No, he cannot. No matter what he threatens you with, you cannot lose your child if you are taking proper care of yourself. If you're staying in bed all day, the house is dirty, the kids aren't fed and bathed, etc, then yes. You may have some aggravation as a result of it, but don't be embarrassed. The courts are more concerned with how you respond to a problem versus having one such as PTSD in the first place. I hope this helps.
