I have a 3 year old and 2 older children. Her father was verbally and emotionally abusive towards me. The relationship ended shortly after she was born because of the behaviour. This has caused anxiety and panic attacks.
I have a full time job which I struggle to do emotionally and physically.
After many complaints and no shows he agreed to look after her 2 days a week. Until recently I wasn’t there when he dropped her home and asked him to leave her with my eldest. He drove away and was shouting and swearing down the phone. Forced me to drive miles away to collect her, where he shouted at me for not being home and making her sad. He has said he won’t be in our lives. And that I messed him around.
I worry for her emotionally in the future. If he is out of her life and if he comes back in this unreliable troublesome way.
With covid and uncertain times finding a nursery full time is another worry and financial strain
