[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Your husband sounds very controlling.

The prenup means you’re more financially vulnerable than you would otherwise be. Plus he wants to isolate you from your family so you’re without a support system. He controls the money, he wants to control who you talk to as well.

The fact that you have a contentious relationship with your mom that you admit was abusive is a red flag for your marriage. Statistically, you’re more likely to seek out a partner who’s abusive because that feels familiar and comfortable.

I don’t want to minimize the severity of leaving an infant alone. Of course it’s a given that your mom won’t babysit in the future. But going no contact over this incident is batshit insane.

You’ve truly traded one abuser for another. [/quote]

Not quite. The husband is not controlling or abusive, and OP's mother has been massively unpleasant for years. Her own son has cut her off. She is said to be untreated bipolar.

All this makes for pretty convincing evidence that OP's mother needs to be either cut off or seen solely to provide access to OP's father.
