my ex has filed an application for sole custody amongst other things. I am preparing my answer and will also be seeking sole custody.
on question 8 it asks if I am aware of any violence or abuse that should be considered. During the marriage there was an incident with my ex where she was trying to get me to fight her (she is very confrontatiional).
In this incident she kicked and hit me along side my head while holding our 6 month old.
I left the house and drove to her families house and was very upset. Her sister was very supportive and said she was sorry I was going through this and shared similiar stories of her being violent. my ex later apologized said it would never happen and it was discussed in marriage counselling. she never was physically abusive again, but was definately verbally abusive.
She had also told me that during her first marriage her husband was passed out on the bathroom floor and she grabbed him by the hair and banged his head off the floor.
also in her parents home her and her brother got in a fight and she grabbed him by the neck and pushed him against the wall. again she told me.... I did not witness.
last week she told me she was going to punch my gf in the head while we were in front of the children.
should i document these incidents in my report or is it hear say because reports were not filed. even without reports she would have to lie in court to deny.
also should i contact ex husband to hear his side of event?
thanks
