Because it's against the law to "exorcise" the mother.

He shouldn't even if it was legal, regardless of what she did, thats still the kids mom

Then we absolutely disagree on principle.

@omr I am really sorry to hear that man. Have you tried to consult a professional to find a suitable strategy to deal with your son?

Also I think that buying things for him right now means giving up to his emotional blackmail.

He knows that somehow you are in a position of weakness and he is exploiting the situation.

@Xychotic he is 12.

I was married for 14 years to this woman. I come from a culture where divorce is tabu. Our marriage actually never worked. We have kids because it is part of tradition and perhaps biology. But I always tried to be a good father and tried to provide for my kids.

And now I am here after so many years trying to convince myself to stand for my decisions and help my kids I am really sincere as a father about them.

You have two very clear options.

But after all I do it seems I am only a atm 🏧 for these kids. Just there to provide.

Malicious compliance because he's a lost cause.

Or fight tooth and nail to keep him because you are literally at war with his mother and his mother will raise a boy like a girl and your boy will fail at life and maybe even get killed when he throws a temper tantrum and learns the hard way that girls get what they want and boys get two to the chest.

@omr For how long have you been having a conflicting relationship with your son? Has it always been that way?

at 12 i really don't know if there is much you can do

if hes already turned against you and its somethin his mother is reinforcing

Malicious compliance is simply: "Look, I'm not your ATM. If all you want from me is money, go after your mother's latest boyfriend. Maybe it'll get him laid."

Maybe I'm a little harsh in my youthful vigor.

i see a less hostile version of malicious compliance as the only option

more of a im not going to be your atm but if you want to hangout ill play magic

Have you considered organ donation?

@AntonioD Comics&illustrations it has always been like this. I was fighting my own war with his mother for so many years because she was abusing me mentally with her shaming tactics. So I was deeply depressed because of her behavior. And then on top of that her manipulating my son and her family members to think bad of my. So I wad always the villain.

I'm pretty sure someone would appreciate fresh, 12 yr old organs.

Then be the villain.

i don't want a weak 12 year old bladder

"You want some money for that new game? Where's your report card? How many As did you get?"

well i think you've already got your answer then

you were the villain before the separation and now it's only getting worse

^

luckily if you just treat him decently you always have a chance when hes older, thinking like 22 range

What's going on? Young'un needs mentoring?

i take by my earlier comment, in this situation scorched earth might be best, at least with the mother

No, his kid's a distilled cunt because of his mother's ultra refined cuntery.

And he comes from a society.

So, you know, the rest of the narrative.

@omr Unfortunately I suspect that he suffers Parental Alienation Syndrome. He empathizes with his mother and sees you as the enemy.

PAS = POS with a typo

i've also known you 5minutes and im diagnosing you with not enough frame

Sometimes it's confusion. Each parent telling a different story from the other. You don't know who to trust.

The beatings must continue until morale improves.

lol.
