Torn between what i should do. Please dont respond if you are going to be negative or judging.

Im asking for someone to give him their advice respectfully on my situation.

I got with a man for a month. Ended up having sex and now I am 6 months pregnant. In my first month of pregnancy, things with the relationship got really bad. He was violent. Broke things in my house. Attempted to steal some items. Police was called, he ran off. No report made.

I tried to give him a few chances to show he was a better man than that. Well he never did.

I ended up getting a protection order because he would show up to my work and house uninvited and was bothersome.

He has contacted me twice knowing I have the protection order.

The first time I decided to take no action and let his friend know once more and it will be reported to the courts.

Well we are at that point now.

And I know what I should do.

But somewhere deep in me knows hey this is his child too and shouldnt he have rights too?

Then I think...

If I put him in jail what prevents him from doing something worse or something?

My mind is a mess. Im so stressed out. I just wanna cry. Im so torn up. Hes never showed me he is a good man and has threatened me before.

Im just asking you this. If you were me, what would you do. I literally dont know what to do and im so hurt.

My friend told me im being a bad person because he is the father and should be able to see his baby and etc . Im just so sad
