I am 38 years old. I went to work for 12 hour shift. I came home to find my younger kids gone my older teens alone. My husband had taken them. I went through everything and found this womans name and address. My daughter went there and told him to bring the kids home. He said he fell asleep on his friends couch. My kids did not make it home theyb were gone over 24 hrs. I went there and barged in and took my kids back. He had sex in front of our 7 and 8 year old and proceded to tell me i was a lousy wife.I was not supportive enough. He hates me and my baby. We are ready to lose the house because he has not paid the bills. I changed the locks and got aWAY WITH MINOR BRUISES. My kids are afraid of him. He is dealing drugs and is paranoid and delusional. He moved in with his girlfriend. I am getting a restaining order and trying to figutre out how to get out of this mess.Any input? The tapes are awesome. the cds are wonderful. I have only my kids in my life. His family is standing by me. They want to put him away.They said he is crazy and sick and abusive. I did nothing to deserve this.

c21,
i don't know you but i will tell you what i would do if it was me.. i would get a lawyer..and file for divorce and get child support and custody of the children. i got a divorce on adultery and the kids were grown.. my daughter signed as a witness when i got my divorce papers...and if there is a minister around. please find one to talk to...i am so sorry that you have to go through this. i am glad that you have the program...take care and know that my thoughts and prayers are with you. GOD BLESS....hope this helped you a little bit.. thanks ...

i would get a restraing order, and if he hasnt paid the bills, id look for another place to live, file abuse charges against him, and get the heck out of dodge!!! No one deserves abuse, and you and your children are being abused.If you dont have enough money for a lawyer, try legal aid, they will represent you for free. But, stay away from him and keep your children away from him,, I pray for you and your children, take care Nelly

OmG that is so terrible, I am so sorry that you are going thru this and being pregnant at the same time. He obviously has some serious issues, and needs to be locked up and brought back to reality. I would file the complaints with your police office and demand for sole custody, not tot mention drugs, your kids don't deserve that and even if you were not supportive of him, it gives him no right whatsoever to do what he has done nad put your kids in the middle!
Don't ever be afraid to take action, becasue you don't want to have regrets, god forbid if he did worse that you didn't take action.
Hang in tehre and talk to someone! SOON!
