My ex hasn’t seen his children since March when I let him to come for contact. He spent 15 minutes with them. My six year old hid from him crying when his dad walked in and his dad told him to stop being an idiot. For a couple of weeks before we split he was claiming mental health and refusing to come home. Tried to get him to get help and refused. Text me insinuating he was going to commit suicide and to tell the kids he was dead and not coming back. Then kept on texting asking if I’d told them. Obviously I didn’t.
Then it came to light he started a new relationship on the 10 days after we split. Which was a relief to say I was rid of him in that aspect.
he is awful with the kids. Emotionally, verbally and physically abusive. Eldest is seeing a therapist to help him and the therapist reported disclosures to social services who was happy with what I was doing and because no contact was currently happening they wasn’t getting involved but made it clear if there was contact they would get involved.
anyway he text two days again asking to see them next weekend to which I’ve said no and told him what the therapist has said and social services and offered supervised . He’s threatened to get legal advice.
but I don’t know if it possible to him to do so because. He is of no fixed address as such. He tells everyone he is living in a work vehicle. His post goes to a family members address in the same town as me despite him living and working 5 and half hours from where we are with his girlfriend. I know she lives in a council house with her kids so I’m guessing doesn’t want to declare that due to benefits etc.
so my question is could he get legal advice? Or if so would court grant any unsupervised contact and make my children travel 5 and a half hours each way given the way he is with them?
im sorry for the long post I’m really scared
