Hi, I am a foreigner married to a Brazilian for 5 years now.Throughout this marriage,i can say that I am living with an abusive husband.I really want to leave him but my concern is our 20-month old child,he does not want me to bring him with me,he even threatened to kill me if I do that. By the way,he is a marijuana addict(smokes 7 to 10 times a day),everytime he runs out of it,he starts to get irritable and furious,he doesn't care if his child is there looking at him.I really want to get out of this marriage because I want to save my child,i don't want him to grow with this kind of environment.But he does not allow me to bring him.I really don't know what to do,can somebody with some knowledge about legalities concerning the custody of the child give me some advice?
