I am due any time this month. But here is my problem. I dated a guy 12 yrs. ago we started seeing each other again last year. Well after awhile of seeing each other we decided tohave sex. I know huge mistake. any way that one time of sleeping with him i got P.G. ( pregnant) I found out that I was, I told him. He didn't want to believe it, he wanted proof. I called him and told him I had a Dr.'s appt. on this date and time. He never called saying he needed a ride or anything. So the Dr. gave him a letter stating I was P.G. and when it is due. So then he wants lab reports. I just said okay.I have 3 kids already I am raising on my own. So I knowI can handle this one. But here comes the trouble. He says if this child is his he wants full custody. He doesn't work. He has been in and out of the jail house so many times for DUI's and PI's ( drunkness). And even for theft. So I know he can't get custody. So when he is drinking and stuff he comes to my house around 2am waking up my other kids by beating on my windows and doors. I have ask that he not do it. He doesn't listen. The sheriff takes for ever to come to the country. So how can I resolve this matter of being woke up at 2am by him beating on my doors and windows. I am afraid it will only get worse after the baby is born. I have placed NO TRESPASSING signs out to see if that will help. I even had my phone turned off. So what am I to do?????????

dear lady,
Go to your county "women's coalition", or whatever organization in your town provides assistance for domestic violence. Ask for help in obtaining a "Protection from abuse" order. That should alleviate the problem. The first time the guy violates the judge will probably give him a slap on the wrist, but the second time he'll probably go to jail. Good luck to you.

I agree w/ cd. Be firm. He sounds like a true loser. His being unruly at night will impact negatively on your children. Nor, do you need the hassle, esp. w/ a new baby. Good luck w/ your birth and new blessing. tew

Thank you for the advice. I have contacted an attorney. He is looking in on it. So I guess I am geting my ducks in a row.
