Help required
Hi all.
This is a touchy, hard subject.
As a male, needing a protection order to be safe.
How do I go about this?
I have contacted the community law center and said about my situation, and the reply was they don't think I can do much.
Some background.
My wife and daughter are at logaheads. My wife has suffered what we thought was depression for nearly 8 years and was basically bedroom bound.
Then all of a sudden she went manic and has been sectioned.
She had access to her phone and computer. My daughter and I get constant abuse and threats via these methods.
I rang community law and they said there is not much I can do.
REALLY? If I said or did half of what my partner is doing I am sure she would get immediate help. But I can not get her to stop harressing or abusing either myself or my daughter.
Any suggestions?

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝
In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”
We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?
Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.

New neighbour
Okay folks, if you feed your animals outside, you might want to rethink that. We have new nocturnal neighbours, inside Havelock North.
There is a very well fed brush tail possum up the pōhutukawa tree in my garden.
I don’t know where it’s come in from, but it’s in the middle of a residential neighbourhood, so keep an eye on your pet doors, open windows and doors and pet food.
I’ll be notifying council and DOC tomorrow.
