seem to give a damn about out son.
Now, all of a sudden, "I'm his dad, I have rights".
At present, my ex has him every third weekend. My son isn't happy as he's never been close to his dad. I've tried explaining the upset this causes, but he's not very understanding saying that he's fine when he's there.
I don't want to have to force my son to go.
My family/friends say that I have the final say with matters concerning my son and if I decided that he doesn't go to his dads, he can't do a thing.
Can anyone shed any light?
Much thanks for reading.
