Mumsnet Talk

I agree with you Saulaboutme. There is an abundance of help out there, you just need to ask. Keep thinking of your dream and goal, stress free, peaceful, comfortable living for you and your child. Think of the happiness that will bring. Now go and make your voice heard! :-)

If you contact your local police station for the incident numbers of the callouts that could also assist womens aid in helping you further.

I really do wish you and your baby all the best. x

In order to be considered priority your mother would have to write a letter saying she is evicting you and then you would be considered at risk of homelessness..

If she will not do that then still register on the council list and have them work through your circumstances.

If you are not considered homeless you are better off finding out what help you can get in regards to deposit and housing benefit as I lived with my parents for three years and despite arguments got no where.

make an appointment at the housing dept of the local council and they will run you through your options.

Find a flat for private rent, quicker than waiting for council, contact housing benefit office to find out what housing benefit you'd be entitled to x

I am a mum of four and childminder of seven. I am still learning myself.

So sorry to hear what has happened. this joke was NOT funny but hurtful!!

You are a loving caring mum. You are only doing what mums do to their babies. Contine to do this.

It must also be hard for your mum too. Let her know that you love her regardless of what has happened in the past.

You need to apply for housing. You need your own place to bring up your baby. I am sure you do not want your baby to grow up hearing arguments etc.

All the best.

May 2013 bring you joy, peace and all things wonderful.

Remember you are a good mum, tell yourself that.

Salis, that is good advice. I hope it all works out for you honey. Please please get working on getting out. There is alot of help out there.

Hello. I am sorry to hear that you are experiencing such difficulties in your home life.

Loving and caring for your child is the most joyful and rewarding experience for any Mother. Yes you do have the right to kiss your baby, love her and nurture her. Do not let another persons sick thoughts ruin that natural bond for you or your child.

Arguments where police are called are not a normal every day occurence. You and your child have the right to a peaceful, stable, safe home environment free from abusive comments and police calls.

Have you ever thought about getting in touch with Womens aid? Domestic abuse comes in a wide range of forms. Emotional abuse can be one of the most damaging. For a man who knows your past to make such a comment is disgusting. This is abuse. For arguments to be occurring in an environment where you should have peace and stability around your child suggests that this man has no regard for your daughters well being. Again this is abuse. For there to be police callouts due to arguments getting out of hand around your child again cries abuse.

Nobody should have to live in such an environment.

Womens aid have a refuge facility if you can no longer cope with listening to arguments at home. They will provide you with a room for you with a cot for your baby at minimal cost per week. They are trained to help you get listed with the council and other housing associations and will assist you with benefits etc to help you set up your new stress free peaceful life.

Give them a ring and discuss your situation. You do not have to put up with misery and your child certainly should not have to live with it.

Good luck.

Firstly I think you need to apply for housing at your local authority and housing associations. No wonder you want to get out, really sad situation so hope you don't have to be there too much longer. I'd also ask the CAB if there's a chance of getting into a mother and baby home. I'd also speak to your health visitor about your living situation. Good luck.

I don't know, but didn't want to ignore. I would suggest asking at the Citizen's Advice bureaux until someone more helpful comes along.

What rights as I single mother do I have when it comes to finding my own place? I'm 20 years old with a beautiful 15 week old dd and I would do anything and I mean anything for her so this is why I need help!

I currently live with mother and her evil twisted husband!!

Couple weeks back we got into a fight here's the story

As a child I was sexually abused by my twisted father who is now serving a 24 year sentence in jail so to get to the point I was giving my baby girl kisses and my mothers husband turned around and said i would get done for sexual abuse I found this very hurtful as I'd never in a million years EVER hurt my baby so I ran upstairs crying he didn't even apologised and my mother said I was taking it too far he was only joking so then it ended up me and mother ended up arguing! Police was also called and they was completely on my side and said he was bang out of order for saying it and he is deeply hurt by it and he's not the one that was abused and also said if I want to kiss my baby from head to toe there is nothing wrong with that she's my baby and I agreed in the state I was in!!

So tonight yet door her argument has accrued not as bad but to the point I've had enough where can I go? I have no friends who can fit me in with my baby and my grandfather spare bedroom is in the middle of being done up and having damp sorted and his front room gets way to cold for a baby to sleep in!

I want out I want a happy life and being here is not happy!!!
