Struggling With Co-Parenting and Fear of Losing My Child

The past few days have been emotionally and mentally exhausting for me. I am struggling with my child’s mother after I asked for a short break from child support to recover and look for other sources of income. She reacted angrily, insulted my family and shared photos of my mother and me online. I feel hurt that a disagreement between us has become an attack on my family. I have always wanted to be more involved in my child’s life and possibly have custody. However, the conflict makes me feel powerless and afraid of losing the bond I have built with my child. I regret how things have turned out, even though my child has brought me so much joy.
