Part 1: https://ift.tt/2NL368T called the police. They told me it would be at least several hours before a deputy could make it over, and that in light of the lack of physical evidence (I didn't notice any marking or physical evidence of harm) I would have to send my son back to his mom. Fuck.The police finally showed up around 2:30 am (!!!), more than 6 hours after I called. The deputy was professional but clearly skeptical. I got the impression he didn't believe that a kid would just blurt something like this out. He also wanted to know why I didn't ask my ex about it when she came to pick up our son, to which my response was, uh, Bobby comes too, and he's already tried to fight me before over a petty disagreement at a little league game, how would he react if I casually accused him of child abuse to his face?Anyways. The deputy did take a report and give me a report number and all that, and he said he was going to do a welfare check and investigate over there and he'd call me and keep me posted. I'm worried sick for my son's well-being and about what kind of heartache this may unleash for him, but if this is really happening then it absolutely has to be addressed because Bobby needs to be in prison. My biggest fear right now (outside of the whole HOLY FUCK IS THIS DUDE CHOKING MY KID bit) is that my ex is going to deny, deny, deny (whatever the reality of the matter is) and then try to accuse me of making this up to try to get more custody or something like that and drag us into family court.I dunno. It's 3:30 am and I'm just anxious as fuck and I don't know what else to do. We'll see what the deputy comes up with... via /r/Parenting https://ift.tt/2MIx8NU
