to see his 5yr son regular? I am not married to son's father but he is named on birth certificate. he has never lived with us and has never seen son on regular basis (6mths since last seen him). Son has been upset at not seeing him so i asked father to see solicitor and confirm that he would see him at regular, mutually agreed times. He initially agreed to this but then said he will not see a solicitor and that i was causing obstacles so that he could not see his son. However, he has not proven that he wants to see son regular and son has been upset. I want my son to see his father for his self esteem but i doubt that his father will see him regular without formal agreement.He only sees his other two children (by his ex wife) because of court order. As father won't see a solicitor, and looks like he is going to blame me for stopping him seeing son, can i ask a solicitor to write to father suggesting access times and ask him if he wishes to exercise such access? Any idea of costs ( i am single parent with mortgage and other child also to support).I am open to suggestions, just do not want to expose 5yr old to any more hurt and disappointment.
