Hello, I am new here and hoping to get some advice.
Does anyone have experience of what contact a court would award for a young child over a significant distance (150 miles)?
LO sees ex every other weekend daytime only locally - ex does the travelling. Ex threatening court as wants overnight contact and to take LO back to his for the weekend, progressing to more I would imagine.
Situation complicated by DV and my concern over contact, however ex has been threatening court and I think it is only a matter of time....................
LO also about to start school later in the year too.
Despite best efforts at cordial relationship with ex, it just descends into aggression and ultimatums if he doesn't get what he feels entitled to regardless of LO.
So as well as likely contact pattern and who does the travelling, I guess I also want to ask about limiting contact with ex for myself too. At point where I am sick of trying to cope with his abuse and to limit contact between him and myself to a minimum for my own mental health and wellbeing. Keep hearing this is detrimental to kids, so have tried to keep the lines open so far, but really struggling with it all now.
