Well I think we are about to be separated. I am activly looking at new places. I am no longer BROKEN TREE but a much better and stronger Tree. I am here only for me and my kids, that's it. My W is stuck in a miserable MLC place and I can not help her anymore. She is lieing to her support group about everything and abusing my kids and me. Things are getting really messed up now. S12 would not get out of bed yesterday morning so W tried to drag him out by his nose, ears and cheek. He said she kicked him in the nuts. There was blood inside his nose. He is really upset and says he hates his Mom. I have a recording of the conversation between them afterwords. The kid had to sleep in my bed due to his fear of his Mom. I have an appointment with my L today.
OMG!! That is completely out of line. If she is treating your kids like that, you need to take them with you when you leave. That is not safe for them. Your leaving is going to make her more angry, and they will be the only ones there for her to take it out on.
How sad, using the kids as her punching bag to get her anger out. Hope all goes well with the L, in the meantime make sure s12 avoids angry W by getting him up yourself if he isn't a morn person and has a hard time. Prayers your way))))))
Be not afraid...I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten Joel2
30something 2kids survivor of S, MLC, A, D I have peace in my heart, at last.
BT, you need to sit down with W and say that this behaviour is completely unacceptable and if it happens again you WILL call the police or that you will take the children and leave. End of story! I did that with my W one time when I came home and found her slapping my D who was also 12 at the time. My language was not very kind, I said "if you ever touch my D again I will call the police...are you f@cking crazy?" She has not laid a hand on her since. Btw, I think all your reasons for her anger are probably right on, unhappy people do unhappy things. You can't help her so protect yourself and your kids.
I hear ya, BT. I stayed in the cesspool of misery I was living in for years and one of the main reasons was that I couldn't bare the thought of not being able to tuck my babies in each and every night. Our kids are our blessings. Stay the course, Strong Tree!
