Question posted in the Family Law category relating to Gauteng
Good day. My wife took my kids and left the province. Then while she was in gauteng i recieved a letter stamped in polokwane limpopo that she wants a divorce. Futher they stated that their lawyer said i have no right to contact my kids or her untill the papers of divorce has been recieved. Aswell as stating i am allowed to speak with the kids via her sisters phone only at 7pm at night and not earlier. As i send voice notes everyday saying good morning to my kids it does not get played to them. I feel that they are keeping my kids away from me and trying to make the children believe i do not care. It has been going on now for 2 weeks and i get only 1 phone call a day and nothing else. I only earn a salary of R5500.00 per month and need urgent assistance in fighting for my rights as a parent.
