Dh emotionally abuses me.
He shouted at me & shoved me in front of our four year old ds for the last time on Sunday morning.
I don't want my 7 year old dd growing up seeing her parents not getting along
I don't want them to think Daddy's getting cross with Mammy is normal or ok

I can't do the rest of my life living like this.

Great news mammy. Well done for today.

FishesThatFly · 15/09/2018 05:09

I'm rather stunned that he wasn't arrested for hurting you last time. Why wasn't he?

mammynowanauntyIRL · 15/09/2018 06:22

They've no power of arrest for section 2 assault, maybe section 3

FishesThatFly · 15/09/2018 07:41

So where you live people can push, shove and hurt each other with no repercussions?

mammynowanauntyIRL · 15/09/2018 08:11

Well the repercussion is that I now have an order in place to protect me but yes, essentially what you're saying is true.

CurvyInAllTheWrongPlaces · 15/09/2018 10:18

That's great news mammy.

Daphne18 · 15/09/2018 10:30

Don't hide it mammy - I'm sure your friends and family know now - let the news filter out

mammynowanauntyIRL · 15/09/2018 10:45

I want my separation to go through as easily as it can for my children.

And to walk out of this with my head held high, it's in no one else's interests to know. My close friends and close members of my family know.

He wasn't around yesterday evening and I had to work this morning, I checked that his van was there and he was present in the house with children and I walked out the door to work. Prior to this I would've been under a compliment to him to take care of his own children because he makes his own plans for when he's not at work without consulting me at all, without a thought to dc.

Feel empowered after doing this

Apileofballyhoo · 15/09/2018 11:31

I'm delighted you have the interim order.

mammynowanauntyIRL · 15/09/2018 11:41

Thanks apileofballyhoo

northender · 15/09/2018 13:09

Great news that you got the interim order. One step at a time...

TomaszIsMineBitch · 15/09/2018 13:54

Its taken all morning but iv finally rtft.

Im so sorry you are going through this mammy there is light at the end of that tunnel no matter how long that tunnel seems.
You will get through this and your dc will thank you for leaving.
Well done on getting the order.
(Big cyber hugs)

mammynowanauntyIRL · 15/09/2018 15:07

@TomaszIsMineBitch thanks for rtft that's no mean feat. I will do the same some day but not at the moment.

MrsMozart · 16/09/2018 08:29

You're doing so well lass.

mammynowanauntyIRL · 16/09/2018 08:47

Thanks mrs

Apileofballyhoo · 17/09/2018 09:42

Hope the weekend went ok Mammy.

mammynowanauntyIRL · 17/09/2018 11:27

It did thanks
I was working Sat & he entertained the dc and then switched over on Sunday to me taking them. I wish this could be just arranged in advance so that I could make plans if I wanted to. But sure that time will come too

Apileofballyhoo · 17/09/2018 16:36

It will. You're heading in the right direction!

mammynowanauntyIRL · 18/09/2018 05:18

No summons yesterday.
Guard rang to check how things are, and to tell me he's giving his statement on wed night & guard will ring me thurs night then to say how things are going.

Yesterday he gave the impression he was bringing dd to an activity but didn't so therefore when I realised this she was 12 mins late. Asshole.

Apileofballyhoo · 18/09/2018 10:52

That's more of his game playing. It's great the guards are being supportive. I had cause to phone them years ago and they couldn't have been nicer.

mammynowanauntyIRL · 18/09/2018 13:48

Yep definitely but it'll all come down around his ears eventually

mammynowanauntyIRL · 18/09/2018 22:16

Summons arrived in today's post which I retrieved when I came home tonight, he'll get it when he gets up for work. I've bedroom door locked as a precaution

BeUpStanding · 18/09/2018 22:43

You're doing brilliantly mammy. Have you told your au pair or anyone else that he'll see the summons in the morning? Will be thinking of you and hoping he reacts as well as can be expected. What time does he get up for work?

lifelongfrugaleer · 19/09/2018 08:02
