What do I do?

My baby's father was in seeing him and he told him "better stop your greetin or I'll gee you something to greet about". I'm in shock and angry because I never said anything there and then I just went over to comfort baby to save arguments escalating and he said this just as he was leaving. He's 9 months old and wasn't doing anything wrong by crying, he was just upset and needed a cuddle etc which his father never seems to be good at understanding. To me this is unacceptable

What does greet mean?

Clangus00 · 04/10/2019 14:23

Greet means crying.
It’s usually just an idle threat. Something parents say in slight frustration. Do you really think he would harm his son? If so, tell him to go to court for proper contact.

Yes it means crying

Do you think he would harm the baby? Do you live together or does he visit? I'd never leave them alone together after that.

@Skippii , we don't live together and never have. To be honest I'm not actually sure now, especially if he can react like that after baby only crying for a min with him. He usually says that's enough but went further this time. Now I don't know how he'd react after relentless crying e.g baby teething etc At night. Which he has never had to because he's never been here for any of that.
