MY EX-HUSBAND GAVE OUR SON A ROCKING HORSE —WHEN I SAW WHAT WAS INSIDE, I CALLED MY LAWYER

A few weeks ago, my ex-husband brought our son, Ethan, a plush rocking horse. It seemed harmless—just another guilt gift after our messy divorce. Ethan adored it.
But days later, I noticed a strange clicking noise. Thinking it was just a loose spring, I inspected the toy one night and found something disturbing: a blinking tracking device hidden inside.
I was shaken. Who puts a tracker in a child’s toy?
I documented everything, called my lawyer, and we acted fast. In court, my ex claimed it was a “manufacturing defect,” but a private investigator traced the device back to him.
The judge was furious. My ex lost all unsupervised visitation rights and now sees Ethan only twice a month—with a court monitor. The tracker became evidence in an ongoing criminal case.
I threw out the rocking horse. Ethan didn’t mind—I told him it had a boo-boo.
But I still wonder… What kind of father spies on his own child?
He thought he could control us.
He was wrong.
