My abusive ex-partner and a father of two children (10 and 12) wants me to cancel child maintenance. He doesn't pay me anything, children live with me. He said if I don't call the Child Maintenance Services he would not allow us to travel abroad which is quite a big thing for me as I don't have anyone here and normally travel back home twice a year, with the children. I know i will not get a pound from him anyway but it doesn't feel right to cancel my right to the maintenance. Especially as he cannot be trusted, he will still use the same threat in future even if I do now what he wants me to.
Thank you.
