I shared with my GP some concerns about ex partner’s behaviours with children we share custody of and she said one of us has to make a referral to social services. I kind of knew it would happen but now the wheels are in motion I’m terrified… my ex is highly manipulative and the children are very much ‘behind’ him, so to speak. I’m scared that it’s all going to backfire and will be turned against me in the end. That I will be presented as the one who inflicted damage upon the family when in fact Ive just run out of ways to protect them (from predominantly emotional damage). I don’t want to share more information at this stage so as not to reveal my identity. Can anyone share anything please? What do I need to know?

If he's moved out then he most likely will be denied contact without supervision

we haven’t lived together for quite some time but we share the custody of the children by mutual arrangement. No court orders in place.
