Access following separation
Notifications OFF
We had the knock back in November and I've decided to split with my partner for the sake of my children and their future. I'm now trying to figure out how much access to give him. He would prefer to be here everyday, but I think that is confusing for my young children. But equally they love him and would WANT him here everyday. I think less contact is kinder in the long term, but soooo hard short term. I had wondered two dinners / bed times a week and a day on the weekend with my mother in law?!
Just wondered what other people did? At present my partner requires supervised access and SS / police described him as a low risk.
Thank you x

Hi,
I think that sounds fair. Our daughter hasn't ever known dad to be at home, contact was initially once a week but as she has got older that didn't feel right for any of us. We're at around 3 times a week now which I would be happy to continue if we decided our relationship isn't working. I think it's about striking a balance for all of you. You don't want to give the children false hope that things will go back to how they were but also want them to maintain a relationship with their dad xxx
