it is. Strawberry letter. Subject, my wife made sure my son hates me. Dear Stephen Shirley,

I'm going to jump right on in. I cheated on my wife two years ago with a woman that constantly threatened to call my wife when she didn't get what she wanted.

This went on two years until I ran out of money and decided to end the affair.

This woman called my wife a few days later.

I was out cutting the yard when my wife, when she called my house and my wife answered.

I walked in and my wife was on the speakerphone, listening to my side chick with my son sitting there listening to everything.

He was 12 years old at the time, and I made him leave the room, but he had already heard enough.

My relationship with him was ruined after that day.

My home life was terrible, too, so I moved out after my wife served me with divorce papers.

We are in the process of discussing who will get custody of our son and I haven't seen him in months. His mother has brainwashed

him to think I'm a no good cheater and liar. She has him in the middle of grown folks'

business and when we talk, she's always on speaker

phone so my son can hear all of the conversation. She sends me text messages with our son

on the text thread and she's usually calling me names and cursing me out. She's brought up all

kinds of things that have happened in our marriage and my son doesn't need to know all of that.

I'm dying to see him, so I sent him a text asking him to have dinner with me one day soon.
