Hello there.
This is my first time on the site - what a great resource.
Hope you can help.
My wife and I have been going through difficulties and last night I got home from work at 8pm and the house was locked up and my wife and 4 children were not there.
I called my wife and she told me they were on a 'camping adventure' and that is all I know. My kids wont answer their phones.
I suspect they are at her parents who live close - I went there calmly last night and her father flew at me swearing and threatening to call the Police stating 'he was not obliged to tell me where they were'
My question is this - Can she do this?
Also, my youngest son picks on my daughter (3rd child). He throws things at her and my wife takes his side against my daughter. Yesterday, he threw a plug at her and she now has a big lump on her head.
I am worried about her.
Many thanks
Pete
Hi there
I think as you are worried about your children then you could call the police and ask them if they can find out if your children are safe and well. They may not be able to tell you where they are but the can tell you that they are safe.
Thank you - I did this and found out they are at my in-laws.
Many thanks for your answer,
At least you know where they are now...best of luck getting things sorted out.
