This is a recording where I am setting a boundary with my ex-husband that he is not allowed to approach me under any circumstance anywhere. I needed him to meet me at a police station where there were cameras because his behavior was unpredictable and there was a history of domestic violence and his mother had also been physically aggressive with me and so I felt for For the safety of the children and myself it was best to have cameras around because it was difficult for me to get witnesses. My ex-husband also told the court that I was mentally ill without a psych evaluation being ordered and without any proof or evidence of his assumption of my mental health. If I think someone is unpredictable or not trustworthy I do not have any desire to go near them especially since I have experienced severe trauma as a child and survived a serious crime that was perpetrated on me by my parents including my father who is employed as a united Methodist minister by the Texas annual conference. My Ex-husband has told everyone I’m crazy and so if he thinks I’m crazy there’s absolutely no reason for him to want to approach me. I also have them on recording saying he doesn’t want to come anywhere near me so if that is the case then why would he approach me in a parking lot? Being a survivor of a crime I think your head and I know I have been through enough trauma and enough chaos that I am going to think ahead and protect myself and there’s absolutely nothing wrong knowing that I have survived a crime and survive domestic violence with wanting to ensure that the transition between exchanging children goes smoothly even if it means meeting where there are law enforcement around.
