My son had a bad night..........
Yesterday was DJ's week visit with his dad. Well it was a panic attack or temper tantrum......
When he came home, he hugged his dad around his neck and would not let him go. He kept saying that he wanted to go with his dad, so David stay awhile to calm him down. He took him to his room and was talking to him. He was telling him that he love him and his sis's loved him and that mommy loves you. He then shook his head that I did not love him. So David called me to his room and showed me what he was doing. I told him that I do love him and try to calm him down. This went on for awhile, so I told my Ex that he would have to leave, and I would take care of him. Well, DJ screamed and yelled, "I want to go with my dad. Daddy, Daddy...." I had to hold him down while he yelled and screamed. He was hitting me, so I hold him and his arms. He was fighting with me, and I hold him so tight that I left fingerprints on his arms. I am wondering if I left bruise on him from holding so tight. It last for about 10 minutes. I could feel his heart beating so fast, and turned red and hot.......
He has never acted this way.....
It broke my heart, and my EX plus Sabrina saw all it......
David said that she was quiet the ride home, so I know she was affected with this..... Everybody was......
I still want to cry.......
I get so upset just thinking about it......
If anyone has some suggestions, please let me know.....
Till next time......

Oh Brin..I'm so sorry. Heartbreaking for all. No suggestions, just hugs. Let Daddy stay longer next time...that is if he's willing, and maybe it will help your son get through this separation anxiety phase hes' going through.
ReplyDeletebrin..that is something else...maybe he's stressed out with the whole divorce thing of mommylives here and daddy lives there....its getting difficult with my son..he cried and cried because i dropped him off at his moms..and he wanted to stay with me...as I sat in the car..i balled my eyes out..yes me a man, crying over his kid....So I drove home and drank 3 beers and went to bed or else i would have been up all night worrying....hope everything is better...be cool..you've been doing great since last year...take care Andrew D.E.
ReplyDeleteI wish i had some answers......i dont. I can imagine that it hurt you so much to watch his pain and tears. The divorce was hard on everyone and your son may just now be able to express his confusion. I hope he gets better! Love,lj
ReplyDeleteI think Andrew said it best, he's going thru what you are.
ReplyDeleteTake care Brin

You really hope they get used to it but they never seem to!!! A whole week with dad is out of his norm, I am sure he misses his sisters also! It is so tough and not your fault. Maybe speak with daycare and see if they have someone available for DJ to speak with. He is getting older now and is realizing his surroundings. I am so sorry you have to deal with this. See how he acts for the next couple of days. Even talk to him, believe me children understand much more than we give them credit for!!! Other than that it is not a situation I am able to give advice on, cause I ahve no clue?
