Hi everyone, I have never tried these online forums before but it seems this is my last resort as I am extremely confused as to what is the right thing to do for my 4 and half year old son.
Situation: Married for 7 years, moved out of the house in Nov 08' due to repeated domestic violence, extreme verbal abuse and mental torture. Filed for divorce in April 09'. After 2nd court hearing and temporary orders by judge to give child/spousal support, ex took all his money to his native country and filed for divorce there. So, now dealing with 2 attorneys in 2 different countries, becoz of the jurisdiction, neither of the court decision is applicable in the other country. Nonetheless, after 2 months of suddenly moving back to his country, ex now wants me to close the case in US, agree on 50% school fee split and thats it, no child/spousal/division of assets...My son misses his dad but does not make it obvious coz he has witnessed so much abuse. My son wants me to get back to ex, if I promise that i will not cry. He is so mature at this young age and I wonder if I should drop the case in US, let my ex be around my son and have a father figure in my sons life. Ex has been very nice to my son.
Confusion: What is the right thing to do? My ex did contempt of court by moving money and he knows he cannot come back and be around my son until i drop the divorce case. He earns 3 times more than what I earn. But I make decent enough to give my son a normal life. Whenever I ask my son if he wants his dad to come back, he always replies " What do you want mumma, I will do whatever you wanna do"
