Hello all, im looking for some advice regarding moving a child out of the country.
I have 2 children, one of them is not DPs biological child. This child has contact with their other father, which was organised through the court. Childs father hasnt always stuck to the court order, but i have always made child available when contact is supposed to happen.
We are planning on moving to another country and i have informed ExDP of our plans via email (This is the preferred method of contact as he is manipulative and abusive, so its all on record) He is on the birth certificate, therefore has parental responsibility, so i know i need his permission for this move to go ahead.
I sent the email a week or so ago, and so far i have not had a response from him. I stated in the email that us moving would not change the contact he has with his child, in fact it may make it easier for him as he would have less distance to travel to pick her up from the airport. If he hasnt replied, in effect he hasnt shown any disagreement... But obviously i dont want to move, then get caught for kidnapping my own child.
What would you suggest? Do i need to start court proceedings? Or do i send another email? I have to be careful not to come across as, for want of a better word, desperate, as he is a very controlling person, if he feels he has the upper hand i fear he will deliberately make this difficult.
Thanks for reading. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.
