[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does his scariness present in ways that would justify a restraining order, either one protecting you, or one protecting you and the kids?

I have a very scary ex, and we had a restraining order and custody order together that barred contact outside of carefully defined supervised visitation, and also required him to stay away from my home, my job, the kids’ school, and my teenager’s job.

Not physically scary towards the kids. He has escalated his behavior towards me (screaming even though I don’t talk when I see him, physical intimidation) and I have an appointment early tomorrow morning to go through the pros and cons of a restraining order for me, so I’m trying to figure out what I can do to help the kids.

Towards the kids he is just inappropriate (asking invasive questions about their therapy appointments, discussing his legal details, telling them things about me that aren’t real, etc) and he has started violating boundaries in public, forcing hugs and physical contact on them in front of coaches and other parents even when the kids say no or run away, policing their facial expressions, accusing them of things, etc. None of it is black-and-white “bad” behavior but the kids are expressing what seem like bad gut feelings. Our DDs are 11 and 13 so they seem to pick up on more than 9 yo DS.[/quote]
