Hi Glenda, thanks for the response. I also came from a divorced family and I am certain that fact plays into my thought processes. Divorce is a terrible and painful thing for kids to go through. My children are the main reason I have stayed this long. I will continue to stay knowing, as others have told me, that I can choose to leave at a later time if I wish. Perhaps in the meantime, either God or my Sensei will teach me how to forgive this kind of betrayal.
