Left home with 2 kids 20 mins ago

[Lizkmg]

A split with my partner has been coming. We own the home jointly. I work part time at the moment, he’s full time. Kids are 1 and 3.

At parent right now and can stay here for the time being but it will be a squeeze so can’t be permanent.

If anyone has any experience or advice it would be greatly appreciated. I’m trying to formulate a to do list.

Childcare, the house, solicitors?? Money, housing etc

Thank you

Why did you leave, I always though best to stay put especially with kids, unless he's abusive of course. Can you not get him to move out?

I'd say go home & ask him to leave, or return dc to him.

The advice here is always know your finances & his & get organised.

It’s bordering on abbusive. It’s loveless and horrible at best, the split has been coming, I can’t bear to be in the house any longer.

He won’t leave.

You need to contact women's aid, they will talk you through your options.
Good luck

Does he know you’ve gone and where and why?

A good plan would be to look at the entitledto website and start planning what you’re entitled to as a LP.

Over the weekend just get RL support, let people look after you. On Monday if it’s safe enough to return, get copies of legal documents, details of income etc and bank accounts.

for now

08002000247 is the national domestic violence helpline, they'll be able to offer advice
