[quote]"It doesn't matter if there is hope for reform. The damage was already done. The mother here has an obligation to protect her children from abuse, even if it is coming from her husband. If she wants to work on the marriage, fine. But kick the husband out until he gets help. The children shouldn't be subjected to his abuse while they are working on the marriage and his issues with dishing out abuse to innocent children."
Kick the husband out? That's working on the marriage? See how biased these statements are? You completely take the side of the poster and look past any other possible issues.
My response:
Biased? Because it's not what you would do?
Sorry, but the kids need to be protected from psychological abuse. Period. I have seen the damage that that type of abuse does. Saying to kick the husband out is unbiased. It's to protect the children. And he can then decide if he wants to get help for his issues of committing abuse. And work on the marriage or not.
The children are the ones that need to be protected. Even at the expense of the marriage.
You said:
That's GREAT. That's what you're supposed to do. And I've taken the time to explain better a lot of aspects of my situation so that there isn't as much to doubt or wonder about, which is what I'm supposed to do.
My response:
Again, it is only from your side. Your ex may state something completely different.
Even when I tell my story, you are only getting my side.
