People leave their spouses every single day. She could have moved out with an emergency custody order. I know people who got their spouse booted from the house and supervised visitation based on much, much less. I’m not saying this to criticize her but to correct the impression that people are stuck in the marital house with their abuser. [/quote]

The thing is, she DID get him booted from their house.  The time period between the decision to leave/divorce/make him leave and the actual leaving is easily the most dangerous for women..whether is an hour or a week.  Look up the stats- sadly this fits an all to common pattern.[/quote]

She should have left. Much sooner.  That’s the point. [/quote]

She got a court order telling him to move out by April 30th, but she did not got him booted out of the house. He still was physically there and there were no protective order in place. [/quote]

A protective order tends to provoke more than protect. Are you seriously suggesting it would have kept her safe with him entitled to live in the house until 4/30 and have access to his kids?

Genuine protection from abusive narcissistic men is a unicorn in most cases. [/quote]

My ex attempted to kill me and my child and my lawyer said it was a long shot to get the protective order because I had to prove not only that he tried to kill us but that he was an on-going threat. How TF would anyone reach that standard?

It also took 8K leading up to the protective order trial. So it'll cost you something like 15-20k to get a protective order (or not). [/quote]
