[Solved] Non molustation due to end

Nobody can predict what an individual court will decide but in my experience, with babies and toddlers, they tend to prefer little and often. It sounds like you're in for a bit of a bumpy ride whichever direction you take but hopefully the court will get something sorted and it's good you have a barrister to help.

With regard to payments, try not pay cash if you can. Use bank transfer, standing order or paypal or anything that you can keep a record of.

... and make sure you put a reference of "child maintenance" with those payments, so there is no doubt what it's for.

8 months now

i see. one of my kids will be 1 at the end of november. up until now i have only been seeing her for an hour, every other weekend. just staying close by to the ex address (she told court she intends to breastfeed until baby is 1. obvious lie, but it is what it is.)have 2 older kids that stay with me every other weekend. once baby is a year old, the plan is for the baby to spend couple of hours at my place. then hopefully from age 2, can look at overnight stays.

Thanks for the reply luckly my daughter is bottle fed so plus I have recipts for milk ect going ahead in January so fingers crossed I get a decent out come

Your situation sounds identical to mine only have had 8 years of [censored]. It just doesn’t start and I’ve lost all faith in Social, Cafcass, courts . With my case - doesn’t matter on how much visual evidence, verbal recorded evidence, just plain open their darn eyes evidence over the past - courts are blind n turn their hearing aids off when I speak . Example- had court date last week and Cafcass lady ( first I’d seen of here in 8 years) says are you so n so , I said yes , she says I have a report for you to read . I read it and looked at her and said are your reports based on one sided opinion when it comes to a child’s well being ? She says no and report isn’t one sided . I then asked her the credentials she has - she didn’t like that but- after she tells me I then said great - I’ve ascertained your clever enough to understand the term one sided report . To clarify - have you spoke to ex - she says yes - have you spoke to myself - she says no - is that not one sided ??? It took 20 minutes to debate that fact where as now court adjourned till she interviews myself . How do you reckon that’s going to go ? They seem to be biased , angry , and don’t care about the child’s needs what so ever . Love the part they say I’m here fir the best fir your child - I’m like really - do you know my daughter , what’s her fav colour , food, movie, place , etc .. How could you possibly be here for the best when they have no idea of the past with in that family . Mate I feel for you and every other dad out there . I don’t understand something that’s become an epidemic isn’t looked at . I’m sure there are terrible people out there and I assume the fall out of the few good ones that get hurt don’t matter. I can assure you they hear me and will continue. I kissed [censored] , smiled , jumped through years of hoops , even signed stuff - never do - but won’t anymore as it makes you seem weak to them , makes their jobs easy to just believe the lies . Yes they hold the cards and I keep asking why aren’t I seeing my daughter- never get an answer in the past two years of these latest episodes. It’s proven she lies but still it goes on in courts. Are the courts better than the CPS or detectives who put in countless hours of investigations to come to conclusion it’s all BS. Wait the court takes verbal diarrhoea from ex and that’s gospel after all
Proven BS . How does one deal with such a lack of disregard fir ones life ???? Stay strong my brother and be prepared to have your brain broken. Exercise a lot to keep brain healthy . It will eat your up alive .
