Social services/Family Court - anyone have a +ve experience

My wife walked out with the kids in January after assaulting me.

Police response has been a joke. Faild to notice the injury on back of my head and I have no recollection of a two hour period as presumably I suffered a concussion.

All social services have done is declare me a safeguarding risk and denied all access to the children as I had the cheek to go to the kids school and try and collect them. perfectly legal as my wife had no custody order. In effect my wife used violence to grab the kids and has got away with it. Domestic abuse of a man is not recognised by police. 

Is this normal? It seems outrageous and completely contrary to government guidelines on autism.

Attitude of the Family Court was appalling. I have to prove I am not a risk. If I argue with social worker over my wife's version of events I am unstable and denying the truth that I am an abuser!

This is despite me being the stay at home parent. I sorted out my autistic sons EHCP, DLA etc and school issues.

Social services have encouraged my wife to change the children's school to one nearer her temporary accommodation.

By the time I found out youngest had started so Family Court won;t reverse and the autistic son is new stuck at home until the new school recruit a TA.

I simply can't believe this rubbish. i will lose my home, life savings the lot. All because I am autistic and all the assets will go to provide a home for kids in a new area with property 50% more expensive. I will be left with nothing.

How can this be right. Blatant discrimination but it seems the Family Court isn;t covered by Equality Act and I have no rights what so ever. Daylight robbery!

  • Hi Ken, find an advocate, have you 'spoken ' to the  help people at NAS? Telephone: 0808 800 4104
    Helpline opening hours: Monday-Thursday 10am-4pm, Friday 9am-3pm (excluding Bank holidays)

    Legally they are not allowed to discriminate against you, but it would appear that you are right. Without including the autism you are at a huge disadvantage because you are male. It appears to me that you as a male can do nothing right. Sorry
