Children witnessing domestic violence

[BeeHoney07]

Hi, just want some advice.
I have 2 DS’s who have told me that they have witnessed their Dads partner hit him. They are constantly arguing/shouting. She has hit my 2 DS’s. Me and ex have shared custody no court order.
I feel like I have no power to take them. Has anyone else had this who can share their experience and guide me to what I can do. I have spoke with social services, schools and solicitors.
i know I can keep them but I don’t want them to go through the traumatic scene of ex banging on the door etc.

@Littlemiracles232504 believe me I’ve wanted to do that! Just sitting in TAF meetings at school with them both boils my blood and just seeing her. I watched a documentary on Netflix which had a man being abused in front of their daughters by their mother and it broke me!

I’m no longer standing for it, I need to protect my babies and now going to take the correct steps thank you people!

What has the ex said re the violence against him? Does he acknowledge that he's a victim and needs to get out of his situation?

@BeeHoney07 yes I recently watched that too!
Well done, your kids with thank you in the future, I came from an abusive upbringing myself and it really does take a toll as you get older xx

@Foreverhope1 we don’t have any communication, if I raise it he will no doubt deny it like everything else I have raised and say that I am brainwashing the children or making it up. I don’t recognise him anymore, neither do certain friends and family. Hopefully this will be an eye opener to him to really look at the children and not pin their behaviour on autism/ADHD/Aspergers and also get himself help and support as at the end of the day the boys absolutely love their Dad and I think this is why it has been so hard for me to do this.
