Ladybird69 - what an arsehole and nasty b*stard your ex is. It's unbelievable they don't even give a shit about their own kids.
I have heard many horror stories, my friend's BP ex threatened to disfigure their kids faces with acid!
I am not at all surprised to hear he was sneaky and devious they seem to be able to fake it and mask their behaviour when it matters most. Shame you didn't have a recording re his dodgy tax dealings.
Well I don't think my exhtb is having much of a fun time with the OW she regularly gets hospitalised for alcohol abuse. In the UK we can't say he is mentally unstable as he is supposedly currently working and able to so he is deemed fit and well by the Court and even if they did instruct his mental capacity be assessed he would probably fool the MH professionals like he has done before, so I'm stuffed from that angle.
I've done much of my own legal stuff with the small knowledge I have, my first solicitor quit citing him as a lunatic! Luckily I've documented everything and recently used a statement proving he is lying but since showing the statement there has been no response to my low offer of settlement in six weeks, I just want my life back.
Yep mine has made me homeless too, I'm renting a room in a relative's house so can't afford alternative accommodation until he decides to settle. I've had the lies too, he has no money etc, yet money is fast disappearing. I am fortunate my kids are grown up, my heart goes out to anyone going through this crap with young kids I consider myself very lucky compared to others. As old as my kids are they have also been mentally affected by this, let's hope it reaches a conclusion soon.
Thanks for sharing Ladybird69 you have given me the kick up the arse I needed to carry on the fight, take care.
