suspicion of a relapse & a conversation

Suspicion to DS' dad - 2 phone calls unreturned - a full message box and then a mumbling phone call. Lastnight he sounded normal. His excuse "car broke down / fight with girlfriend!"

Conversation w/ DD's Dad - over 30 minutes the other night, went on about what a great mom I am, how he doesn't want to fight, thought the judge was mad at me, hemmed and hawed about mediation! I told him I went to the orientation but if he were to go, that's his choice. I know that I'll get what I want and I did tell him that it's not forever - this is to ask for what is rightfully due to us based on his history and he has to earn more time with her back - just as I had too. He thought that meant I'd make him do parenting and other things I had to do during my juvenile case...that's not the case. What I want from him is near daily phone calls to her, regular visitation, child support paid, and interest in her daily life.
