Hi. I''m going through divorce on the grounds of unreasonable behaviour, mental, psychological abuse from my ex. Me and my son are moving out of the matrimonial home as the atmosphere is unbearable.My solicitor couldn''t do anything to make him move out as the house deeds are on his sole name. He lies to solicitor and denies all of my allegations. What hurts me the most is that he is using my son to hurt me by keeping him in front of the telly till 10pm when I ask him to let the child go up to the bed and he says''''ignore everything that she is saying to you''''. My son is very tired on a morning because of this and it affects his work at school. He asked contact arrangements: every monday 6.30pm to 8.15pm, every wednesday 6.30pm to 8.15pm and friday 6pm to saturday 6pm. I agreed, but think it is wrong to keep the child of 9 till so late on weekdays.He constantly shouts at my son and bullies him (the main reason for the divorce), what would you advise how can | stop this? Social services? As my solicitor says wait till you move out and then pass the case to court.Thank you.

I would wait till you move out, its not really a SS issue .. I would suggest 7pm is more reasonable so you got an hour for shower/bath and settle him in bed at a more apropiate time.
