I had troubles with my ex regarding custody and visitation when they were little, too. My children are grown now, with kids of their own, so I can give you this advice:
Keep trying. You may not get to see him much now, but this situation will not last forever. What he will CERTAINLY remember is who behaved how. Who tried to see him and who prevented that. Kids aren't stupid. They figure it out sooner or later. Mine were told (and believed) horrible things about me (mostly by stepmoms), and that ripped my beating heart right out of my chest. But I was given the same advice I'm telling you now. Be patient. Be kind. My kids talk to me daily now. They rarely, if ever, speak to the ex. Like I said. They figure it out.
I know the sooner hurts, but the later WILL make up for it.
Hang in there.

I know the mother is saying all kinds of bad to him. When I last saw him he asked me a question. Just one question and I knew what she has been doing. She keeps breaking our hearts because she is not happy or healthy. Just crushes me. I know he knows a lot more than he states. I know he knows me and what I have done. I wrote something that day and the last phrase of the poem are: "What parent is to be blamed for the children forgetting the other parent? Who is to take fault for the children's destructive behaviour to come?"
So this Friday, I am getting letter supplies and write to him. Send whatever gifts I have. Some I may keep because he has probably outgrown them. Share with him at a later date I guess.
Thank you.

Thank you Tet Mates. Mrs. McCarty and I have been busy over the weekend moving out of our apartment and over into the city. We are both a little worn out from the packing yesterday. Just one more truck load and we will be moved over to one city. Save for the storage in Port Angeles, WA.
I am keeping positive. I am a bull dozer. Drinking coffee and poetry this morning.

((((Everyone)))))

My advice would be to go ahead and give them. Even if he doesn't get them, at least YOU tried. And the truth of that will come out eventually.
I know that it rips a parent's beating heart right out to know that their child is being told (and might even believe) bad things, but time is on your side. The truths always come out. They always find out, and in the end, your child will know the Wulfie we do.
