Seeking advice from fellow parents: I have a nine-month-old daughter with my partner, but I've realized he exhibits misogynistic and narcissistic behavior, often blaming me for his problems. We co-own a house, and he only helps with our daughter for about 20% of the day. I'm hesitant to leave because I fear I'll have no support as a single parent. Living in the UK without family nearby adds to the challenge. I'm wondering when is the best time to transition to single parenthood, considering the difficulties of raising a child alone. Any advice or insights would be greatly appreciated.

My DD was 6 months when I split with ex.
She has always known life to be with mum and dad separate. See dad alternate weekends to start now she goes every Fri and alternate Saturdays. It's normal for her. I wondered if she was older if it would have had more of an effect on her.
I'd say younger is better?
