Legal Question in Family Law in Virginia

What are my options?

Was married to a man that was and is an alcoholic, addiction to video games, physically and mentally abusive to me. I took the abuse and would send my son to his room if his father was going to aim at him. So our child was never abused. I never told anyone of the abuse until I was leaving out of fear of what he would do. When I did leave he did not fight me on me having full custody due to he didnt want to be tied down with certain visitations. He went months without any contact or visitation with our child. Then would see him a couple times exposing him to sex, porn, adult movies, adult video games, people who are doing drugs with children around, and drinking with our child in his care. He would keep our child up and send home dirty, hungry. Our child is in therapy for some of the things he has been exposed to and dealing with a father that comes and goes. His father has had no contact for 5months now and showed up tonight trying to get visitations again. The last time he requested to see our child was five months ago and he asked to have him a couple hours where I knew was heavy drinking. I told him he was not to drink with our child in his care. He said if he couldnt drink he didnt want him. I want to make it to where he either has supervised visits or none at all. I dont have any proof really of all the bad things he has done. I dont want him to endanger our child. I have to stress and worry everytime he is with him. I have to pay for more therapy for our child when he exposes him to bad things at such a young age.
