People have been questioning my ability to protect my kids since my husband still lives in the house while I have a restraining order against him.
In the state of VA, a judge can issue a restraining order - LAWFUL CONTact only. This means as long as the accused does not engage in erratic behavior ( threats to self harm, or hurt others, or destroy property, do drugs, or drinks etc...) and complies to court order ( see a therapist, psychiatrist, attend aa meetings) then he’s allowed to be around.
I’m having a hard time staying married with him. But I respect the law and system that are protecting me and my children.
