my son's paternal family is extremely toxic & dysfunctional/detrimental

im 5 months postpartum & I've been trying to break up with my boyfriend since before i got pregnant & every time i broke up with him whether it was at his house & i left he would literally follow me home while i was in my uber & make it to my house before i would get there after refusing to take me back & blaming me for getting angry & yelling at him when he was my ride to his house and refusing to take me home even more, due to me being angry since i was "angry for no reason". he has refused to take me home while being at his house on days i have had to work while being unemployed himself up until now. he has sat in my driveway countless amounts of times for hours upon end even after i refused to let him in with the longest time being 6 hours straight. he has came to my job with the company vest on as if he was an employee and found me in the break room after i blocked him. i haven't wanted to be with him for a long time but i don't want to end up with joint custody of my son. he has weird family members that says thing like "if you weren't my niece id fuck you". his mom is also married to someone who is an alcoholic and has had the police called on him because he punched her in the face and had blood dripping down her face. she had also begun following me on my social media accounts after i blocked her number. i currently have his sister blocked because she added me to a group chat demanding that i give her back my son's outfit she got him as a gift because i didn't tell her thankyou for it. my son lives with me & we visit his side of the family sometimes because i don't to end up in court because of never going over there. my son's dad barely going to any of his doctor's appointments when he has many due to having a feeding disability, & being born with bilateral cleft lip & palate. just recently there was an altercation at his mom's house where his mom's husband & his youngest brother were about to shoot each other & after all this that goes on he still begs me to come with him over there with our son so be can visit his family. i don't see how someone can be so desensitized to these things especially being a parent...
