I don’t know if you can e-mail me privately…I need some help and quickly. I’ve read through a lot of replies and I know I need to get me and my kids out of a very quickly deteriorating situation, but he has it where I CAN’T get my kids. We live in his hometown where everyone thinks he’s great and I’m a psycho recluse that hides in my house. He has flat told me (with those horrible dead eyes) that I wouldn’t get my kids…so I’ve stayed. Last night was a whole new level of horrible. He came in about once an hour or so and yanked my blankets of me and harassed me. I have to get out, but how do I take my kids (one is 6, the others are a toddler and a baby). He has me looking like the crazy one. Please, please, contact me directly if you can….I don’t know that I’ll be able to check this site again.
Dear Diane:
I cannot contact you by email and have your husband see my response.
I don’t know where you live and you can’t tell me here, but if there is any physical abuse, you need to contact police immediately. Ask the police for the name of a woman’s shelter. It sounds to me like you need to get out and take your children with you.
Where is your family?
Can you call them?
Would they come and get you?
I am seriously not equipped to deal with the situation that it sounds like you are in.
I hope that when your husband goes to work you can grab the essentials for your children and leave.
Do you have a working cell phone that you call 911 on?
Please contact me again to let me know what is happening.
