Help!! After 5 years of living with my ex and having a child with him I ended our relationship. Following the breakup he began to harass me whereby it became intolerable and I had to get the police involved. It was only then that I found out that he'd been previously convicted of sexually abusing two 9yr old little girls at the age of 16. I just can't get over the lies and the fact that I've had a child to someone who I now feel I never really knew. My family now know as he's not been allowed to see our daughter unsupervised as he's still deemed a moderate risk. I feel it's a horrible dirty secret that now has to be hidden from our daughter. It's caused me to suffer massively mentally.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated
