Hi all,
I have attached my proposal for a final order on arrangements regarding my 16 month old son below. Is this suitable and reasonable for him?
1. Week 1
(i) Wednesday from 3pm overnight to Thursday 8.30am return to Mother or childcare/nursery/school.
(ii) Friday from 3pm to Sunday 5pm collect from Mother or childcare/nursery/school and return to Mother.
2. Week 2
(i) Wednesday from 3pm overnight to Thursday 8.30am return to Mother or childcare/nursery/school.
(ii) Every other Friday 3pm – 7pm collect from Mother or childcare/nursery/school and return to Mother.
Every other Saturday 10am – 4pm collect from the Mother.
I currently see him every Wednesday 4hrs
Every other Friday 4 hrs, Saturday 5pm - Sunday 5pm
Every other Friday 3pm - Saturday 5pm
So, we are close to finalising the order. Only the mother and I are in disagreement about our views on arrangements. My proposal has a long term view as I think it is best not to have to return to court, if I agreed with the mother's current proposal to keep arrangements as is I feel down the line I would have to go back to court to change arrangements. I simply do not want to return to court.
Since April 23 I have had slowly but progressively built up consistent time with my 16 month old so. From early January (6 nights so far) the mother agreed that he could stay once weekly overnight rotating Fridays and Saturdays. This has been really great for the heart. There has been absolutely no issues, he is more than happy and routine is absolutely spot on every week. I don't see any signs of separation anxiety either which is great.
In the mother's position she states that our son is 'struggling' with over nights, he is 'unstable' when returning from an overnight and he cries regularly at handovers. I have proof that he does not cry at handovers and I believe the other points are untrue. An attempt to build her argument that he should not stay full weekends 'yet'. The mother had not once notified me about any of the above after handovers or the following days. The position was set through legal representative. The mother also worries that he may be overwhelmed by spending 48hours away from her at one time, I do consider this could be possible but we won't know until we try and it is upto us to manage this.
Of course I want more time and to be involved as much as possible the care of my son(I also work over 40 hours per week). More importantly, i want what is best for my son. I'm writing this post because I want honest opinions on my proposal from fellow fathers that may have experienced something similar or even if you haven't. Is the proposal suitable for a 16month old boy? Will it have a positive or negative impact on him? Would a judge consider it if the decision had to be made by them? Hope to get some feedback and hopefully this post can help some of you other fellas on here. Ch

I have a court order but I'm looking to buy a house and move my job to an hour away from the children meaning I won't be able to have the children for the midweek Wednesday night care. I've asked the mother for extra time in holidays but she's unwilling. The court declared that the children 'spend time with me' not that they 'live with me'. With mother as the primary carer, can I move house and drop the Wednesday regardless or does this need to be agreed by mother/court?

My involvement with the UK family court system was many years ago though having read comments on this website recently matters do not seem to have improved. I have a different view to most as to the changes necessary though cant kid you my views have found many supporters to date, (here in the UK or across the western world)

Gegensätze ziehen sich von Natur aus an und so wie Männer es lieben, die Weichheit im Körper und in den Organen der Frau zu genießen, wollen Frauen die Härte und Steifheit des Mannes sowohl außen als auch innen spüren und erleben Ein Kamagra-Kaufenstellt sicher, dass die Weibchen von ihren Männchen das bekommen, was sie wollen und die Härte, die sie verdienen

Hi I am unable to log in the the forum so I am posting this here instead!
I am looking to interview separated fathers about their lockdown experience
Hi, I am a final year Social Sciences student at UCL studying the lockdown experiences of separated fathers as part of my dissertation. This research aims to explore the effects of the COVID-19 lockdown measures on fathers who have been separated and living apart from their children. Separated fathers come in all shapes and sizes. Many are non-resident, living either part-time or full-time in a different home to their children, whereas others have more flexible arrangements which may have been impacted by lockdown and social distancing measures.
This study focuses on fathers who were separated and living apart from their children before the first UK lockdown (March 23rd) so as to compare your experiences from before and during lockdown. Participants should be living in the UK and have at least one child aged 16 or under who does not permanently reside with them.
I am looking to speak to separated fathers specifically as most family research in the Social Science discipline focuses on mothers and I wish to fill this gap in knowledge, especially in relation to separated father wellbeing. Due to this its super important to expand the global understanding of fatherhood in all its forms and hear your experiences and opinions, specifically in the context of the unprecedented COVID-19 pandemic.
The study will involve a one hour interview using phone or zoom depending on your preference. The interview can be arranged for whatever time suits you best over the next few weeks. All your data will be kept confidential and anonymous throughout the study in accordance with UCL Data Protection Policy. If you would be interested in participating or would like more information about the study please email me at: stnvhmh@ucl.ac.uk.
If you fit this description and would be willing to participate or know someone who does please let me know.
I looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi, obviously now lockdown is happening from Thursday,
I see my kids on a Saturday for a few hours with a friend present as I There are a few awkward circumstances Where I don’t want to be around the mother on my own.
Now that I can’t have anyone there I’m unsure
1- if I can still go round to see my kids.
2- I’d rather be able to take them out.
3- she’s stating she doesn’t want me taking them to mine (no reason given) it’s in her house or not at all..... I don’t know what I’m to do as I’m not sure if I’m allowed to go in her house and personally I don’t want to on my own.

The website is clearly broken.
I, as many others, have tried to register on your forum without success.The issue appears to be that no registration email is sent from you.I have tried with two usernames and two emails.
If you have lost interest in maintaining this site then please at least put a notice up advising such.If you haven't then please get these issues dealt with as it's unfair to everyone who wishes to contribute or seek advice.
Thank you

ill try and make this brief and if my situation helps one parent then it was worth the time writing.
i divorced my kids mum 12 yrs ago whilst married for 10 yrs she was a good mother and partner however after 10 yrs i wanted a divorce
we discussed it and whilst my wife didnt choose this path her upset soon turned to bitterness
i left the family home just taking 3 suitcases .the heart ache leaving your kids making that decision still hurts today .
i continued to pay the morgage and bills and told the solicitor to sign the house over to my wife as i couldnt bare the kids loosing the house .
despite his best efforts to talk me out of my request i told the solicitor it was what i wanted .
at his suprise she refused stating she wanted martial maintance along with csa payments my pension and the house .
since meeting and the 10 marriage she didnt work and i fully accept her job was a full time mother which she loved and the money wasnt a issue but a 6 figure equity amount large csa payments a low morgage fully renovated house and a second hand car and a dad that wanted equal access and met all her controlling demands would have been enough
how wrong could i have been
several months later i need a break from work ....i informed my soon to be ex wife i was going on holiday in a few months, i didnt expect a problem as she had been away and occasionally answered the door with a smile
but on the daybefore flying i reminded her to which the smile turned into rage and a door in my face
despite speaking to my kids and my ex wife whilst abroad arranging to collect the kids on my first day back i was stunned upon turning up at nursery my daughter had been. removed early
it goes down alot from here whilst abroad she obtained a injunction with a power of arrest with no police incidents and just a one sided statement
i was fuming and contacted my solicitor
£1500 later a barrister and a half day at court the judge who issued the injunction stated he was lead to believe it was a one sided case
i have lots of respect for the courts as will become clear later
but for the love of god surely evidence would be necessary considering the impact causin my childrens lack of contact with their dad due to the order and my ex wifes manipulation of that order
to control and manipulate the system irrespective of the pain it caused our children spanning from my son running away several times and my daughter in floods of tears...
the judge stated if my wife declined to drop the injunction it would need a full days hearing and anotjer 2500 pound i didnt have to return .
i left the order in place to run its 12 months course
unfortunetly due to the order i had to issue my own proceedings for refular access to my kids with was being obstructed and often changed
how ever on the day of our court hearing my lovely ex wife who resembled noone i knew for 10 yrs went to the police station stating i had breached the injunction by.........phone contact which wasnt

how ever on the day of our court hearing my lovely ex wife who resembled noone i knew for 10 yrs went to the police station stating i had breached the injunction by.........phone contact which wasnt the breach to my 4 yr old daughter but infact when she asked me "daddy when can i see you next " my reply i dont know sweet heart its upto your mum
after we ended the call in tears theallegation was my 4 year old daughter
missing her dad and suffering from a very difficult divorce asked her mum when can i see daddy
but this was 3 months prior to the court hearing for specified child access .
to my amazement the police attended and informed me i was under arrest for a breach of the injunction
another wasted court hearing and money as again the system was manipulated again
i didnt get charged and no offences were found to have been committed .
however what it started was my ex wifes belief she could maniuplate the system , she was supported by the legal aid system and that my postion was that of a rock and a hard place.
ill skip forward 12 years....
she has constantly tried to restrict access refuse access on father day every year .2 hours on xmas day and a day before for their birthday
needless to say the kids have gobe through so much its been horrendous watching us loose more and more contact whilst she attempted and to a certain extent acheived parental alienation
there was no reason why their mum who did very financially well from the divorce and after that time would had resolved the bitterness and the only goal should have been to do everything we could ensuring our kids happiness.
last year i discovered every time i bought my daughter and son clothes etc she would make it clear to them she wasn't happy
resulting in a sudden stop of contact
i had to find 2500 pound to go to court to get access .this took 5 months to which i had 1000s of mesaages all loving and showed the best relationship which i was told i couldnt use in court
my daughter at 14 was now saying she only wanted contact in a letter which had to be delivered at the request of their mum by the post man
disgusted let down and we were failed as it was too hard to do by asking indepth question as to why suddenly from a excellent relationship which would have been a complaint by the mum
do you think i got a reply from the letters .
nothing in 12 months whereupon my daughters birthday card was delivered late by a friend not a postman
this was reported as harrasment by my kids mum regarding the civil order previously granted (to be posted by a post man) as the school couldnt give my daughter the card and money inside
i delivered it to school as their mum had not given themthe xmas presents i had dropped off the xmas before
i was warned for harrassment despit

since meeting and the 10 marriage she didnt work and i fully accept her job was a full time mother which she loved and the money wasnt a issue but a 6 figure equity amount large csa payments a low morgage fully renovated house and a second hand car and a dad that wanted equal access and met all her controlling demands would have been enough
how wrong could i have been
several months later i need a break from work ....i informed my soon to be ex wife i was going on holiday in a few months, i didnt expect a problem as she had been away and occasionally answered the door with a smile

the judge stated if my wife declined to drop the injunction it would need a full days hearing and anotjer 2500 pound i didnt have to return .
i left the order in place to run its 12 months course
unfortunetly due to the order i had to issue my own proceedings for refular access to my kids with was being obstructed and often changed
how ever on the day of our court hearing my lovely ex wife who resembled noone i knew for 10 yrs went to the police station stating i had breached the injunction by.........phone contact which wasnt
