Thinking of leaving husband

Tonight my child and husband/ kids dad came to logger heads. She refused to tidy toys and then when she did she threw them into the basket. Witching hour and tiredness I think. If I had have been in the room I'd have had words and she would have had to do it. I was bathing our other little one. All I could hear was daughter screaming and crying and him saying do it as in tidy up. I know she hit him. I know she shouldn't have but she's a kid and they make mistakes. She was crying so much when she came upstairs she wouldn't calm down and said her eye was sore and that he put his hand hard in her face, covering her mouth and pushing her face away. She was hysterical about this and side of her eye was Mildly red. I asked if he'd done this and he said yes he pushed her away and that she'd hit him. She's tiny. He's a big guy and an adult. I am speechless I can't believe he'd do this. I'm so angry. He is the parent and should be able to deal with a melt down. I don't think there is any excuse for this. I stayed with her and cuddled her until she went to sleep. I'm not sure where to go from here. This is the first time something like this has happened and that I've seen her like this. I'm seriously thinking of ending things. I'm not sure what to do.

This is not accepted BUT .Your child has hit him and he pushed her away .
He is a parent and should be able to deal with a melt down .( That's the ideal world we are taking about not the real one.)
What I see your hubby didn't intended to hit the child in the first instance and I think you should talk in detail about it .
Also answer the questions like Does it often happen that he hits kids ?Does he losses his temper often when around them ?
I think before making such a decision try to find out about these questions and make an informed decision

Also tell your hubby that he is quite lucky to go away with this since no damage has been done .Otherwise he would have been in jail for it
