Would you consider this an admission?

During our first hearing for a CAO my ex said that some of the dv allegations I made had happened but that I exaggerated them. I’ve seen from the children’s act that any admissions should be noted in each order however it is isn’t detailed in the most recent order it just says mother alleges and father denies abuse.

Am I wrong in thinking this was an admission?

I would consider it an admission, however is it possible that’s a legal term or something? X

PP I don’t think so, it’s just if he has admitted to the allegations. But he has admitted to the incidents but denies they were abusive so I don’t know if that’s the difference

It could be that he has denied it what happened if you dont mind me asking?

I think what has happened is that you have said for example “He hit me and stole my house keys and went into my house” and he’s said “well what actually happened is we were arguing and I wanted to leave so I barged past her and May have knocked into her on the way out as it was narrow, I always had my own keys. Later I felt bad so I used my own keys to go into the home to talk.
So he’s admitting it happened but minimising it to mutual/toxic relationship behaviour rather than abuse? X
