My boyfriend's Uncle was convicted of assault and pedophilia and may have killed someone, and was recently released from jail... I DO NOT want him anywhere near our child but my stupid boyfriend along with his idiot parents keep ignoring me and let him hold our 7 month old son whenever he goes to their family gatherings.
I'm getting really pissed off and I don't know if I can even afford a restraining order or if I'd be allowed to file one without physical proof.
At this rate, I don't think I want ANY of them to be allowed near my son. I can't believe the level of neglegence and ignorance from these people!
What can or should I do??

Surely there should already be restraints in place that he cannot be within X amount of space of a child!! I would head to the cop shop and see if they know anything.
Be prepared that this will cause a LOT of tension between you and your boyfriend and his family. But you're doing the right thing!!!
1. He should no longer be your boyfriend if he's ignoring that request!
2. If he was sent to prison for the reasons stated take your child and file for sole custody and a restraining order since your boyfriend is so insistent on having someone like that in your lives.
talk to your boyfriend and find out wtf hes thinking. Does he trust the uncle or feels pressured not to cause a problem in his families delusion?
Yes! People are saying leave him but I know it's not that simple . Talk to him about why he thinks it's ok !? Look up information on grooming and how offenders groom not only their victim but also family and friends around them so. I one believes it's true when the victim speaks up .... if he still doesn't see a problem then you have a serious problem and would be enough to end the relationship . If something happened to your son and child protection got involved you would need to answer why you let your child go there when you knew .... your his mother and if your the only one acting protectively then do just that ! Protect him and do not let that man anywhere near ur son !
Firstly he'd be my ex boyfriend! Secondly I'd be calling child protection, the police and speaking to legal aid ASAP.
