    I absolutely agree with the above post. It sounds like he has told you what he thinks you want to hear, and you have let him carry on staying.

    I dont know you at all, but from your previous posts on this thread, it does sound like you are desperately unhappy. Why would you want to stay so unhappy. Have a quiet word with his dad, spell out the situation and make it clear to him that you are not prepared to carry on like this, and why you arent prepared to do so.

    Hope you'll be ok x

    Just want to throw in that my ex husband threatened violence if I tried to leave him. I left him anyway, when he was at work, and took all of my worldly possessions with me. He wasn't violent afterwards. He was just a gob!!!!! and a bully. Once he knew I wasn't afraid to the point where he could control me, he lost interest. I was afraid, yes, but I got through it, and you will too.
    I have had many Light Bulb Moments. The trouble is someone keeps turning the bulb off :o

    I wouldn't forewarn a person who may be naturally on his son's side and may not believe the 'other side' to his son and who also has immense power....but I may be being paranoid, old experience informs my position.

    I agree with rachelhen on that point, these things usually backfire.

    Immense power?

    Bobbies aren't above the law, he's not Robocop! He's far more likely to step in to avoid the embarrassment of having his son in cells.
