My 14 month old dd had a fall today. She is ok. Could have been bad though. She fell backwards down concrete stairs outside-about 4 foot drop. She has only a couple of bumps and a graze. We have had her checked out at hospital.
My ex p and I were outside. I was hanging washing up and unable to see them. He was supposed to be playing with her-I left them together on the grass away from the steps. I warned him not to let her near those steps. I heard him scream No and came running to find her in the bottom of the stairwell. So frightening. But she is ok thank god.
Am I unreasonable to see this as beyond a mistake? He said he wasn't watching just for a minute?! That is all it takes. He got really angry and abusive with me on the way back from the hospital when I couldn't believe how he let that happen. I feel like I shouldn't leave him alone with her again. He has never really looked after her alone for long before anyway as I am unsure he is capable. He has Bipolar and is untreated and often has hangovers and smokes cannabis ( sometimes?! ). He is now sending me emails and texts how sorry he is and how bad he feels and how he wants to be together. I just don't know how to deal with him.
