Please do not subject yourself to being mistreated just for the sake of the baby. If you were broken up, back together now and things are the same, chances are they will not ever change.

I am not just talking out of one side of my mouth, here. I know from personal experience. My baby's father and I were pressured into marriage. He became an alcoholic, physically and emotionally abused me. First it was just verbal fighting about money, etc. He then started in with the physical abuse. I finally had enough and left when the baby was about 6 months old, because it was affecting her, too.

To this day he is around 33, still drinks, still hits his gf sometimes when drunk, and still does not have the ambition to get a supportive job. He has finally held a job for the last 5 years..As a bartender of all things. But, overall, he is still much the same person. I am just glad that I had the foresight to see he would only hold me back in life, and had the courage to leave when I did.
