Over a month and a half ago, I was mandated by the CAS to leave the home with my son as I was in an abusive situation. I had packed up a couple of bags and went to the women's shelter for a few days and then a girlfriend had offered me a room in her house, so I subsequently moved there. My husband has been pleading his case, going to counselling, reading books, signing up for anger management courses. He said he will do anything to keep our family intact and he did not realize his actions and now he is at rock bottom. At the shelter I had gone to the court to file seperation papers. After a few discussions with my husband I agreed to withdraw the papers and "think about" the route of our marriage. In turn, I can take my son to my home provice for approximately a month. Currently I am with my son and my parents in my home-town which is about a five hour flight from Toronto. My stay is coming to and end and I am not ready to reconcile with my husband. Nor do I want to overstay at my girlfriends house. I have limited income as I'm on maternity leave and don't know where to even start in terms of housing. I was told as I have a job, I don't qualify for co-op housing. I would like to stay here for longer...but we agreed on a time frame that I would be away from him with our son. I really have nothing to go back to except that it would allow him to see his son.
What are your thoughts on:
-me staying away for longer
-can he go to court and order us back?
-any information on housing?
-i understand he has an equal right to our son, but I really don't have anything to go back to besides to let him see our son.
Feedback would be great!
