How to co parent with an abusive ex
Show your support
I don’t. My ex husband almost killed me 3 times… I am not putting my child through that.
If it were up to me I wouldn’t let him near my child but he is going to have his first meeting with my baby next month and I just want to prepare myself 😭
I keep it no contact with my abuser we have a middle man which is his aunt and that’s how we communicate and everything is great 😊 no problems
Just be confident! Relax body language, look him in the eyes when you talk. Don’t dim yourself down. Be confident and try and be nice and civil! I had to talk to my therapist about this too
If you have proof that he abused you, then legally a court can’t make you coparent…
Tomorrow afternoon I have a non molestation order hearing to protect myself and my son against his father. My son isn’t at threat, but social services have told me I don’t have to allow access until he decides to take me to court. Has he gone through this route? Is caffcas involved?
Also, if it’s supervised, you wouldn’t be anywhere near him.
@Kayleigh he went to court my story is long and still hurts I can’t put out all the details but if I won’t be in the room with him then that’s fine
Now I’m over a year into this so we’re a bit more civil now since time has passed but in the beginning I pretended he didn’t exist. Unless it was about our son we didn’t speak or see each other. You can’t let YOUR feelings get in the way of a relationship with him and his child and I had to learn that the hard way. Our feelings toward each other has nothing to do with our son. Unless he’s being physically, mentally or verbally abused. You said he was physically abusive so I would be bringing that up in court..do you think he would hurt the baby? I’d be looking into a protection order which I also had to do with my second bd and still have even though our baby didn’t make it. Still don’t want him near me and my first son.
