I know a woman who had a relationship with a mentally ill man,they had a baby who has Cerebral Palsy. The child is now 18 and they are fighting over guardianship. The young man has lived with mom all his life and dad has continually taken mom to court-not for custody of the young man but to reduce visitation and gain control over the equipment of the young man and the young mans van. Most recently dad went to court and gained visitation in the guardianship case even though he has a mental illness and has been violent in the past-victimizing his son who has cp. The tarasoff order went unenforced and the orders that as part of the visitation the dad seek mental health help were also ignored.
Dad now has UNSUPERVISED visitation and is using the young mans trust to control mom. Dad walked away a few years ago but has never really walked away because he continues to go to court seeking things like control of the young mans equipment, he has successfully received a court order barring mom from taking the young man out of state for therapy. Dad has successfully denied therapy and other treatments for the young man and blamed this on mom.
He does all of this to control the mom and dad who is not custodial is in the process of putting the young man in a facility-this is going to be successful as well because of the help dad is getting from the young mans trust. What makes one person want to control the other from a former relationship when they have a new relationship? Why does this man want to abuse his son to this degree?

I would think this has something to do with it:
