    There isn't really anything stopping either parent going out on a saturday night, wherever the kids happen to be, just get a babysitter over. They shouldn't feel quilty about it, they can leave as the kids would be going to bed, so its not as if they are losing any quality time.

    Friends and family of ours use a really good and relaiable babysitting service www.sitters.co.uk, unless they have persuaded dh and I to help out. They have never had any problems with them. All booked on line, text confirmation sent to your phone. Apparently the babysitter phones on the day to re-confirm. Very professional by all accounts. Something I will be using, as and when needed when my twins arrive next year.

    If he's truly concerned for the safety of his children he can contact social services. Anyone can if they are worried a child may be in danger.
