Ex has taken kids passports

Hi,

I currently live with my ex with our 2 children. We are separated and looking to move on with buyouts or selling the family home. I've just noticed the kids passports are missing and mine has been left. Should I be worried? Can I request these are kept in the house or in a location with a neutral friend. They didn't mention they were taking them.

I'm having the same issues , has he given them back yet , my ex is point black refusing and has family in New Zealand so I am really worried

@Lucyliverpool you would be better starting your own thread, as people are likely to reply to the op of this thread.

Good luck

There is lots to sort out with the breakup and he accused me of harassment and intimidation as I asked him about documenting payments made for the kids. He said he would go to the police unless I only speak to him via text.

He has taken them as per advice he received from an advice line. He said they also advised him to report me to the police if I continue this way.

He seems to use the police threat an awful lot. Unless there is stuff that you're not reporting, he would get laughed out of the police station for complaining that his wife is (gasp) talking to him.

Why is it that a woman is advised to take the passports when they spilt but men are accused of nefarious reasons if they do the same? We don't know the OP. Her ex may have concerns about her taking off with the kids.

Sorry OP. I am not making you out to be a shady character. Just asking a question!

The reason is because controlling men use this as a way to continue their control even when the Barry age ends. Also there have been high profile cases where the male has removed the children from the country and given them to relatives to raise them within his faith.

Yes women have also gone on the run with children but it’s normally to keep them safe.
