My ex partner & I broke up in 2012. Kids are ages 6 & 8. She had the kids up until Sep 2015. Until then, I had them during holidays & some weekends.
I took them away from her due to her having an alcohol addiction, not enough food & a filthy house the kids were living in. She has refused mediation, so I will be receiving a Certificate of her Non Attendance. She has made accusations against the lady from 'Act for Kids' who is trying to support both parties. She has been reported to DOCS multiple times, not from myself.
DOCS have spoken to the kids and found out she was hitting them all over their bodies. The kids also missed almost a whole term of school this year while in her care. There is a Domestic Violence Order in place against her, stopping her from coming to mine & my partner's residence. She is also not allowed to pick up the children from school. Now she is going for full custody of children.
Does she have any chance of getting it?
