Re: My son doesnt know his father, now the father wants sudden visiation?
Start planning now. Regardless of the quality of his parenting, he has the legal right to do so. He claims that he is going to make an effort to be a father, and it is now your responsibility to further that relationship. Encourage your ex to visit at least once or twice before the wedding, and to call and email/write more often. You need to talk to your son about the visits in a positive way, to keep your son from feeling nervous.
Unless there is something dangerous about your ex, the court will allow him to exercise possession, and will probably order a similar routine to re-establish the relationship.
Good luck.
