Hi guys

Never posted before but desperately looking for advice as I have never been in this position before.

The father of my children has grabbed me, punched me in the stomach, threw me to the floor and then kicked me while I was on the floor today. This is the first time this has happened after a heated debate but in all honestly I'm surprised it's never happened before due to his anger.

I have no idea what to do now for the best, he is so narcissic that he proceeded to scream at me that I'm a psychopath and that's why he hit me, he will not take responsibility for his own actions and will not think he has done anything wrong.

He has currently left the property (my property) with my two children. He has no other childcare for work so I am praying they will be back before the end of the day because of this, and I will not have to use threats before they return.

My worry about going to the police is that I'm afraid they will take my children away or something like that. There is no other reason as they are well cared for, have a nice clean tidy house with loads of toys and supportive family, they are certainly well looked after, but I need as much advice as possible so I can get my children and make sure he can no longer stay here :-(

Any advice would be so helpful right now especially from those who have unfortunately experienced this type of thing before :-(

We are so sorry this has happened to you. We think it's important you are able to get as much support as possible and we think you may be able to get more support on our Legal board. Would you be open to us moving it there?
