      I am trying to work out how to untangle myself from a (detail removed by moderator) year relationship with a boyfriend who attempted to strangle me, plus
      My ex has been living with my daughter (age (detail removed by moderator)) since I ran away because of threats to my life ((detail removed by moderator)yr relationship)
      He has been getting increasingly hostile towards her, & treating her like he treated me
      Bursts of being nice with aggressive/ threatening outbursts
      He had a letter from my solicitor saying I can prove his abuse & he can communicate through my daughter (he has dragged the divorce on for 3.5 years
      He went berserk & said to her if she doesnt get out in (detail removed by moderator) her life will be in danger too 🙄
      I am trying to get her out safely
      I dont understand why he is threatening us both, he has a new woman he is going to marry as soon as the divorce is through, he has squandered all the divorce assets & I am living in secret with no money
      My daughter wants to report her dad to the police but until she has got out I dont want them going to the house because he will be much more angry & puts her & me at risk

      I’d get her to report him to the police. Threats like these need to be taken seriously and if she’s brave enough to report him then she will get support. You’re not there to support and protect her and she’s certainly old enough to act. She should know she can ring 999 when she feels threatened. He can communicate via a solicitor as your daughter shouldn’t be involved in this. It’s obviously dangerous for her. He’s losing control of you both and that makes him very dangerous.

      Thankyou for your your advice
      I am very proud that she is being so brave about her dad
      Much braver than I have ever been
      & that she sees him for what he is
