Go to I Kept The Baby

- Go to He is taking me to court
This is a difficult thing...
You are about to embark on a very difficult road. You are the only one to make this easy or hard. I have been in a similar situation, my oldest sons' father left when I was 3 months pregnant, said he changed his mind. I tried to talk to him a few times while I was pregnant to no avail, I waited until Jon was 6 weeks old, when I was strong enough to handle his response. I was glad I waited, he answered and I said simply, "I was wondering if you would like to see your son." He hung up.
So, having said that, it was me that he didn't want to deal with, not the baby and had I been more mature myself in this situation I think he would have been a good father. My hurt feelings may have kept my son from knowing his father.
My best to you,

This guy sounds bi-polar
I wouldn't want him taking my kid anywhere by himself

Probably the type who only wants what he cannot have.
Too bad the court is involved or I'd say act as if you can't wait to drop off the kid and get some freedom... good luck to you.

Don't fight the visitation rights...
Even though he was a jerk, don't fight this now. I would only make sure that he is finacially responsible too. Fight for help but don't stop him from seeing his child. This is advice from a child who's Dad made mistakes in the beginning but when he changed, my Mom refused. She became so bitter that it still causes problems 38yrs later. Don't become bitter...It will eat you alive.
