Hi, I seperated with my partner 6 months ago as it was a very bad relationship involving dv, as his aaggression n violence was only ever aimed at me I encouraged him to have a healthy relationship with our 2 children after the separation. He was always inconsistant, didn't do anything with them when he saw them eg sleeping during the contact for nursing hangovers etc. He only showed interest in them when he was trying to win me back, in March I was brutally honest to make it clear he would never get me back, with in days he got a new girlfriend n expected from day 1 he could involve her in the contact with our children, I suggested he should give the relationship more time before involving our children in something that could be over as quick as it started n actually speak to our daughter, my son is 1 so wouldn't understand, about his new relationship before involving her in his time wi kids. He ignored my suggestions n literally dropped the bomb shell onmy ddaughter n introduced them in the same day. She also has children who she hasn't got custody of, I've asked about this n been told its none of my business which I dont agree wi if she's having contact wi my children. When exchanging the kids he'd verbally abuse me in front of them n say things like I never even wanted them kids. No matter how much I tried to talk to him about my concerns of his behavior towards me n his lack of commitment to our children I never got anywhere, I suggested mediation but he refused.
