That just seems ridiculous to me so men get to run away from there responsibilites its hard enough being a single mother the courts should really do more
he loves his child and he does say things like hell take him from 6 to 7 one evening a week
cookiedough have a read of what you wrote again! If he really loves this child he'd want to have custody of him a heck of a lot more than for one hour a week! I think you might be deluding yourself here.

I agree.
You say in your first post he leaves the child with his granny on saturday nights, this doesnt sound like a man who is interested in spending time with his child.
With regards to help for you to have some time to be able to work an evening a week, could you not approach the granny yourself and ask her to help out here considering her son wont? Alternatively can you ask the father to share costs for childcare one evening a week so that you can work?
No he wont share costs he gets plesure out of the fact i dont work making smart comments about how il never have anything. and i dont want to ask the granny myself i think its unfair on her to involve her. so basically i have to let this man control my life
Really excellent post.Having a child with someone is an enormous risk. As so many people find to their horror or indeed, when it works, to their great joy that it has worked out.
I really do not understand how you could expect a Court to order a father to (a) love their child more and (b) take the child more. How would a Court enforce this? It may be something of a "nanny" state but it does not go that far.
Its a hard, cruel , nasty, horrible lesson. If people do not want to do something that involves an emotional attachment and a time commitment, then nothing and nobody ( bar themselves) will make them do it. And hard as it is, your function as a parent is to keep the peace , do your best by your child and let the child, in adulthood, work out their own relationship with their parents.
