Case No. EWFC-82

24.Fortunately, P is a delightful little boy. He has no special needs; I am pleased to report. He is developing well in all respects and, therefore, he has no specific physical, emotional and educational needs other than this very important exception: He has had an exceptionally disrupted life for a child who is not yet two. I do not need to outline in this judgment all the moves that he has experienced in his short life, but they would have been immensely disrupting to him and prevent him from feeling settled and secure. 25.He also has been subjected to domestic abuse as well as considerable verbal abuse in the context of serious and loud arguments between the adults. It is accepted in terms of the threshold that P would have suffered significant emotional harm as a result of the arguments between the parties and I found that he would also have suffered significant emotional harm as a result of the domestic abuse I found and was at risk of physical harm. 26.Then there is, of course, the incident of 22 April. Despite his young age, that must have been an exceptionally frightening and distressing experience for him and I am satisfied that that too must at some level have left its mark. Therefore P does have vulnerabilities as a result of his life experiences to date despite his ostensible excellent physical, social and emotional presentation.
