Hi bluedaisy, congrats on nearly finishing your course, you must have worked hard to get nearly to the end of it! With child maintenance questions, have you had a look at our pages on this topic, we are getting so many comments about this crazy system, it's just so unfair! I am sure it was thought out by somebody who thinks that everybody is on at least a grand a week so a few quid more or less won't make any difference! We are still fighting it as much as we can through petitions and our parliamentary representative!

If you need advice, send an email to Jean, our CMS/CSA expert, she really knows her stuff and I am sure will have some good advice!

Hi aphy, 

that's exactly why this new law is so wrong! If you can go through mediation and get a maintenance agreement that is great, but this law was passed by people who have never been anywhere near a violent or abusive partner, and have no idea of how difficult it is to get an angry ex not to take it out on the children. Instead now it's the CMS who take it out on the children. 

They have promised a review of this legislation. We are collecting as many stories as we can of how this is just not working.

Well done bluedaisy, 6 workers seems a good round number! So who are they and how did you do it?

It's good news that things are moving forward, and very glad the Freedom Programme is helping. Don't rush it. It will take a lot longer than you think to, as you put it, get him out of your head. And be careful that he doesn't try to get back at you next time you feel vulnerable.

Keep us posted!
