the father of my son always has something negative to say about me and my parenting. im basically a single mother who lives with my childs father and i work with my 1 yr old. i dont feel that i should have to hold him while i do everything but if his father hears him cry he flips out on me saying im a bad mother that i should have never had our son.because of his father i end up holding my child a lot. if i have to shower or do anything for me i ask his dad to watch him real quick and he always says wait until he goes to sleep, but if he wakes up he'll barge in on me in the shower yellin to get out cause our son woke up from his nap. he always threatens to call cps on me. i had to quit my second job because he wouldnt watch our child. he also says he will let our child know when he's older what a bad mother i was. i love my son and it kills me when he says these things to me. is this mental abuse?
Brittany, I think it is time for you to have the dad leave the house or you leave. How old are the both of you? You should not be going through all of this. It just doesnt have to be like this. Why is he still in the same house, are you guys together or not together? You keep saying the father of your son but not boyfriend or husband. What is the situation?

i am 21 yrs old and his father is 22. were together but we dont act like it. basically i feel trapped. he says if we dont live togther he wants our son 50% of the time. but he doesnt help me with anything and i dont want to give up my son to him 50% of the time because he will have his family do everything for him and i think that our son should have his "parents" raise him. i know that if we went to court i would probably win but... his father lives a different life style and makes me believe what he says. he threatens me a lot and breaks all my things. so i end up doing nothing because im sick of dealing with my stuff being broken and my family being threatend. i dont know what to do anymore. i just want my son to be happy and i also want to be happy.
Brittany, your son is not gaining from his fathers behavior. He should not see any of it, him breaking things, hearing his words towards you. This is not a good two parent home. I know this from experience. You just have to go.....even if it is just to OPEN his eyes. Show him you are stronger, you can deal with this in a healthy way. He may see that he has made some big mistakes and begin to change. What do you think about that?
Startover is 100% correct. This is not a healthy situation for you or your son. You are not a bad mother, he is a bad father. It's time to get out and file for full custody, you need to make a better life for yourself and your child.

I feel he is controlling me with our son... and im very sick of it. He will let me go but he will still controll me. like he wants him 50% of the time.i cant have our son at his dads this day and at mine the next. if i move from my place to another he will want copies of the keys , he will always stop by day or night , he wants to make sure im not talking to other men. i still wont be happy.

What would he do if you went straight down to the court house and filed for custody, then told him he needed to leave? Tell me what you think would happen?

he would say i have 30 days to leave. i would have to go through the eviction process. (i have already dealt with this b4 and i called a help line and they told me he was right that he has 30 days)and he would tell me he wont show up to court. and then he would say if you try to take my son away from me your family will pay you will pay and everything i own will be desroyed.
Brittany, when you write this does this sound good??
I know it doesn't, you have to get out of this. Do you have a family member you can stay with? Is your name on the lease or is his? Can anyone help you where you live, family or friend.......
