Shelly,
Hi! I will pray for you! Honestly, I know exactly what you mean about the fighting, etc. I sometimes don't think people understand the effects it has on children. First of all, and I know it's hard, but don't let the worthless words effect you-ignore them-don't even think about them for a minute....stay strong and focused for your children. God loves you so much and wants you to be happy. |

You are doing the most important job there is, being a mother! It sounds like your stbx is feeling bad about himself and trying to drag you down with him, but don't let him! You'll be out of the situation soon enough. You're in my prayers, hang in there! |

Having family conflict is so hard when you are trying to keep up positive energy and raise your loving children, who will always love you! It can drain your energy and bring you to the point of being dissapointed in yourself. I think it is important to seek advice and help and perhaps counseling. Keep your faith going. You and your children will be alright. Don't be afraid to seek help. I believe God wants you to ask for help since you've written in to this site. You are not alone. We are all part of the mommy club :-) God Bless. |

You need to get out...and NOW. Things will only get worse. You son is not picking on your daughter for no reason. He sees your husband do it to you. He will copy his dads behavior, and I hate to say this, but he is probably not seeing you stand up for yourself either, so hes going to do the same thing. Have you heard of subsidized housing? Look it up, and even if you are not working, you can get in. There may be a waiting list, so you might need to find a place to go untill then. Look around at woman and kids shelters or places that can help you. There are out there. Good luck...stay strong, and keep looking ahead to those brighter days. They will come, but YOU are the one who has to create them! You will be in my prayers! |

Let me tell you, "You are not a bad mother. You care and love those kids like no other mom". He on the other hand is in a rotten space, is disgusted with himself, and it is easier to put the blame on someone else rather than to look at the cause, which is himself and how he is resolving it. The "blame game" is an easy way out for him.
If it gets really bad, call your local women's shelter, and seek housing for you and your children. Some shelters offer childcare. Check out your local resources. If you go to church, seek the marriage counselor.
You are not alone. Many women have traveled in your shoes and overcame abuse. I do believe in God, and if you ask for his help, he will help you. I will keep you in my prayers and thoughts. |
