hi all I'm new here and could do with some advice. I have just moved home and I don't want to give my ex my new address but my ex is saying I can't see my kids until I give her it. Do I have to give her it as I don't have overnight contact at the moment but would like it
Hi, it's a tricky one. Can I ask first what are your reasons for not wanting to give your address? You don't need to be too specific, just a generalisation will do.
Ye the reasons why I don't want her to have it is because I've had abusive phone calls off her, she's turned up at my old address to have a go at my new partner and she keeps on trying to tell me what I can do & can't do with our kids while there in my care. Plus I wouldn't be surprised if she's trying to brake me and my partner up
That sounds like a very good reason to me. I think the first step is to consider mediation, but it would be worth having a word with the mediation service first to ask about the issue of not disclosing your address. Otherwise it could be a matter of going to court to get a contact order, and also including a prohibited steps.
