Domestic abuse and social services taking it too serious
Posted: Thu Dec 14, 2017 4:13 pm
Hello,
I was doing this freedom programme about recognising domestic abuse and obviously it didn’t make my life easier. After having 2 really bad weeks the night after going to the next freedom programme lesson, my partner got angry because our toddler was screaming and said that he feels like he could kill her and throw her agains the walls. We didn’t have an argument I said to him that he should never say things like this and changed the subject. The next morning after speak about all kinds of abuse I told the people who teach us the freedom programme what my partner has said. After I said that he didn’t mean it and I broke down to the wrong people they carried on telling me that it is very serious and I’m not allowed to go back home. Social services have been called and they took me and my daughter far away to a women’s refuge. They keep threatening me that if I have any contact with my partner they will take my baby away. They said I can come back to my partner in a few months after he goes to the psychologist and does a domestic abuse course for male who abuse women. I’ve been told I’m not allowed to speak to any his family either. We have been together for 5 years and this is the first time he said something mean about our daughter. He never went further than pushing me whe we had an argument and the abuse has only been emotional and psychological. Christmas is around the corner and i wish nothing more than changing back the time. I am 2 hours away from my mum and every I know. I want to go and live with his parents but the ss keep say that if something goes wrong then they will remove my child. What should I do ? I can’t stay so far away for 3 months.. does anyone know if I could take this to court and maybe the judge will let me stay with his parents and see my partner from time to time until he gets himself sorted without anyone threatening to remove my child ?
