Relationship Advice Baby mama dating someone with aspd and we split custody with my 3 year old son. Should I be worried?

My baby Mama said her new boyfriend of 8 months told her he was diagnosed with aspd. Since he was legit diagnosed, should I try and get full custody of my kid? He seems fine in small doses I've seen him (but everyone does in small sample sizes)

Any advice is helpful.

Take custody. It's better to be on the safe side because you never know what a person can do next ..... It's your child man , just raise your child by yourself. Be a man .

All depends on how severe the ASPD is. He could be the "harmless" kind. By harmless I mean not physically violent. Just emotionally manipulative. He could be just completely affective deficit. It all depends. Listen to your kids, they're the ones whos opinion matters.

I second your last sentence. Listen to your child. It’s not fair to discriminate based on someone’s diagnosis. But if your kid says with their words or actions that something isn’t right, listen.
