I have been with my partner for 19 years for at least the last ten he has been a heroin addict and this has led to him being in prison for almost 7 years on and off. My son is 15 and loves his dad, (i also have an 18 year old girl and another 11 year old son). i have never had anything to do with drugs and stayed with their dad because I really loved him and thought it would get better. I have brought the children up on my own basically with their dad popping up every so often. He has just come out of prison after three years and moved in with us however aftre four weeks it is obvious things have changed I no longer need him or think i even love him anymore. He wouldnt get a job he started mixing with the wrong people again and made it obvious he was just using us, he even said he never wanted to come home but to get a flat so i told him to leave. Unfortunately my son has said he wants to be with him, his dad is on licence till 2010 and is not a good influence on him. I understand he wants to be with his dad but it hurts aftre all i have done for him. I am trying to keep calm and have told John he can come home anytime but is his dad able to keep him with him when I am his legal guardian? Who do I go to for help? what should i do i dont want to push my son any further away.
