Hi im new on here just really need some advice please. Ive been with my partner for five long years, we have a three year old but ive finally had enough and need to get out. For five years hes hit me, beat me up, threatened to kill me. It stopped just before xmas when i left for the first time for a few weeks. The violence has stopped bht he still makes my life hell. Its at the point where i either get out or kill myself. I dont want to throw my life away and love my son to much. We live in a council house. Its in my name. He has no rights. But after last time when i tried to get rid of him he promised me if i took everything away from him he would make mylife hell. So my first thought was to run away withmy son and never be found. My son loves his dad well too much and would hate me for taking him away. My partner has always said he will never leave and tells me to. Ive had enough so my plan is to find a private rent house close enough to share custody and for my sons nursery but to sign my house over to partner. Ive read that you can sign over a tenancy in some cases but the partner has to of lived with you but i cant say that he say that he has because we were claiming seperate so he didnt steal all my money and have even more control.so what do i do? I want him to have my council house so i can make a new housing benefit claim somewhere else. Would the council allow this though my reasoning would be so we can share custody half the week each. Would this work its my only hope.
