I am married but cannot leave our young child alone with my husband any longer, as my husband is not a responsible adult. E.g. the few times early on I allowed him to look after our child (while I was also at home, but in another part of the house), he left him alone in the pool area (at 18 months old) while he went into the garage, strapped into his seat in the car with no windows or doors open (twice), and let him wander out onto the street alone from the yard (aged two, twice) while my husband went to the bathroom / tinkered in the shed / etc. All times I wasn't far away and was able to get to him before anything horrible happened.
My husband is angry that I won't leave our child alone with him, and has said that if we were to get a separation or get a divorce, I would have to leave our child alone with him, so I may as well do it now.
Is that true? Even with my husband's past record being "responsible" for my child, could I be forced to allow my husband to take our son into his "care", with me not present?
