Okay, so I finally received my S7 Report, and overall the local authority did me fair. If it were not for being poor and under resourced, I could fairly certainly see getting near full readmission in to the lives of my children.
This being said, the other side seems adamant that she does not want to see me and if she isn't able now to get the court to agree to supervised contact (no doubt what her legal aiders will try to do but the S7 won't work in their favour in my case) she will still try to argue to get access to children via third party, for fear of safety and you all know the rest of that recurring script..
But I am adamant I want direct contact especially for exchanges of children, and considering I now have a perfect record of abiding by police bail, NMO (which is now several months expired), got NFA and need for FF waived in court, I want to ask the judge for this at the next hearing soon, so could I ask anyone here who's been through this already how I ought to ask for this, both in my upcoming position statement and also at the actual hearing?
