My wife and I are divorcing. We are still in the same house with our two beautiful children (girl 10, boy 8). We normally split child sick days between us (as we should). My wife is self employed. Over the past couple of months she keeps saying that she will leave our 10 year old daughter unattended when she is off sick to either go to work, or other appointments for hours at a time. I have said that this cannot, and will not, happen. She says that she needs to work, she says it is perfectly legal and that our daughter has a phone if she needs to call. I have then taken the day off when she has said she would do this- I do not believe that this is anything more than abandoning a vulnerable child. She says I am ‘mad’ and shouts at me when I object. I have always remained calm- but have said that I now need to phone her school to inform them of this. I have kept her texts saying she is going to do this, with my responses. I have also texted myself a record of the day of other aggressive and, frankly, crazy behaviour. I am terrified that when we split, she is going to try to go for sole custody.
