Why am I being punished?

So after years of struggling to make a relationship work, one child and the loss of another, my child's father left me. I was ready to continue to make it work & he even suggested couples counceling, which he later retracted. Now I'm in a terrible place because he wants visits with our daughter, but I can't bare to be separate from her. Especially after the loss of my last baby, I'm in constant fear that something will happen to her and I won't be there. Why is it that he gets to selfishly walk away and I'm punished by having to lose time with my child?

    I'm so sorry you're hurting.  I wish I had some advice, but my ex walked out and is only allowed to see DD if it's supervised by me and my BF.  He also hasn't bothered to come around since last January.

    I'm sorry you're going through this. I am asking for full custody of my son in my divorce as my ex isn't fit to parent especially unsupervised, his lifestyle choices drugs etc make it not safe for my son. It also upsets me that he gets to do whatever he likes while I have no choice but to yet again be the responsible one, even though it is better for my son this way. Being the only "bad guy" gets hard for me sometimes. Sending good thoughts your way.

    Sorry you're going through a tough time.  Just an FYI to PP, though.  Full custody does not mean no visitation.  Just wanted to clarify that.
