Have been going through the whole contact process for the last eighteen months, court twice.. first time I was made to go in with my ex to see the cafcass officer and state my concerns (no prior warning!) second time the cafcass officer gave a verbal report, dismissing the concerns I had expressed to her and had empathised with so genuinely over the phone. Of course my ex pulled out the I serve my country card and got what ever he wanted. Now I have to go Friday for a meeting with a new cafcass officer who has to write a report for the 27th, what happened to the ten week process? he has arranged for their meeting at my little girl to be at a child activity center, so how will she evidence any parenting? and I have the third court hearing early feb. All this from a man who threatened to burn me in my house because I wouldn't abort, didn't see his daughter for the first three months and declined the offer to register on her birth certificate. I used to take her to his mum's for the weekend, I've taken her t see him in Wales, he's seen her when and for as long as HE wants and the whole court process is so he can have her unsupervised for one week in Wales when he hardly used to see her at all. Upholding the fathers right over that of the child is complete pants and can anything be done???
