Co-Parenting or Hide and Seek? My Ex Keeps Disappearing! 😩🎢

Some days, co-parenting feels less like teamwork and more like a never-ending game of hide and seek. My son's dad was gone for years, and just when I thought he was finally ready to step up, he started vanishing again—blocking me after every disagreement, only to reappear weeks later, acting like nothing happened. I've tried everything—heart-to-heart talks, even mediation sessions (which he never showed up for). Now, with a court application in hand, all I want is for my son to know I’ve done everything possible to help him have a relationship with his dad. It hurts so much to see my child stuck in the middle, and I keep questioning if I’m making the right choices. Have you ever felt trapped trying to do what’s best for your child, but the other parent just makes it impossible? Please share your stories or advice below. Sometimes, just knowing someone else gets it makes all the difference. 💬 #coparenting #familystruggles #parentingjourney #FamilyRelationships
