That is terrible that your neighbors are lying. They should be penalised for wasting police time. I personally would not report the kids being out because you don't want to get into neighborhood disputes. If you know when the kids are out I recommend only allowing your ex to come over when they are not around. That way it won't give the neighbors 'ammo' to kick off of they spot him. But keep records of all negative events and if police turn up again always show previous reports to demonstrate that the neighbors have in the past made up lies. I hope sooner rather than later it will calm down for you

I know we shouldn't have to do this but we put up a camera in the front to protect ourselves from the neighbours. This was because of a few incidents that took place. What's even better is it has a microphone on it and I dont think the neighbours realise so we can hear everything they say as well as do. Its was £30 of amazon and we bought a cheap sd card to go I side. This way you have proof of what goes on. Xxx hope this helps xxx also you can report every little thing but ask for no further action to be taken you just want it documenting so that if this dont stop you have a trail of the harassment. Just just fill out an online form and they will call you can for further information. Xxx

Stay strong christine o dont think it would be as bad if we were not in lock down these people have nothing better to do. Xxxx

If I was you I'd get rid of facebook or if you want it change all your setting so only true friends can see what you are posting and that people cant tag you in other posts.

I have had to deactivate my facebook because of backlash on social media. We had a neighbour arrested the other sunday as he assaulted my husband in the back garden. Another neighbour made it out the reason he was assaulted was because was looking at a child and put it all over facebook. People are just sheep they follow rather than finding out for themselves. By the way he wasnt he was in the kitchen washing and the neighbour started on me and he ran out to defend me which I got mad at him for because he wont let me have my say and defend myself.

All you have to remember is we have done nothing wrong and we have the big picture they dont.

We have to live our lives for ourselves not for others.

My husband has done a terrible thing the worst but I do not believe he is a bad person.

That is completely your decision sweetie if it's what you want.

I have been with my partner for 17 years and it wasnt going to walk away from that without finding everything out. We have spent time apart and I found it hard as we couldn't talk really about everything. He moved back in and it just felt right. We had separate bedrooms for a while and we still aren't as intimate as we used to be but that's don to the press posting his sentencing. I always said I didnt know what would happen if it went in the media but I hasnt changed how I feel. I just think some of the society's ideas on the law is backwards.

Have you thought about having a fresh start somewhere new? Has your ex been sentenced?

Delete Facebook, Twitter etc. You will only see negativity. As for neighbours, mine were the same. SSPCA, NSPCC and police were constantly phoned about me neglecting my kids, cats and even the goldfish ( I wish I was joking). They have to check everything is ok but after a few visits they make a phonecall instead. Those reporting should get charged for malicious calls but it apparently may stop real crime being reported. Bleurgh. X
