i really don't know And maybe i put myself in this situation because i was so foolish to believe in him and loving him i never thought he would be such a bad husband and father what a waste of my heart !!!

I don't know what women do in your country. Is there any support? You family? Your friends?
Family counseling? Support groups for single mothers?
Right now, your boy is growing up in a dysfunctional family. Staying in this mess without seeking help, and wanting to change a thing is not helping him, or you.
There is always a way. Research your options.

as i mentioned in middle east things are little different and women not always get her rights..
I'll discuss that with his mother today as i'll move out but keep my baby her at night and pick him up in the afternoon this is the only solution that i can think off

I'm done.. and yes i know it was bad mistake having this child i regret it soon much that's i waited 2 years when we first married and not had a child i was trying for things to settle down for us .. but they didn't not i have to move on and it's too late i know but i love always to think good and see the good in person infront of me so how if that person was my husband it's just me and i can't change it ..

That's just mean. She may have made mistakes with this guy, but it does not mean those bad decisions give the husband any right to put his hands on her. No matter what she did or didn't do, or who he is, NO ONE have that right to commit domestic violence.

This woman here is a victim. She is returning to him because she is trapped emotionally. This is very common for victims of abuse. It's easy to say, "leave him". But to commit staying away from a guy she knew for almost a decade, the man she used to trust, the same guy who is manipulating her emotions to get her to doubt herself ("maybe it's my fault?") and crushed her self confidence, most victims return to their abusive spouses. Physical abuse is painful and those wounds may heal. Emotional abuse is 10x as worse and may scar the victim for life.

OP, seek help from a woman shelter. In order to get away from this, you must talk to an expert who can help you and your child safely get out of there. You have a child in this relationship. He will track you and your child down if you are not careful to cover your tracks. Friends and family helps too.

If you decide to leave, you must NOT look back, no matter what he says or do. Even if he begs for forgiveness, sends you flowers, writes you love letters, etc. Make that decision and follow it through and you can permanently get out.

If you return to him, please understand abuse normally escalates. It will not get better unless there is intervention to convince him to change (he already proved he won't) or you and your baby leaves. Do not rely on his mother. People who beat their spouse usually gave witnessed abuse themselves from their parents.

I agree. Do not rely on his family. They are usually on his side, especially in the middle Eastern culture. It might turn really ugly and dangerous for you if you ask his mother for help and she tells your husband.

If you are getting hit in the face and you don't take your child and leave the situation, you are making an enormous mistake.

What you are describing is not even on the same planet as "rude" and "having no respect."

I doubt his family will help you. It's from them he learned it is OK to be abusive.

Perhaps by being frank about the situation he can help OP have an epiphany?
Syrup and hugs and sympathy is one way it absolutely won't be fixed, that's for sure.

It's hard to offer advice because you are in the middle east. Was this an arranged marriage? Do you have the same rights as the men?

I know the question my sound ignorant, and maybe it is. I just think there is a chance that your arrangement and options may not be the same as those on the board.

OP,

Where are you from exactly?

Are you from Lebanon? were you born in a different country and nationality then your husband?

If so take the baby and yourself right now to an embassy and get out.

if, not, make a plan to get out. Think outside the box.
