Think of it like this, Your happiness and well being alone is important however when children are affected by the one who is supposed to make life easier and safer it's a serious issue. You shouldn't feel anything but relieved (of course after you go through the grieving process yourself) You made a positive decision to make a better life for your children and yourself. I was in a bad relationship for 10 years that has affected my children and it took me a long time to leave and I'm grateful that the good Lord gave me the strength to get away. Keep your head up, Your a great mom and u did the right thing. There is never need for remorse for an unhealthy minded person that you choose to remove from your world. It may be a tough road ahead but you will make it through with the love from your children and the love that you have for then and yourself. Stay strong and best of luck to you on your journey to a better life |
