Only you can decide that in your heart.

I am sure loads of people will give you advice, but at the end of the day it's your life, and you need to ake that decision

A friend of mine let his ex move into his flat with 2kids and a dog.

He moved into lounge, bed everything. She was in bedroom with all her stuff and 2 kids. Didn't bother registering homeles, but claimed housing benefit, trashed the rooms, didn't clean.

the only way he could get rid was to terminate his tenancy and the council evicted her..

Your choice.

Just another thought, for the future good of your family!

As much as your son might want him there (and maybe idolises his dad a bit) it's not good for your son to see you seemingly accepting that behaviour or seeing that behaviour first hand.

Having him back might be like saying it's alright.

I wish you strength. x.

you split up for a reason, and that reason should be enough to keep you apart.

offer support if you feel obligated, but, and im always telling V this, dont let your children tell you how to run your own home.

you are the adult and you make the decisions you feel are best for all concerned.

My stepdaughter ended up in hospital at the hands of her ex, he was violent and abusive and she let him back in,for different reasons and nearly regretted it for the rest of her life. He's your ex for a reason so I would say a BIG no, your son will get over the disappointment but it would be massively harder for you if it went wrong..Good luck

Who is in charge of your household? Much as you might like to let your son have his say it is not a democracy.

There are reasons why your ex is your ex and they are beyond the usual "we've grown apart"

Your decision, but it is yours and not your sons.

It takes strength and courage to end an abusive relationship so hold on to that strength now and don't give in. Ask yourself is this the role model you want your son to look up to and follow? Your son might not understand your decision right now but one day he will be mature enough to understand your reasons.

Just a thought but from what you have written you only have your ex partner's word for the reasons for the eviction. Men/women who are controlling are very adept at manipulating people's emotions to get what they want.

All the best, take care and stay safe, your son needs you in his life. x

you're dead right with your stats:

In 2010/2011, an average of 2 women a week were killed by a male and/or former partner: this constituted around one-third of all female homicide victims (Smith, Osborne, Lau, & Britton, 2012). This finding is consistent with previous years (Department of Health, 2005; Home Office, 1999; Povey, 2004, 2005).

Keeping your child and yourself psychologically as well as physically safe from harm should be your main priority. Mental abuse is just as bad as physical so please don't be manipulated by this person. Your son will thank you one day for not allowing a man who once terrorised both him and his mother back into their home. As a mother it is our responsibility to teach our sons that women must be treated with dignity and respect. Keep well xxxx

You've definitely done the right thing.

Are you able to compromise with your son by saying you'll support his Dad (keeping any access visits he has etc) but explain that you can't have him back in the house?

Not sure how old your son is or what he knows about the reasons you split, but if he does know then maybe he needs a little reminder that it's probably not a good thing coming to stay!

I agree with the sentiments expressed by everyone on this thread.

It is emotional blackmail for him to use your son to influence you into letting him stay.

you've managed to get him out of your life before and that must have taken strength and courage. If he stays it may be hard to get him to leave again. Your son will accept your decision eventually and it is the best one for him in the long term

Personally - I don't think you should let your ex move in. Tough I know as you have a son together , but you need to keep yourself safe. As others have said - he's an ex for a reason!

However - re him being evicted. Is there anyway he cAn pay towards the rent arrears to stop the eviction? I'm not sure if it's a private tenancy or social housing one. If it's a private one - has he approached his Local Authority for housing advice? Has he been to the CAB too ?

Isn't it amazing that 'men' with violent and controlling attitudes towards women aren't able to control their own lives. Im assuming this so called mate is a male too. If keeping the roof over my head was dependant on another person then I'd make sure (not violent)that person was keeping their part of the bargain too.

As for your son. He's an adult and should respect your decisions otherwise you are teaching him to be just like his father by using manipulation (bullying tactics) to get his own way. Thankfully you have decided against.
