I contacted my solicitor right away. That's all I could do. Statements are due today for the next custody court case so I had to be highly aware that W may have been trying to create a situation this morning to use against me.

I was just there to enjoy the event and W turned up later. W looked very shifty, tired, unhappy, nervous, and couldn't even look at me but it didn't bother me as I felt detached. I was polite, calm, happy and confident as usual. I felt a good inner strength. I was happy mixing with other people. W didn't. I noticed that W stepped towards me when I stepped away. I said to youngest that we were both very proud. W repeated that soon afterwards. W said to youngest to hold my hand. It all went wrong when youngest felt upset at not winning and W said to youngest 'do you want to go home?' then took youngest away early. It seems that W doesn't say 'no' to anything the kids want. W seems to think it's a popularity contest ahead of the next court case. In my book, that isn't good parenting but it might help her to win.

I am trying to learn and follow as much DB as I can and the books have now arrived so I'm reading them.
