Does he own the house jointly with you?he has no assets.
This kind of suggests that he won't be able to pay the mortgage.He kinda always lived off me, after 15 years I only realised this...
Should also add I am aware I am liable for mortgage, when the ex messes it up
By law, an unmarried mother is the sole guardian of a child born outside of marriage.
Unless the mother agrees to sign a statutory declaration, an unmarried father must apply to the court in order to become a legal guardian of his child.
In that case you need to discuss the matter again with your solicitor in the light of the ongoing situation. If it is truly unbearable for everybody to live together then the issue of moving out may need to be broached again.Anyhow, My ex still lives in house, its unbearable now
...
I have been given legal advice which is do not move out, which is not a runner anymore.
I agree wholeheartedly with this. It may sound trite and may not be easy but the child is the most vulnerable party in all of this and needs to be protected by both parents separating guardianship/custody/other welfare issues from other areas of disagreement and not using these as threats against each other. Mediation should be considered if there is any chance of it working to settle even some of the areas of disagreement.I think both of you need to stop using access to the child as a weapon. Him saying no access, you more or less saying the same. What is in the child's best interest? It may very well be joint custody. You might not think he is a good influence but almost certainly it is better for your child to have an ongoing relationship with his dad rooted in day to day living not just Sunday visits.
Of course, but your child has a right to a relationship with his father too just as, like you, the father has rights and responsibilities in this situation.My main priority is my child
There is a service called mediation where separating couples come to the table and agree a separation without going fully legal about things.
He has refused mediation.
