Parenting after a messy split

I fought bitterly to get a restraining order against my youngest sons dad because he was abusive. Even though he had assault convictions for beating up my older son and had made threats to kill me and my son, the court refused to put a restraining order on him and allowed him access supervised by his sister who is a meth addict. As you can imagine the effect on my youngest son was devastating.

It's taken years of heartache and suffering to deal with the emotional problems it caused my son being exposed to his fathers and aunts deplorable lifestyle. His schooling suffered. He tried to stab me and his brother and we dealt with the police every other week....unless you're keen on a similar outcome with your children I'd strongly recommend you stick to what the court had ruled.

Your ex has every chance to have a relationship with his children it's his problem if the court order doesn't suit him, it's not your place or job to accommodate him.
