Is it bad that I give my ex-husband custody of my 2 year-old daughter?

Get a judge to grant 50 50 custody. I don't see why you would hand over custody when you could share it.

You say it is the only way to separate.....its not! You say he wont leave unless he has her......that is manipulation and there are ways to make him go. If you give him custody you will regret it. Go for 50-50 you can't get any fairer than that.if he doesn't like it....stiff sh*t!

Think carefully before you give in to a complete separation. Most people who are considering divorce or separation think that the relationship can never get better. Too late, and with more experience under their belt, they realize that some issues could have been resolved with counseling, effort, and patience. You are right that children do suffer when their parents argue and fight. Sometimes with divorce, however, the fighting continues, and children continue to suffer, too. Divorce doesn't solve the problems. It just relieves them temporarily. Children need both parents. If it is at all possible, try to work out the issues separating you and your spouse. Your children will suffer much less that way. If you can't work things out, then do everything in your power to have an amicable separation and/or divorce in which the children can see the two of you treating each other fairly and with respect. If your daughter goes to live with your husband, you should still insist on joint custody which would be in her best interest.

Most mothers do what is best for the child in the long run

You need to ask yourself if the situation he will be in, housing, employment, social activities etc are going to be stable for a child.

You also need to realize that you cannot play yo-yo with the child either. If you let him take custody, don't go crying later that you want her. That is not fair.

What about shared custody? Visitation?

I have to wonder about your intentions. Is this more for your own benefit? So you do not have to raise her? selfish reasons?

take this to court and get a legal agreement so that you and your husband share custody of your children.

its no fun growing up without a parent. imagine your daughter in fifteen years from now, asking about her father. what will you tell her? how do you know she wouldnt look him up?

make sure your husband has his fair share in his daughter's life. dont give him full custody, but it's not fair if you have full custody either. and especially since your kids apparently love their father so much, chances are they'll be a lot happier.

take your children's feelings now and in the future into consideration.

hope i helped!! good luck!! :)

I had a broken heart for almost two months. I couldn't eat properly and my life was just going straight to the drain... but as soon as I applied this strategies, my ex came running back to me in a matter of weeks. I can’t even thank you enough for this https://tr.im/AHfQR

Why would you hand over custody when you can share custody. I never heard of such a thing.

what if he turns into a sick-O...?then you would have to live with that for the rest of your life!

keep your daughter safe.......you keep her......men can become twisted.

NO you dont give your daughter up for any reason
