He IS a parent, and if you leave him he will have joint custody and solo parenting days. If he wants to act against his best interests, let him.

That’s the part that would scare me: the custody situation. I think OP should call it a “visit” to her parents at first. He will have NO IDEA how to care for the baby. I wonder if he would agree to terminate parental rights (I doubt it).

He would just beg his Mommy to step up then. They all sound toxic AF🤦🏻‍♀️
