So me and kids father married October last year been together about nearly 11 years. Anyways over them course of 11 years he always left for no reason and I took him back. I moved to his country after he ran off and left us in mine. I told him back made me feel lucky to have him back and he left us again 3 months after the wedding for no reason just said he wanted a divorce I didn't want him back after but use suicide against me so I told him back again. We moved house he didn't pay for nothing never has paid for anything he just put pressure on me and wouldn't help. We moved into my new house in August and since then his left about 6 times again for no reason always leaving but in his own head with intent of coming back. Everytime he left I kept telling him I will eventually have enough which brings me to know he got an flat "just incase we broke up" and said he'd stay ther one night a week. He never bought food or clothes or bread or anything for any house we had together. He hasn't even bought anything for the kids for Christmas or birthdays. I'd buy and he would get credit for it. He was buying everything for this flat and was really rubbing it in my father. He was suppose to be staying there a night a week but then was saying he doesn't see why he decorate it if he isn't going to live in it. He told me he wanted to live in there full-time and when I told him how would we work he didn't have an answer. Then he went back to saying he only stay a night a week. He got his keys and told me he wanted to stay in there full time so I ended it with him. I don't want to be with this man I and see it coming with his selfish ways. He hasn't really seen the kids much. He takes them to and from school back to me and he goes on doing whatever his doing at the flat. I asked him to see kids more but he get made and say what do I expect when his trying to fix the flat to have the kids. So he assumed I would just do everything for them untill he was ready. Anyways other night I had a glass of wine and had a bath first one in over a year kids was happy watching TV he said he would take the kids for the first time in almost 3 weeks and to stay over night for him for the first time. My friend came to mine and we had a takeaway and a few more drinks I had no kids after all. I had my Facebook logged into the laptop I had out into the bag for the kids and he had seen my messages I asked a friend to my house he didn't like that he thought I wanted to sleep with them. He took the kids out of there beds at half 10 at night and took them back to me when I was a bit drink bare in mind 2 of my kids have additional needs so they were panicking. My friend took them to bed and read them a story. After they were settled he was blowing up my phone calling me a w*e and a s**l saying I slept with loads of people. The he goes on to Facebook writing status about me saying the same thing one after another. I block him and he started the next day at my friend apparently it was a plan of ours when it was one of the most random things ever cause we barely drink. The next day he was texting my cousin tell her he was outside my house and driving passed my house. Said he didn't want anything to do with the kids because he doesn't trust me when I have time to myself. I kept say we aren't together I am done. I live 20 minutes away from kids school and he use to bring them but now he doesn't so I'm out 30 a day for taxis to school. I have asked for support with the school and support workers. He text my cousin being nasty calling me names I'm this and I'm that. I told her to ask him what about the kids but his purely just focused on just me. His hurting the kids thinking it's going to get to me. He also think that because he leave the kids with me I won't met a friend or whatever. After his nasty he changes and then asks me do I want him to take kids to school. I live in his country I have no family nothing. So if I have to be one place with one kids and other with other one I can't do it. I have so much going on with my own personal problems and he doesn't help at all. Hes now saying he never said he didn't want anything to do with the kids he wants to leave me to it till he feels better and he will have something to do with them. This man also would kick off if I didn't but him something he wanted he would take my last penny for something for himself. He gave me the full responsibility of the kids and the bills and he jusy have the name of being a dad. He can't be a father without me. I don't want nothing to do with him. But I don't no what to do. Can I bring him to court? What can I do. I want him to be a father I get no time to do anything only when there in school and I live a bit away from shopping centers so it hard if I haven't the money for taxi. I have transferred kids schools but that's gonna take at least a few weeks which I'm worried about how much I'm going to spend on taxis to and from school. I could get a bus but I'd have to have them up so early and at school early so I could get then there on time. I'm also not from around here and don't no much or anything about buses. Plus I'm not even sure my 2 boys would settle on 1. Please just give me anything a boost or advice someone I can talk to about the kids like a solicitor. Any advice is great.

Need advice!

I have an 8 year old and a 2 year old, their dad has found a room to rent in shared house and moves in a couple of days. I very worried as they are just strangers, am I in my rights to know who they are as my kids will be staying over?

I think you @Jade080911. I'd suggest you start your own thread though as many won't get to the end of the very long OP, won't even see your question.

OP it might be better to get your post edited or rewrite it entirely and try and split it into paragraphs or somehow shorten it, many don't have time to read such a long post? Then you're more likely to get some advice.
