Seperation and Access to Children

    Just looking for some advice. My mother split with her husband 23 months ago - they are currently going through the courts as he hasn't paid a penny towards his 3 children since he left. He's been dragging his heels and is doing everything to delay proceedings (been adjourned 4 times now).

    In the meantime the kids have kept in touch however the eldest one has decided he doesn't to talk to him anymore. Basically he discovered his father had been lying about a lot of things and discovered he has been gambling about 2-3k per week.

    Now the father is trying to turn the children against each other. He is crying to the youngest child (13) about the other one not talking to him, how could he do that and how he has nothing left etc.

    This is all having a really bad effect on the youngest child - she feels sorry for her dad, is annoyed with everyone else (especially her brother and mam) and is beginning to act out.

    Is there any way of stopping the father having access to the child and letting the courts sort it all out?
