Does anyone have any advice or experience please.
I had to leave my EH over a year ago with our two young children after 2 years of dependency to cocaine. He financially sank us, left me alone with the children for days at a time , not knowing where he was or when he would return , he stopped attending work and there were incidents of DV and the usual deceit that goes the evil drug.
we left , split and sorted all what was in the marital pot.
late last year and more DV incidents involving me on the handovers his use spilling over into the children’s visits and other solid evidence he was using and affecting the children on visits ( his own mother saying he can’t cope with children ) I stopped visits for safeguarding reasons . Since that he has refused to sign the clean break and Filed for form E trying to get £100k from me in total . Then he files C100 which is fine as I can’t do the handovers for the children so I’m welcoming the courts / Cafcass to arrange this but obvs he needs to be clean to have them aswell - but I’ve found out he’s gone for 50/50 custody . I’m shook because he couldn’t manage two days when he did have them due to his withdrawal symptoms and lying that he wasn’t using when they were with him . He’s been telling everyone he’s clean since the end of last year . I’m so scared they are going to let our children go to a farce of a scene because I’m certain he’s not clean - the signs still remain , Will Cafcass do it’s work and see this - he can’t keep to regular phone contact with them never mind a full time parent .
any words of advice appreciated I’m so scared for my babies x
