My husband and his family have made threats about me taking our 5 children. We are in the middle of a very nasty separation. I want to work out the problems for the children my husband doesn't. I don't want to put the children in a bad situation because there father and I can't be civil. The last altercaton my ex and I had was 2 nights ago. I wound up I was trying to lock myself in my room(we sleep in separate quarters) and he kicked the door in hitting me. I have friends and family willing to help me in Ocala,Fl. But, I have no way to take my children nor the immediate help with the children. I want to know what would be the worst case to least case scenerio would happen if I leave my children with their father. I would only leave because I am concerned for my safety. I'm not concerned that their father would hurt the children- I'm just not sure that he won't hurt me again.

Worst case - he will beat you up anyway or hurt the chldren.
He could even try and get you back.
Last case - He will treat the children how they deserve and you will keep in contact with children regularly.

If I were you I would tlak to police or someone in authortiy.
