he raises his voice

Hi

incident at dinner

husband was feeding baby

husband told 5Y daughter that baby finished before her and she got slightly upset and started whining a nit

i told him not compare siblings and he stormed off and said I’m critical of him and raised his voice

I told him I only made suggestion

he wants to divorce on the gov website but I told him I want to do it via solicitor to get the right orders

he said he doesn’t want an order and wants to see the kids every 2 weeks but will help me if I need him with childcare

there’s a marac meeting next week as he raised his voice a lot and I’ve been mentally preparing to go to a refuge or rent and never tell him my address and now suddenly all we have to do is go the gov website ??

he sympathises with Hamas and said he’d disown kids if they married non Muslims so I don’t really want him in their lives at all

i even considered occupation orders /non molestation orders

If you feel unsafe, get out. There are charities that can support.
I would advice a solicitor as they will check everything which takes the pressure off you and they will make sure you get what you're entitled to.

Oh and you can't get a non molestation order for shouting. It would need to be documented and evidenced through the police repeatedly along with other behaviours that reach a threshold.

I've read another post by you.....the refuge one

Why are you still there?

@BookArt he wants to apply for divorce on gov website and doesn’t want a child order…, said he will only see kids once every 2 weeks

is this a good idea or better to do it via a solicitor

what would stop him taking the kids hours away from me and him renting somewhere if there’s no child order ..

solicitor I asked wants £750 to discuss my case in detail

Once every two weeks? Wow! Dad of the year there!

At the very least you need a proper financial order, but one that covers residency and access to children would make sense too.

I love the way he considers looking after his own children to be "help with childcare" and not "doing his fair share of parenting his kids".

Or this one

Refuge? http://www.mumsnet.com/Talk/amiibeingunreasonable/5117119-refuge

You don't feel safe.
You don't trust him.
See a solicitor.
Do one post rather than three so the advice you receive actually supports you.

Yes get a CAO in place otherwise he can control the access to kids and whether you can take them away for holidays etc without permission

@Haif7 if there is domestic abuse you should be able to get legal aid I think.
I'd get to a refuge. MARAC doesn't happen lightly.
