[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you should say ok unless you happen to ge super good friends with the mom and it would sever that friendship

Fwiw DD started at a new school in 4th and I met a new mom and heard some awful stuff about the dad. There was a protective order for a while etc. I formed an opinion ahead of time. Then I met the Dad and he’s great with his kid, super social with other parents, brings the kid to parties if it’s his weekend etc. I don’t k is the true story so I just do my best to get on with both of them.

Lady you never know what transpired in private. Many are good at masking. My ex could put on a father of the year show but he hit me and my kid repeatedly and screams insane abuse behind closed doors.[/quote]

NP. And for me, the roles were reversed and my mom was the abusive one. And a prominent local physician. This was the 80s and my dad had no chance of winning custody but he also would not have had a tremendous amount of people he could have reached out to to help with being a character witness. And my mom lied a lot about my dad.

While it is true that men can be abusers and hide, it is also true that women can weaponize divorce for custody.

I'm not sure what I would do here OP but I would seriously consider it for sure. I think I would be willing at least to meet with the attorney. [/quote]
