It seems every 3 months he gets very irritated and will pick a fight with me over something small, but it will turn in to a huge fight. He has kicked our daughter and I out of our apartment, he will call me names (idiot, dumbass) and come down on me for my parenting (I am a stay at home mom, and do everything for her, he only sees her 15 mins-45mins a day) He is basically living as if he didn't have a child, he works, yes, but he would be working if he didn't have a kid. I use any money I get (child tax) to buy my daughters stuff (diapers, food etc) He sleeps until noon on his days off, never woken up with her, changes maybe 1 diaper a week and doesn't bathe her or put her to sleep. He will come and go as he pleases and has never even taken her out for a walk or to the park. He seems to think he is father of the year and I do nothing and with these arguments on top of it, I am starting to wonder if I should even stay. I love him so much but the fact I feel like a single mother anyways, I wonder if it's worth holding on to. I just feel he thinks very little of me and I just need some advice. Am I being petty over this? I just don't know if maybe I am overreacting.Thanks

In no way are you overreacting or being petty..your boyfriend has the balls to throw you and his child out on the streets? I'm appalled by that, I wonder how he treated you during your pregnancy. He's mentally abusing you and isn't stepping up to the role as a father..He fails to acknowledge he has a child. Your best bet is to get out of this relationship for yourself and your baby. What he is doing to you he will turn right around and do to your daughter when she gets older..Don't let her go through the disappointment of having a deadbeat dad who doesn't want to take her to the playground much less give her the time of day at home. She doesn't have to grow up with a father like that. You can show her a better life, one without her disappointing father..It's really sad he can't look at what he created with you and shower her with love and affection. Take your daughter and go after your sperm donor for child support..that's the least he owes you and his daughter.
