Thanks in advance!
My story:
- married with a 5 year old.
- ongoing DV mainly using child, emotional and psych Abuse. Also, physical (can I say nothing major though?). i haven’t reported anything as afraid to start something that gets out of control and it works against me as I am male. Basically, I feel I could meet 7 of the 8 Duluth model categories (excl male privledge).
- I would argue I’m primary carer. I have a great relationship with my child, we are best buddies.
- when wife and I worked (past 12 months) I did everything (and I mean everything) starting from afternoon pickups to tending throughout the night and most times before work excluding breakfast as too early. Weekends it was me 24/7. All domestic duties me. Financially joint.
- when wife didn’t work (prior to the 12 months above I did the majority of everything. The only difference to the above point is I didn’t do afternoon pick ups. child was in daycare. Financially all me.
- I recently moved interstate for work (new job). Wife said She will come but now that I’ve gone has changed her mind and has our child.
my question is, do I have any chance of getting my child back If I start legal proceedings and realistically, what is the likely outcome Of any litigation?
