Help she is trying to get to my son PART 2

    Well, I left my mom's/stepdad's house tonite. I got home not long ago.

    It was me, my x, his girlfriend, my mom, my step dad, and my son(who was in another room watching a movie).

    My step dad has offered his financial backing for my x and my behalf in this battle. The only "string" is that we sue her for court costs and lawyer costs, so she can pay the whole thing for bringing this to court (which is uncalled for to begin with, so she should pay for it).

    So, I will be on the phone calling lawyers on Monday. I am so greatful to my step father. He has been wanting me to call him "daddy or dad" for about 2 yrs now (this isn't the reason he is doing this, he is doing it for my son), but I can't call him that. My reason is because I associate this "title" with my bio-father. I see this as an insult to him to call him something that I have such harsh feelings towards. The words dad or daddy make my stomach turn. I hope in time I will be able to dis -associate these words and be able to apply them to someone who deserves them.

    Anyways, If anyone has any good references to a good family law lawyer in Dallas, please let me know. I have my step dad backing me and my x to fight this, they also see this as damaging to our son.

    I will give you all another update, but this is a MONUMENTAL thing in my life to have family stand behind me, this hasn't happened in yrs. I just wanted to share this with you all.

    I want to thank everyone again for being there for me when I have needed you. I was ready to go back to the thing I hate (stripping) to make sure my son wouldn't be abused by this woman. I was repremanded by my step father for not having confidence in his being willing to help me, but this is something I am not used to. I am trying to open my arms(heart&mind) to this new idea of relying on family again. It is new to me and something I wish I could just know is there, but it takes time. Years of knowing I couldn't count on anyone but myself is hard to re-program myself to believing.

    I came to you all for support and I got it!!!!!!!! I thank you all for this (my new family), and to be able to be willing to believe in people again. You all have showed me so much love, the only way I can show you is to say thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    LOVE YOU ALL SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    I'll ask around and I'll tell Nina to do so as well. I know it's easy to say, but please don't stress over this. She doesn't have a case. Her position is one of trying to get concessions from you. Just take this one step at a time and you'll be fine.

    willing to believe in people again

    I think that's something we share in common. I have a real problem asking anyone for anything. My wife calls me counter-dependent. Probably true.

    You're surrounding yourself with good people Jes, and that's needed. Everyone needs a good support system. Usually it's family, but when family fails, then it's up to us to create our own.

    Love,

    Chris

    Glad things are starting to go your way Jesika. I can tell you with an almost certainty that you will win this case. At least you can breath a little easier now though.

    Hey Jes,

    Glad things are working out for ya.

    I would have to agree that family are all different, so I can't blame you on account of what happened to you and being able to differiciate(s?) between families.

    Sounds like your step dad is a good dad, so I'd would give the man a try.

    Hope things will work out.
