Long story short, I married my baby's father this year. He is an illegal immigrant. I did it for my son because they say a child with only one parent doesn't adjust well. I was not initially with my husband because I think he is a bully and a chauvinist. But, he loves his son, he has a job (that he's had forever) and I want my son to have his father. So I married him. I know now it was a mistake. I am afraid of him. I believe he would harm me given the chance. I don't believe he would harm my son, but I am terrified - daily - that he will run off with my son on a whim. He has a temper. If he were the only thing I feared, I would have divorced him and gotten a restraining order. But, I am scared that he might do something drastic or worse, his friends might in "his defense". I see only two options. Run away with my child, leaving my home, my job, and everything I know (I will do it for my son if I have to) or somehow get him deported. But, if he knows . . . if he finds out I did it, his friends will find me. And I heard I could go to jail for marrying him in the first place. Please help me, Officers. I do not want to lose my entire life, but I WILL NOT lose my child. I made a mistake. I thought I was doing what was right. Now I don't know what to do.
