Ali - I don't believe the counsellor exsists either. The lady shows little interest in the kids at the best of times, so I can't imagine her being pulled away from her social activites to take one of the kids to a counsellor (she can't even get the kids to the immunisation clinic - and have both missed out on their 18mth and 4 yr old shots)....I hope I'm not coming across as overly *****y
Briggsys girl - DP will be going the court line for a parenting order - although with her being pregnant 6-7 mths ish (we've heard) I wonder if she can put proceedings on hold so she doesnt 'stress out' (just to put a spanner in the works)??
Mrsmac - the ex won't even tell DP where the eldest DD is going to school, so unfortunately that option is out.
It's so bizarre how last year (when she had no man and was still living in their 'family' house still being financially dependent on DP for paying the mortgage) she was always saying 'look, they're you're kids too and I'll never let you stop seeing them' - now she has a man she certainly has changed her tune...I know they're always difficult situations with ex's, new families, step kids etc - but it seems so unfair that we genuinely have an interest in the kids and want to see them - and every avenue we have tried say 'well it's up to the mother and what she'll allow'....! So yeah, she's forced our hand to go to court...
leesa - her pg shouldn't stop interim orders being put in place - if she has this evidence, she has nothing to worry about, if she doesn't, you should be able to get something in place until after her baby is born and she wants to go back to court. they won't disadvantage the children - it's ALL about the children now...
