[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here, thanks for all replies.

To clarify in the past it has not just been force, but actual physical violence - slapping, throw beverage, throw toy... both against me and kid. It has been sporadic, but multiple times over the years, I dont have evidence, but I dont see how this can be denied.

I do understand that a pattern of taking kids away could be detrimental for future custody, and I dont see the need to do it. I guess the best recourse is to call 911 when this happens again.  We are immigrants and in my parents generation there was no legal protection, so women had to take kids and leave, that was the best thing you could do.

Apparently DH saw a lawyer about my taking kids away to overnight and not telling him the hotel name, I am not sure what they told him. [/quote]

He didn't talk to a lawyer, he's lying to you.  Don't take your children over state lines (easy to do around here depending on where you are).  And definitely call the police next time.  Stop trying to handle this yourself.  Get a lawyer ASAP before this gets worse.  And take pictures (of bruises, broken toys, beverages on the ground - whatever you can).  Text your friends what happens and when.  The important part is that your documentation is contemporaneous, so time stamps on texts or pictures are helpful (an iPhone will time stamp a picture if you take it).  [/quote]
