Parents, the people that we look up to, and that are supposed to be smart and rational, are sometimes anything but. Don't let them (or anyone else) pressure you into an abusive relationship, even if for the sake of your child - a violent drunk is not fit to be a father anyways.

I am going through the exact same thing! But I've been with the guy who saved mine and my sons life for over a year, he was there for my sons birth and has protected us since the day we met, but my mother seems to think I should be with the crack head that tried to kill me when I was almost 6 months pregnant ?? parents are great

I understand it'll be difficult but that appears to be another relationship you should stop.

You stayed with your abusive partner long enough to have a child with him and hoped you'd live happily ever after?

I have a solution. Find some rugged looking crackheads, pay them like 100 bucks and tell them to get rid of your ex. Crackheads will do anything for some cash. This of course is a joke but if you use it, I had no legal part for accountability.

**** your parents.

I'd say you need a new set of parents

OP, there is a difference between dad's and sperm donors. obviously your parents don't realize this...so make them realize it!

I haven't spoken to my parents in 8-months. My mother was physically, mentally, and emotionally abusive. When I saw her doing it to my younger sister, I intervened. Her and my stepdad told me that I should leave it alone because that's in the past and I should get over it. Moral of the story: Your parents won't stop doing what they are doing to you. You have to make the change. Sometimes you just have to stop answering their phone calls.

I'd move away from them, if possible
