Basically he broke the cycle by not becoming abusive to his own children...part of why he disappeared was because at one point he was afraid of what he might do...he felt so broken...of course I knew he would never hurt his children in any way...
He had a few bouts with alcohol...nothing too serious...it was after he left that he developed his alcohol addiction...that was the darkest time of his life since getting away from the abusers....
chicki...how do youknow what the child abuse consisted of with your H...I thought I knew until my H actually told me just recently what he had been through...we had been together since we were teens...yet he couldn't trust me to tell me the things that happened...he had never told anyone of the horrors...he held it in all those years until things just exploded...
