[Solved] Post Court Order

Hi . I’d guess the wishes of the children would have maybe been ascertained when you were granted the court order in the 1st place . If your ex wants to change contact post an order she has to apply again . If she’s in breach she’s in breach and risks contempt of court and so on . You’ve been more than reasonable for the best for your kids . The only way to stop this behaviour , as the ex clearly won’t be reasonable is to remind her of the order that is in place , say you don’t wish to go to court as she’s willingly breaching it’s terms but you feel like you have no choice . If you don’t get your kids the next time you should I’m afraid you just need to go back to court .

CityDad,

Once again, many thanks for this.

Who knew that things would turn out like this and someone you once shared so much with can turn out to be so...nasty for want of a better word.

Indeed it’s a shame as we’ve all cared for these exes etc and it’s not best for the kids . My contact was agreed verbally and that works when you’re getting along and both playing the game etc . When they then decide to be awkward and deny contact they’ll always use it . I think people put off going to court in the hope things blow over and sometimes they do . But it’s not the best to live worrying that someone can deny contact as they please when they want to have a power trip . Unf the only way to stop it is an order from a court . It’s a shame when it gets like that ....

Have a google of what the implications for your ex may be if she doesn’t follow the order . It might appeal to her better side as it were if she realise

CityDad,

Based on conversations at court and in meetings with the social services disability team, I think she has no fear of any action the court would impose on her.
