Legal Question in Family Law in Indiana
My son is 6yrs old. He tells me when he's at his fathers that he & his father take showers together. I've told his father I don't think this is appropriate for his age but he continues to do it. My son has a fascination with tornadoes. He talks about them constantly & when I tell him not to talk about them because they are bad & cause death & destruction he simply says I know, then continues. I asked my son where he's learned about tornadoes & he tells me at his dads. That his father lets him watch movies like "The Day After Tomorrow" & "Twister" for bed time. I asked his father not to let him watch these kind of movies as they aren't appropriate for his age. That I don't want our 6yr old watching death & destruction. When I address him with any parenting issues I am cussed at, called names, told not to talk to him, not to tell him how to parent, & so on. There are other issues such as bed time, scolding our son for calling my husband Dad to the point my son says he gets in trouble, & other things. Is there anything I can do about any of this?

A multitude of things, all of which call for more advice than can be given in this forum. You need to sit down with a family law attorney in your community and discuss these issues, some of which can be very harmful to your son. It will be well worth the money you have to spend, and a lot cheaper than paying for counseling bills down the road.
Good luck.
