Feeling so down about the fact that my kids aren't seeing their dad. Briefly, non molestation in place since January, he got back in touch in April, breached the order, was arrested and is now on bail til September and not allowed to make contact with me (thank god) but can still see the children just has to make arrangements through a third party/solicitor. My solicitor wrote to him six weeks saying that I was keen for him to have regular contact and inviting him to contact her with his proposal for contact that didn't involve me. No response. I should mention that I blocked his phone number a couple of months ago, felt I had no choice.
A week ago my eldest son saw him in the distance in the park near our house - apparently it looked like he was crying. Can't think of why he would have been there unless he was hoping to see me or the children, feel uneasy about him 'lurking' and also worried about his emotional state.
Anyway, it's really stirred me up. The thought of him crying on the common has me feeling sorry for him (when I really shouldn't be). I WANT him to see the children but just to leave me alone. Am debating getting my sister to email/text him to reiterate that he IS allowed contact and can contact her as a third party but everyone who knows me and the situation is saying that he does know that, the solicitor has made that clear and that the ball is in his court. My emotions are just clouding my judgement so much.
Should I get my sister or solicitor to send another email or is it really down to him to get in touch?
Thanks ladies xx
