I don't believe he ever would, but if I see him getting frustrated, I tell him to go take a break, so he probably wouldn't ever had the chance even if he was capable. I don't usually leave them home when I go out.

It's crossed my mind. But not because I think he's capable of it, but because I worry too much. To be honest, he handles LO crying better than I do. He's not quite as sleep deprived as I am so I get frustrated easily.
Hell, I've worried about ME snapping and hurting my LO one day. I'd never in a million years actually do it, I'm not a violent person, but I'm stuck on the "what if". Like what if SO or I drinks too much and drops the baby, etc etc. I'm so terrified of LO getting hurt I've thought about all the ways it could happen.
Doesn't help that our national newspaper is FULL of articles about kids being beaten to death by their parents/step parents. There's at least one article a day about a new child abuse case or trial. It's freaking sad
Being a parent is scary lol
