Hi July 11th this year my husband got a 2 year suspended sentence, 10 years on the sec offenders register

the first knock on door was jan 18 it took 18 months to come to court. My life has been destroyed we have 2 grown up boys the youngest never wanting to have any contact with his dad. The eldest son my son not my husband’s took it better even though he has 3 children, their first reaction was for my husband not to the children, after 12 months they had a change of heart and allowed my husband to see them, which was great. My daughter in law and my sons ex partner went to the court hearing and how things were said and explained ripped them apart, so much so that they once again stopped him seeing the children

On the day of the hearing the court case was published in the local paper and our world fell apart, my husband moved out and spent 6 weeks in a motor home, away from the area we had lived for the last 34 years!

Since August we have both moved into a rented property just a few miles from the matromonial home. Our home grind up for sale as my husband can’t go back thereim having doubts as to whether I should have gone with him as I miss the house we had only been on 12 months

will live get better is any one out there in the same sort of position?

Hi Susie,

You are in a difficult stage, you are in the aftermath. The hardest part for me was after the media got hold of the so called story and basically flushed me out my home and it's happened again with horrid neighbours. The Joy's of rural living I suppose.

I was gutted about leaving our first home. We were there for over 10 years. It was our first home, we kuved there when we got married, lived there when we had our babies but also lived there for the knock. A home is what you make it, it's sad to see it go but it's just bricks. You will find a way through it.

We are moving into our new home, it's not the big house we had but itll be a happier place. X
