What is the name of your state? Florida
I have a friend that is trying to leave her "boyfriend" of ten years, all ten of which they have lived together. They have 2 children together, one 8 and the other 2.5 years old. She left because for about the last year he was using drugs and being abusive, physically and mentally. She moved out with the children about 35 miles away from him. As soon as this happened, he began to call and harass and somehow found out where she lived and began to "stalk" her. She wanted to be fair to the children, so she let him take the kids every other weekend. However, he shows up with the kids and then won't leave. Or he just shows up under the prentense of seeing the kids, but neother time will he leave when asked or even begged. He continues to harass and verbally abuse her in front of the children. And even tell the children that their mother doesn't want/care about them.
She has filed a restraining order but was dropped due to DCF involvement and the possiblilty of the children being taken away from her. So now she feels trapped.
The question is, how can she set it up to let him see the kids without him interfering , harassing or abuse her and her children? He should come at his designated time and day get the kids and leave and return them on time and then leave. She was told that if the DCF beomes involved again. the children will be taken from both of them.
