Any advice please. Me and kids dad (we are married still) split 2 months ago. Last night he sent about 15 threatening texts saying that he would take the children from me. As an example of the kind of texts he sent one said "are you going to start respecting me or is this war". He is angry and bitter because I told him to leave. It was an emotionally abusive relationship. I could not take anymore. Obviously he feels like he has lost all control over the situation apart from the kids who it appears he will now use as a weapon to get at me. I work 25 hours a week and have 3 kids. I am managing ok. It is hard but I am coping. He does not like to see that.
I need to know where I stand legally. What are my steps now if that he has threatened this. Should I ask the older two (age 8 and 11) who they want to live with because I am guessing the courts will anyway. How about mediation? How do I go about this?
All advice would be so much appreciated. Thank you. x
