Baby Momma Drama

Yo Jonez,
What's good, how are you? I need some advice. My sons' mother and I have a decent friendship. We dated for about three years before my son was born but ultimately the relationship didn't work out. I'm an excellent father, I take my son as often as possible and we usually enjoy plenty of activities together. I do have a girlfriend who I've been seeing for about six months but I'm not ready to introduce my son to her. I wish the same thing could be said about my sons' mother. Whether it's a new boyfriend or just a casual date, every man has met my son. It bothers me that my son can't really keep up on who is who. I've told her that she needs to slow down especially with bringing all these different dudes around my son. She constantly ignores my pleas, what should I do next?

Dear DDN,
I'm doing well thanks for asking. I think your concerns are good ones to have. It's understandable that you don't want all these random men around your son. It's a thin line because your sons mother may feel you are out of line to tell her what she can do however when it comes to your son there should be some kind of respect. You could schedule a time for just you two, to discuss the situation from your point of view. Explain to her how she would feel if the roles were reversed and you had a bunch of random woman around your son. If you feel like the decisions she is making is emotionally hurting your son then you can always go to court, file for sole custody and let the judge mediate the problem but that should be your last resort. I'm a child of the judicial system and it can have lasting negative affects. You see how crazy I am!! (Smile)
