You have got to stop blaming yourself, this man is controlling you by his behaviour, you know this is a bad situation and you know it is wrong.

you need to think about the positive of being on your own you think you won't be able to cope but your wrong i am talking from experience i have been where you are and i went back to him time and time again because he is the father of my child and i thought i loved him, but it got worse and worse and i had to get out, i was like you i was dependent on him and he controlled me, i had no friends and i nearly lost my family through it, but now im away from him i have loads of friends and i feel closer to my family i get to have a social life and nice times because people will support you when you make the break from him. you will find who you are again and be a good mum as you are removing a bad infulence from your childs life believe me you can do it, you don't need to live in fear once that fear goes you will see how strong you are!

Pack up, get your son, and get out. they never stop....I know. don't make excuses for him either, he should know hurting a woman is wrong. and your son will catch on to this behavior, and end up beating women too. if you can't do it for yourself, do it for your son. break the cycle. it won't stop if you don't....I bet my life on it...because I ALMOST LOST IT AT THE HANDS OF AN ANGRY MAN
