the way I got out

Quote From: sunshine80

I am sending you this happy face to hopefully brighten your day a little bit.  It is truly terrible that the courts allow him to trivialize these children in order to get back at you.  It is also too bad about the impoverishment of women who do get out of these horrid situations.  Shame on us, because what does that say for us, as a society.  I am sure if these men were reduced to financial ruin were they to get out a marriage or become a single parent, there would be a lot less of this abuse going on.  I do truly hope that you will be able to hold your girls again.  I have my children here, but that is only because their father doesn't care about them (or anyone but himself).  I really wish that there was something that I can do, but all that I can offer you and your children are my prayers and friendship. 

Have a Happy Day

I left my children(3) with my controlling husband and got out. It was the only way I could see to do it and keep myself alive. And...each of the children...in time...came back to me. And...appreciate what strength I had. Remember...custody is never final. But...none of my children are controlling because they see that a woman can and will take control of her life. I am remarried now for 19 years. I set RULES and placed my standards awfully HIGH. He knows that if he abused or controlled I would up and leave...and leave as I did the last time...with just the shirt on my back.And glad to have my back(G).
