My Ex Turned My 7-Year-Old Against Me in Custody War 💔

Last spring, my world shattered when my ex took our kids and never brought them back. What started as a normal visit became a year-long legal nightmare that's still tearing my heart apart 😢 My sweet 7-year-old son now calls me by my first name instead of 'Mom.' He won't even let my own mother be 'Grandma' anymore. My little 3-year-old daughter just started saying 'Mama' again after months of silence. The court-appointed guardian suspects parental alienation, but my ex keeps fighting for full custody while I'm desperately asking for shared time. I've been battling my own mental health demons through this whole ordeal, but I'm getting the support I need. Still, I'm terrified the court might side with him completely. Have you ever felt like you're fighting an impossible battle for your children's love? I could really use some hope right now 💕 #CustodyBattle #ParentalAlienation #SingleMom #FamilyRelationships
