Our daughter lives in New Zealand but still a Brit. She married a Kiwi and has two young children (3 and 5). He has been a bit of a tw@ since the pandemic and has been violent towards her and the children - not blackmeyebstuff but pushing them around and low level stuff: so much so she threw him out several months ago. He has the children one day a week but cannot cope with them for any longer. He was getting aggressive because he is psychotic (soft drug misuse as a teenager and young adult).
She would like to return here to live and thinks he will try to stop her. I am thinking - get a divorce and f..k him and come home. I believe the laws in NZ are pretty similar to ours (unless someone knows differently); what would happen here if a NZ National wanted to return home with the kids?
Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. It is looking like a trip to a solicitor when we are over there next month.
