Hi, i'm new here to the boards and didn't know where else to go for help. The situation is this. I have a 17 month old son. I'm no longer w/ his mother but we pretty much have a shared custody agreement. (She has full but I get to see him week on / week off ) So my folks have done the daycare for him since he was 3 months old. They dont charge us for the daycare and at first this was amazing. But now, things have started to change. They get way more involved then they should. It's almost like they are trying to take over. They are constantly making rude comments to me about my parenting and talk about my ex and how bad of a parent she is (when she isn't around...they are VERY too faced and i'm sure they do the same to me when she's there and i'm not) They are also always telling us how to do this and that. I dont get along well with the ex so they are constantly playing off of both of us to keep us segregated and in control of our son. They are very manipulative and have even threatened to file for "grandparents rights" if we decide to pull him.
This would all be an easy situation to remedy by pulling my son except that i'm financially tied to my parents. I went through a year long custody battle in order to see my son as much as I get to and now i'm in debt up to my ears. They are helping me with my rent for the next few months and if I pull him not only will they take away the rent money but i'll have to find a new daycare and pay more money that i dont have.
The only light I see at the end of the tunnel is that he starts preschool in October. He'll be going until about noon 4 days a week with my parents picking him up at that time (because both myself and his mom have to work until 430) Eventually i'm going to push for full days so he's just at preschool all day and he wont be subjected to their sick behavior.
Does anyone have any advice i'm so frustrated!
