thank you for all the good vibes!! Things could not have gone any better. First off, he came alone. The look on his face when my sister showed up was great. I was glad she was there. When he and I went in with the mediator he sat in the waiting room with Lorene.
I was incredibly sweet and nice, made sure that both David and the mediator knew I was not trying to keep David from seeing his dad. I did get my points across. I also got my digs in, in such a way that David will be scratching his head for a week trying to figure out what I meant.
The mediator then talked to Nick, alone. I guess Nick really opened up. They were in there for quite a while. When Nick came back out and we went back in the first thing the mediator said was directed towards David. He told David that he sees a lot of sadness in Nick, but that Nick also has a LOT of anger towards his dad. David shrank about 3 inches into his seat.
So custody is settled (for now). We have joint legal and physical, with me being the primary custodial parent. That was what I wanted all along.
I would hope he has the balls to tell the crap talkers that I did not do anyting to prevent him from seeing his son.
