My 12 yr old went to stay with his father for the weekend 2 weeks ago, and to this day is refusing to come home. He has decided he wants to live with his father. His father says my son can do what he wants, and will not send him home if he does not want to go. I have legal custody, and am aware that at age 12 he has the right to make that choice. However, it is for childish reasons. My son has anger issues at it is, and has cut himself in the past and is seeing a therapist which I take him to. He blames me for it, because I moved him away from his father and friends. (We only moved 15 minutes away.) We had discussed it before moving and he was excited at the time, but once we got the house he completely changed. His father plays the friend role letting him stay up til early morning hours on the phone, and watching tv, while I play the parent with rules, chores, and a bedtime. His father lets him do as he pleases at his house. So my son now sees me as the bad guy. My 17 and 19 yr old children told me this. Is there something I can do in the meantime, while waiting for any court filings on his part. What are my options?
