Hi everyone,
I'm moving to Croydon next weekend, to be nearer my bf. It's all very scary, leaving everyone I know here in Norfolk.
Apart from the ex, who I can't wait to leave of course!
My relationship with me ex husband ended with me going to a refuge and has been messy since. We've been seperated over 2 years. Contact has settled at every other weekend, but now I'm moving this is unlikely to be possible, especially as neither of us drive.
Have any other mums been in this situation, and could perhaps offer me some advice?
I can't say I'm bothered if he dissapears off the face of the earth, and the kids are quite young so prob not too many questions there.
However, I really don't know how to tell him. He is ok with the kids, but violent towards me, so I avoid him as much as poss. I seriously tempted to simply write to the solicitor. The ex doesn't even have a telephone number.
The other query is, where do we go from here. He is not allowed in my property, so I don't know how we are going to arrange access. Can I been made to take the kids up to him? I'm on income support, so this could be difficult.
Thanks,
Poppy
