What does a BM need to hear???

Youngest SS, 12 is very screwed up. BM admits that she tries but can't control him. We have offered time and time again to send him back to us. SHe often uses us as a threat to him if he doesn't shape up. What does she need to hear from us in order to send him back here. We have tried everything, this kid needs a change in enviornment to at least have a chance. Any advice from BM's, what would you need to hear or be reassured of to let your son go to live with their dad????

Thanks Steve, Same here in Illinois. The court is very mom centered. I agree that little ones do need their mom, but they also need their dad just as much. It is a shame that the courts can say a % of the year is enough time to see your dad. I find that I become a fathers rights activist more and more each day. Best regards!

We were in the same situation as you....3 times. BM couldn't control SS...used us as a "threat" if he didn't behave...everytime we got things going, BM backed out....til this last time. BM gave SS a HUGE say about him changing primary households. Perhaps SS can influence BM's decision to let things happen and allow SS to come live with you.
Of course, that doesn't mean BM won't try and change SS's mind (in our case, BM continually tried to change SS's mind until the day he moved in here)....it will depend on your SS.
