Child Abuse Story From Cheyenne in Phoenix
by Cheyenne
(Phoenix, Arizona, USA)
It was bad enough being married to a sick man who needs to put everyone down to hide from his own demons. Now he is doing it to my 12 year old son whose behavior and attitude have dramatically changed in 6 short months.
I divorced the narcissist and he is so cunning he fooled the court shrink that was evaluating him to believe I was the crazy one and got 50/50 custody.
My health took a turn for the worse 3 years ago and I lost my ability to work and have my son every other week. Being stuck in AZ alone and now very sick, I had to stay with this ex-monster so I could be with my son and not have visits in homeless shelters.
I am a big girl, I ignore his nasty comments about how ugly, fat, lazy, stupid I am but now that he's smoking pot often in secret, his mental illness is destroying my sons life.
I don't know how I can get help for my son and I when he knows how to fake his illness. He wont even allow me to take my son out to lunch (which would really be counseling appointment) because he will throw me on the street again if he gets mad.
He says my son doesn't need counseling, he says he's a lazy boy (never mind straight A's for 6 years) he says I'm the reason my son doesn't do things exactly like he does.
I need him hospitalized or committed so my son and I can get help. We need help!!!
