Inspired by recent scary thread of hob's in Chat. For those of us who are LP and the parent with residence or whatever they call it, should we be applying for a residency order 'just in case'?
So in my situation, I have a DD with ExP, both names on birth cert, she is with me FT and ExP has her one day a week. But he could just decide not to return her couldn't he? I know it would eventually be sorted out but is a residency order a good thing to do in advance - so everything is clear - or is it something that only happens after court decisions about contact etc?
