But even if you withdraw the charges, he can still be prosectuted - by the police themselves.
An ex-partner of mine assaulted me severely, after years of 'smaller incidents'. I rang the police & he was arrested. For reasons I don't want to go into, I did not prosecute - but the police made the prosecution.

I know you want to distance yourself from anything nasty happening to him, but the only result may well be something else nasy happening to you. Police officers are human, if you keep complaining and then withdraw the complaint, they may well take you less seriously in future - why do all that work when they know you don't really mean it - they have enough else to do.
No they won't. Their concern is the welfare of your child. Bad things happen in many people lives for various reasons. They do not take children away willy nilly. At worst they will come to check on you....not to judge you. They might even arrange support if they think it is needed.
You have to remember...SS leave children in households with drug addicts, alcoholics and dysfunctional families. As long as the child is fed, clean and happy they will not take them away. So please don't worry. They see situations a lot worse than yours.
