Don't know what to do

[chlojoe9]

So basically yesterday my baby's father found out I was sleeping with someone a member of his family we have been separated for 3 weeks now he already has a new girlfriend that he left me for so me and my little girl was in bed sleeping and I heard my name being shouted and lots of banging i saw my him and he was so angry he told me to go to the f in door so I went downstairs in a panic and he was smashing on my window I went to the back door to check it was locked and he was and the window screaming and smashing on the glass telling me he's gonna have me beaten up and if I don't open the door so he could smash my face in he's going to throw a brick through the window I told him I'm ringing the police and ran upstairs I could see him walking off booting my car as he went past it the police shortly arrived I was in floods of tears shaking they let him off because their was no previous he has been violent In the past but iv been too scared to report it so I let it go . I know I did wrong by sleeping with the person I did say no at first because it was wrong. Now the police have been the social are getting involved and i really don't know what to do also I found out that he's addicted to drugs so that wouldn't of helped the situation at all because he didn't have a straight head. Can anyone give any advice I don't know what's gonna happen next I'm scared to go to my house and be in my house with my baby

First of all you need to get as much help from services that you can health visitors etc they won’t just take your baby without good reason so unless they see you as an unfit parent then you should be fine. You should work with them on asking for help to possibly get a new place to live and with help towards the dad. Then maybe try and talk to someone neutral from his side of the family who could talk to him and help you both sort this out

Women's aid run a free 24 hour domestic abuse help line 0808 2000 247 and they will be able to offer you help and advice. Please don't worry about calling them as they are very helpful and friendly and will listen to you worried and concerns. Good luck.

Thankyou everyone x

You haven't done anything wrong OP - when you split up you end the relationship so that's it. He has no right to turn up & start making demands of you - especially in the way he did.
The pp is right just tell SS the truth- that you have separated from baby daddy & you are trying to adjust and you need support with making sure you and your baby are properly protected. I mean you can't have him doing things like that it's too stressful & frightening. They will want to be sure that you are putting things in place & getting advice from women's aid & health visitor. Get on the phone & get advice from them to make sure you're doing everything you can to look after yourself & your baby

As everyone else says you've done nothing wrong, this man has absolutely no say whatsoever over what you do
Let us know how you get on with the domestic abuse helpline...
