writes: Hello all, I have somewhat of a complicated question to ask...My husband and I are getting a divorce. Back in November we had a fight, he got physical with me and I called the police. There is a temporary restraining order on him and the hearing for the permanent one is tomorrow. We have a five month old son and I really would rather not let my soon to be ex have any sort of visatation. During our one year marriage I have seen my ex throw things and leave welts on his niece, I have seen his mother slap her grand baby, and I have seen him let his 3 year old daughter, from another relationship, go wherever she pleases(ex.to the neighbors when no one is home). I am extremely worried that if I leave my little one with him he will hurt him or completely egnore him. While we were married he yelled at our child for crying, he always thought that the baby was trying to piss him off. He would always have to pass his son off to other people when we were around others. Supervised visatation is out because he's not willing to have somebody watch him with his son.So what do I do? I am scared to let his father watch him (even for an hour), but I feel bad by not letting him see his child. Please help!

Hell no don't leave your baby with him!!!! If you feel the slightest bit edgy about him then don't do it!!! See if you can get him supervised visitations... that way someone from the court is always there to make sure nothing bad does happen. I would not trust to have a baby of mine around a man like that alone. don't give him the rights.
