What are the chances of my ex boyfriend getting joint custody of our (unborn) baby if he assaulted me?

It is far too soon to make a decision of getting back together just because he's been "clean" & went thru rehab. I'm a 20+ yr. Sober alcoholic.

I worked AA as tho my life depended on it as it did! In AA they teach you should NOT make any serious decisions until you've been sober 2 yrs.! These programs go hand & hand with one another & I dare say the same applies to NA. He has NOT been away from drugs long enuf to be making a decision of that nature at this stage of the game.

It's far too soon to have something/anything trigger a relapse & he'll be rite back where he started from. Just tell him it's too soon to be considering a relationship at this point in time, to work the program instead & get a good handle on his life...the best to you...:).

In the end that answer will have to be your own. But here are my 2 cents. If he says that he has been seeing a Dr. and getting treatment, then I think you should do some homework of your own.

Meet with his Dr. and get their advice. Chances are there are also support networks in your area. I personally think that much should be done to try and keep a family together.

However, if he has not really been getting help, you are not likely to be able to change his behaviour on your own. Wishing you the best of luck.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
