Is it legal to log onto someone else Facebook and take photos of inboxes to use as proof of something? I know there are conversations between SD and H discussing her moving out?

I don't know if it's illegal or not, but it lacks ethics.
It also isn't likely to be admissible in court proceedings... so, really, all it will do is upset you. I wouldn't bother.

Ok, don't want to do anything wrong. Someone on here suggested I get some proof that she's gone but my gut instinct agrees with you.

No it would be my Hs Facebook. And she already goes to school in the area as she's lived with us for two years. Her BM is also local but the house may be considered over crowding for a 13 year old

I can see this turning into a big mess. The family courts here will look at the needs of each child and maybe that's how the decision will be made. I have been told to not leave as it automatically reduces my rights. I just want my kids to keep their home.

I have shot myself in my own foot haven't I? My worry is if I move out will he then be allowed to stay there till SD is 18. Because with my children in a new home then her needs will be the only ones considered. Hoping the solicitor will make me feel better tomorrow
