Hello had mediation today ect went through all the issues court ect and mediator was good stated she's not allowed info ect my ex basically say short time supervised then unsupervised then night but nothing was agreed and we have to talk between us she stated she wanted it court stamped also
But until she had a response from a social worker shes unsure as last thing she was told.is no unsupervised contact and noone has updated it since I managed to get her number though and she said to contact her on Wednesday for a update
Does this sound good so far
That sounds more or less like what you might get in court. Did you discuss holidays and birthdays ?
No not yet basically she's awaiting cornifmation I'm allowed unsupervised then we have to discuss it between us but now I have her number
It seems like a positive step that she wants it court stamped, you two will need to agree a draft consent order, which will need to be attached to the C100.
Who is she waiting confirmation from regarding unsupervised contact ?
Basically there were some issues with my youngest my new partners child and we had to go through care proceeding we won got found innocent no action ect and got her given back but she had to sign a form to say no unsupervised contact.
The social worker was meant to inform her that it can vbe unsupervised but everyone on our case has left literally everyone so it never happend so it's sorta a hard situation b as ss are impossible
Sounds to me your on pretty amicable terms as these things can escalate very quickly and turn nasty. If you can thrash out a agreement in mediation then that's great but even if you get it runner stamped by the Courts for a consent order then that's a good result in my eyes compared to many on here who have been dragged threw the whole process.
Good luck.
I agree if it can be agreed civil I'd much rather not for me but my daughter also
It's always much better if it can be agreed civilly out of court for everyone concerned - also means there's more likely to be a bit of compromise on both sides, both initially and in future.
There's also the point that parents that have reached agreeement by themselves are more likely to stick to it and be happy to be more flexible as the child gets older and their needs change naturally.
😮 hopefully it.all works out as she has in the past said one thing and done another atm she's not giving a time to.meet saying it's to fast which I assume is because it's half term she's taking her out ect making most of it so once thts over be able to judge on how she's gonna be I'd rather a easy life how long do I have to get the court form stamped because we've done mediation and how long would you wait before you go to court like how much time would you say is to long if she doesn't let me.see her before I should say enough and go court. Thankyou
You might consider self referring to a contact centre. While contact centres are discriminatory, the reality is that if you go to court you will end up in a contact centre anyway, so if you get the ball rolling now you will have saved yourself some time.
Hi I originally suggested a contact centre but she said it's not right for our child and was advised by the school nurse this so I text today I'm seeing my child.for the first time.in a year in half on 9 September so really nervous it's only fora. Hour just at a park with her family.member but fingers crossed ones the initial meeting has happend we can make.it.more consistent I'm.nervous poor daughter must be so confused
