Sending Gifts

[TheLioness789]

My ex has send a gift for my child to my (detail removed by Moderator) house, and in that attached a letter requesting a (detail removed by Moderator) to send to him. I got advise from my solicitor, which I’m happy with, but does it ever stop. The constant harassment?? Feeling angry ans triggered. I’ve come too far to be pulled back in.
My ex has only met my child (number removed by Moderator) and he stated to professionals he wants nothing to do with my child. So why on earth would he think I would oblige to his request?!

i suppose you always want to see the good in people & think someone is changing (into perhaps a father showing a genuine interest in his child).  but sadly because of someones previous behaviour you can find yourself questioning if its only about control & manipulation.  the gift & request has certainly achieved something as it has unsettled annoyed & confused you – which could have been the intention.  and if so try really hard not to let your ex partner cause these feelings now that you & your child are away from him

Is it possible that he sent the gift and wanted a photo of it so that he could prove what a good father he is to someone? Sorry if this sounds very cynical! But I wonder if a new partner, friend , counselor or anyone else needs to be convinced or impressed by what a great guy he is.
