Refusing to see dad

My 12 year old son is refusing to talk to or spend time with his dad. I’ve tried to encourage him and make him go which has only made the situation worse. His dad is angry with me and him and being relentless, I don’t know why he can’t see this is not working. I am feeling stuck in a difficult position. I don’t want to make my son go with him, it feels wrong and like we are traumatizing him. Any suggestions? Have any of you been through a similar situation? What did you do?
