Abusive ex, new partner

AIBU, and what would you do?

'People you may know' on Facebook threw up a doozy over the weekend: an ex's new girlfriend. I only knew because her profile picture was the pair of them together. Because I'm a nosey bugger, I had a little look at her profile and can also see she has two young children.

This ex was physically, psychologically and financially abusive ten years ago. He's known to the police. I don't give a hoot about him, but I'm concerned that he's now around a potentially unsuspecting lady and her kids. He had an explosive temper and couldn't control his outbursts, physically and otherwise.

Would you feel you have a duty of care to a stranger and find a way to tell her, or leave well alone because it's none of my business and he might have changed?

If someone told me I would 100 % listen for the sake of my children. Be anonymous and tell her. Don't leave it for the sake of those children.
