to expect DS's dad to...

tell me he is moving back to the UK?

I broke up with my son's dad in December. He moved abroad at the start of 2014 (all my fault of course. He convinently forgets about the domestic abuse.)

Anyway, I have found out he is moving back to the UK at the end of this month (he wrote it online)....and he hasn't told me.

Originally he was going to return to the UK just before Christmas 2014. AIBU to expect him to tell me is is moving back, given that we have a child together?! I'm extra wary of him because of his previous behaviour, but even if he was 'normal' I still think I'd be annoyed at him not telling me.

TIA.

It would be nice to be told I suppose,

But crap exes act this way. Expect nothing in the future. No point being concerned with someone so useless.

Is he in contact with your son?

If not: why is it your business where he lives? You probably don't want him near you but as long as he is not near enough to run into you accidentally does it matter to you what country he is in?

DS is one at the end of the month.
Ex only has supervised contact for lots of reasons I don't want to write here because they'd be identifiable. (DV, MH issues, general threat to DS's well being etc.)

I just feel that since we have an agreement that contact is supervised, he would tell me he is moving back, as we will obviously need to arrange something which suits us both.

And yes he will be living closely. I assume in the same town with a family member/friend.

Sorry InTheNorth123 in that case you need to know he has moved back but not his exact address. And he does not need yours. And neither should ask DS for it.

He probably wouldn't be able to understand his answer as he is only 1 Grin

"I just feel that since we have an agreement that contact is supervised, he would tell me he is moving back, as we will obviously need to arrange something which suits us both. "

You only need to be told if he is asking for contact, which obviously you would be as he would be asking you for contact. Until he does then you have no need to know where he is.

He is not entitled to OP's address but he is entitled to his child's address which is obviously the same as OP's. unless there are restrictions in place then he will be entitled to find out.
