Page 6 | Husband threw something at my head

WhatToDo123abc · 2024-07-12T19:03:35+00:00

My husband just threw a toy at my face while I was holding our toddler. Should I call the police?

wefly · 12/07/2024 20:43

And any other evidence

wefly · 12/07/2024 20:42

Take pic of your lip. Now!!

TeaGinandFags · 12/07/2024 20:42

He throws something at you hard enough to give you a split lip.

You were holding a child at the time, so he was reckless as to the welfare of his child.

He destroys property to then just clear away the evidence.

This man, if not stopped and spare from you and your children, will do serious harm to you and your children. His reign of terror has begun.

Call the police and save your lives. I'm not joking.

Do you get more of a response if it is 101 than the police online form?

He will likely be arrested and so he should be what would happen after that?

What about were me and children will live, and the effect on our sen son? I have been a sahm looking after our son for the past 6 years and dh has the house in his name and most of the money. We are married if that makes a difference

I get your worries but they're not the right reasons to let abuse happen to you and your children, that stuff comes second to your safety and happiness

Is the online domestic form good enough or is it best to call 101?

The police will want to be involved whilst they're is a 'live' situation.

Hope yoire ok x

Call the police but only of you are prepared to go through with whatever it leads to. Don’t call them and then don’t take their advice etc….otherwise he will only see it as a gesture

This. You can expect the info to make its way to social services, Probably no further action at this point from them but you'll all get created on their systems.

Im very upset and not sure what is best to do, is calling police the best thing to do? We have 2 children and been married 8 years.

Hi OP, is this the first time something like this has happened? He could have thrown the toy in frustration, not intending for it to hit you.
I am not making excuses but I think this is something to consider.
Family safety is paramount

Pebbles16 · 12/07/2024 20:36

The online form might trigger a visit but 101 is better. He will likely be arrested and so he should be.

StormingNorman · 12/07/2024 20:35

Can you go to a friend or family nearby? Just for tonight x

DontBiteTheCat · 12/07/2024 20:34

Call 101 if it is safe to do so, could you text someone you trust to come over?

You need to call the police. You have been assaulted while holding your child. It is only through luck that the toy didn’t hit him.

Violence only escalates, it does not get better. You need to call the police for the sake of your children, you need to protect them from his abuse.

Do I call 101. I am worried about the effect it will have on out autistic son. If we split it would really effect him (he in only 6)

What about the effect on him if the physical abuse gets worse?

GrumpyPanda · 12/07/2024 20:28

Please OP call the police. Your son will be seriously traumatized by the abuse going on in his house.

Maray1967 · 12/07/2024 20:27

Call the police. That is wholly unacceptable and dangerous.

Zanatdy · 12/07/2024 20:26

I personally wouldn’t call the police unless I was scared of a future incident tonight, but I would log it with an online phone or 101 tomorrow. So there is a record. I assume you want to end the relationship (I certainly would be)? Please leave this evening and stay with family or a friend if you’re concerned in anyway

Where is he now?

Jeschara · 12/07/2024 20:23

Call the Police now, you were holding the baby, you have split lip, what if the baby had even hurt.
Please keep safe from this abusive man.

KreedKafer · 12/07/2024 20:23

Call the police and end the relationship. He threw something at your face. It’s never, ever OK to do that in any circumstances. And it’s even worse that he did it in front of your child.

MissUltraViolet · 12/07/2024 20:22

Not only did he end up hurting you, in that moment he was also happy to take the risk of it hitting your child in the face too. None of you are safe.

Call them.
