Hi.
I wish I'd found this when my kids were born. I've got 8yo (girl) and 5yo (girl) both of whom are awesome and my wife and I are doing well.
This looks like a great place for support though it seems hard to find?
I've also just started working for The Yard in Edinburgh which is an inclusive play centre. I may pop up here with general questions about inclusive play and related issues.
Speak soon
Rob
Hi and welcome on here - I think if you'd found this forum when your oldest was born, you'd have found it was a lot smaller 😀
It may be worth editing names and places that could potentially identify you later should you end up seeking legal assistance for contact (if needed)…i say this only because the Family Courts don’t like cases being discussed in the public domain.
Apart from that welcome to the forum, there a great wealth of experienced based knowledge here to help you.
good point d-i-d - I'd missed that. Edited the post now to remove them.
