She DOES need a cheerleader
Quote From: martygayleTelling someone to get a backbone is not the answer. If she is putting up with this abuse she has already fallen down too far to fight back. Telling her to get a backbone is just piling on to her feeling of worthlessness. After daily abuse, just getting dressed and brushing your teeth is like climbing Everest. If your own husband doesn't think more of you than that, than surely a boss, teacher, or co-worker will be disappointed in you. You start thinking you are a life wasted. It is easy for everyone to say she needs to leave but this writer is absolutely correct. I too was in an abusive relationship. You get so beaten down, you do believe the abuser. You cannot see the situation clearly when you are in it. I pray she is able to step back and evaluate her options. I hope she is able to leave him, and I hope someone intervenes and determines him to be a child abuser. i hope someone supervises his visits with the children. He certainly does not need any custody rights. Good luck to Karen.
