One DC has turned 18 since the previous lockdown. Another dc is 15 and suffering with a lot of mental health issues for which she has support at school, secondary care etc.
DC who is 18 needs to stay in one place now but DC who is 15 will be spending week on/week off with me and their dad.
They want to stay together but their dad won’t allow them to stay at mine full time. We have been to solicitors about this in the past - he’s basically a nightmare. I don’t think that issue is resolvable.
DH has a job where if he is found flouting the rules he could be fired. We rely on his job.
What do I do?
- Have children week on/week off and risk DH job but save DC mental health.
- Stick the rules and keep DH job safe but risk DC mental health.
