havent got a residence order, just thought as i was the sole carer for the kids and hes of no fixed abode that was the state of play, know differently after reading threads here, my rubbish solicitor said at the time of raising that point theres no need to go into it as the kids live with me..she said he can slap an order on me from moving out of wales to england as technically i cant move to scotland, ireland or england as he can say its too far for him to travel, bearing in mind he wont work as he doesnt want to pay csa! im so worried of this as i know we will get a better life there, my partner has taken the kids as his own, even to the point where the little one calls him daddy. We want to marry, i can finally be able to work again, which will better my values and life, i will have a family support network with his family, as i have nothing here, i have no help with the kids, my ex pays nothing to them, or supports them emotionally. Was told this is something the interfering goverment bought out last year, this order to stop you moving away from the childrens other parent if its deamed too far, i would be moving 165 miles away, 2.5 hours by coach, i would want him to still have contact, even to the point where i would go out of my way to bring the little one back to wales once a month for him to have him for the weekend and collect him, that would be by coach, but i would be willing, i am so desperate for him not to stop me. My older child has no desire to communicate with his dad, he was there when he beat me up, so hes washed his hands of him.
