    I don't know where to start but basically I want to know where I find out my rights to kids if I were to split from my husband? In heated arguements before he has said he would be keeping them if I was ever to leave.

    OP, posters here cannot offer you legal advice. I will leave the thread open for the moment, as you may get some help or be pointed in the right direction, but if it starts veering towards legal advice I will have to close it.

    Any poster who offers legal advice, will be actioned.

    I think you need to step back, and look around at the number of sperated parents out there when you listen to that nonsense. Look around at the vatious situations, it is rare for mothers to be seperated from their kids and when it does happen, it is for a good reason.

    People say all sorts of things when they are angry and trying to be hurtuful and manipulative. He sounds like he is feeling threatened and is lashing back at you.

    This isn't legal advice but the family courts are in place for these reasons and in my experience, their main objective is to ensure that children come out of seperations in the fairest way. (i.e. - action would only be enforced if the JUDGE thinks its in the best interest of the child) which your husband would have to prove.

    Having been through this situation and out the far side, mediation is always the best approach (but only if on good terms) and in answer to your question, what he is suggesting is very unlikely to happen without just reason. (in the best interest of the child)
