So we are mid process, FDR got us nowhere apart from the judge seeming to be pointing in the direction of me and the boys staying in the house...final hearing likely to be April and EX is now going to apply for a child arrangements order for 50% custody.
Kids are 9, 8 & 5. He has incurable cancer with a life expectancy of approx 4 years.
Judge suggested custody of such nature may not be granted due to the age of the children, the number of handovers and also his medical condition would be brought up too.
Last night. Christmas Eve. He takes kids out for panto leaving at 11. Told me earlier in week be back late PM. Text in the afternoon home around 6. Then 8 then I demanded home by 9 or I would call police. Which I did and they couldn’t have given less of a shit excuse my language. He finally rolls in at 10.15 after having dragged them round 5 pubs and ignoring their requests to go home. Two younger ones have had sore throats all week and this was also ignored as he was too busy talking...livid doesn’t cover it.
Everyone says I can’t let this happen again and I shouldn’t let him have them tomorrow on Boxing Day but how is that physically possible????
