writes: Hello everyone. I have a huge problem. I'm in a relationship with the father of my daughter. Due to financial problems I had to move in into my fathers house. He lives with his mom. we both cannot afford to get a place of our own. So I have been staying at his moms a lot. She has been great to both my daughter and I. The problem is that he always comes home late. His priorities are his friends, and lately I've been hearing things about him with other girls (he has cheated on me before). I'm really fed up with him and very disgusted. I'm suppose to stay at my dad's but it is so hard dealing with my stepmother. Their arguing all day everyday, and I don't want my child to witness any of that. My question is, should I continue staying at my boyfriend's mom's house until I figure out what's my next step? Despite my boyfriend's bull shit?

On the other hand you don't want your child to have to listen to all the bickering.
Start looking at alternatives. Are there any friends you could stay with? Why not go to Citizen's Advice Centre and see what your options are?

 To this issue, where is safer for your child. Tell your boyfriend a child always comes before hanging with friends. I bet when he's there, you're still the one who's caring for the child a majority of the time. He needs to grow up. I'm a single parent, with my oldest turning 18 in October. They grow up once, and if he misses that, there's an amazing experience he's missing.
