A friend's ex won't let him see his baby.

Answered 5 years ago

My friend was in a relationship and they concieved a child. 2 months later she kicked him out. She refused to let him see the child for another 2 months and is now very limited time under supervision.

He yelled at her once during the whole relationship out of sheer frustration and she is saying it was domestic violence. His solicitor is saying that if it goes to court it will be used against him. Surely yelling once does not count.

Advice please

There are people that do serious injury to their partners and still have access to their kids. He must have really fucked up

More to the story than what you know. He needs to apply to court ASAP.

I was just going to say, you usually only have one side of the story.

I think he needs a new solicitor before he goes to court.

Or he needs to tell you the full story so it’ll make sense

I think your *friend* is full of shit either about the "yelling just once" or what his lawyer said.


On an unrelated note you know a lot of men will abandon their children and then tell their new partner they don't see them because they're not allowed and usually they'll make things up that a pretend lawyer said to solidify that it's not worth even trying.

My friend (not my partner) has absolutely not abandoned his child. He has an older child and has always been able to see him anytime and he has him overnight every week.
I think he needs a new solicitor.

And he is trying to save the money to go to court.

Suggestions for your friend.
1) use condoms
2) get a better family lawyer, spend the money!

My ex told everyone I was a psycho stalker who kicked him out over my mental inability.

Not the case at all. He used to beat the shit outta me

We had a similar problem with accused dv grom my hubbies ex from a shouting match they had got into because she had an affair. It got thrown out. We've been together 10 years & no problems. There are women out there who will play this card so they can play the victim- don't think there's not.

I would say he needs to start the court ball rolling, it is excellent he has time even though it is limited, this will work in his favour for the future if he pursues part custody. As for DV I wouldn't stress too much, even if she manages to prove its true they actually don't take it into account with child access, its treated separately. For now unfortunately he will need to play it by her rules and keep his frustration to himself, it will get better when bubs is older.
