No such thing as "legal seperation" in VA so what would he file for???
OP, you need to document her actions and make the case that she is a danger to herself, you and your child. If you can document it, then you can walk away and file for a divorce after you have been living apart for 1 year. (no kids is 6 months)
The one year usually starts at the time that one of you move out of the shared residence but in FFX County you can claim that you were 'no longer living as man and wife' even if you still lived in the house with her - this is due to the known cost of living in this area. The stipulation is that you will need a witness to testify that you were in fact not 'living as man and wife'.
Best of luck. Take care of the kid first!
