Do you mean take them to your home when you are having contact with them, or just pick them up from somewhere and take them to you home without the mothers agreement that there is ay contact at all?

If the former - technically if you have PR what you do in your contact time is your decision (unless there are orders restricting it) and you can go and do what you want.

If the second - technically you could, but I really wouldnt reccommend it.

Unfortunately, given that the mother is the resident parent in this scenario, you can't do anything unless you have a court order. If you attempt to see your kids or take them from the mother, you will only make matters worse than they already are and she may look to take out a non-molestation order (NMO).

If she has already taken out a NMO, you may be arrested and charged with harrassment. Again, this will only make your situation worse and make contact extremeley difficult.

I would advise that you, if you haven't yet done so already, move forward with an application for a contact order asap.
