He also took me captive the morning of Wed. Feb. 06 and 2008. He was clearly out of his mind. I escaped several hours later. I believe he is sinking into dementia, and with his drinking, its getting even worse. The only witness I have to these events is my sister, who is a near-idiot and cannot be relied upon. At least one person suggested that I have him go to rehab – which he will never do. Do I need to have him confined to a psychiatric ward for evaluation? This seems cruel as he is old and has several illnesses. I don’t want him to spend his last days in a ward (or prison), but I feel that I have to protect him – and myself. Should I report this to my local police?

We have no formal or court ordered custody agreement, only a child support judgement. I have decided that until his father gets professional help for his alcoholism, that I will not allow him to take him from where we live, back to his home. He can only come here and visit with him. If he pursues this in court, do I have a right to request he have only be allowed visitation in my son’s primary home (mine). It doesn’t necessarily have to be supervised, just away from the alcohol.
