It’s not that straightforward. It really isn’t.You would be happy telling a woman who had escaped an abusive relationship to do this if she wanted to see her kids? In the home where she'd been abused and from which she'd escaped?
Thousands of women have to endure emotionally abusive ex partners and seeing them often because they have young children together.
Being at risk of physical abuse is different and there are many agencies in place to help an individual escape without having to leave their children behind.
I have no idea if Ioan is at risk of physical abuse from Alice. What I do know is that Alice is clearly mentally unwell and if I needed to wear a body cam to have eyes on my children to make sure they were okay, then I would.
I’m not telling women in abusive relationships to do anything.
