You don't need him to understand, you just need to get away from him. Find a domestic violence shelter in your area and be sure to tell them what he said about custody of your child. That is how my abuser got me to stay for so long... He always held the threat of stealing my kids away over me. In the end, his family did end up stealing them away because I failed to protect myself (and thus, them) from his abuse. We had to agree on a family member or they had to go to a foster home. In retrospect, i should have chosen the foster, but i did not want that for my kids. This is not a healthy relationship for you to be in. He will only make you sicker. You do not need him. There is help available. Mentally abusing someone who is mentally disabled is beyond reprehensible!
