Hi there guys, I'm a mother of 3 at the age of 27. I'm tired of my husband anymore, it seems that he don't want us, me and my kids.. he always tells me that I'm useless and also he is not a hardworking type of guy..he can't even feed us 3 times a day and I'm sick of this. He always no time for us just to our kids either, he's always in his friends we are always 2nd priority. He love to go outside, party and my god its seems that he don't care. I love my children very much thats why I still stick to this hell marriage. We've been 8 years already and nothing changes, what am I gonna going to do?

A female reader, Sensible Alice Australia +, writes (3 March 2014):

Sensible Alice agony auntI notice that you're from the Philippines, so leaving is probably not as straightforward as it might be in a Western country. Are there jobs where you are? Would you have someone to mind the children if you were able to get work? Where would you live - could you go back to family? How would your husband react if you left - do you fear him becoming violent? Is there someone you could talk to about your predicament, a professional or religious paster?

Ok, what I am going to say next is a long shot. Can you speak to your husband about his behaviour, how it is making you so very unhappy? If he is a religious man, perhaps you could say a prayer together in which you ask God for help with your marriage. You never know; hearing you pour your heart out earnestly for help might touch your husband's heart. Really, really, I wish you the best of luck.

"I love my children very much thats why I still stick to this hell marriage."

If you truly loved your children, then you would be doing whatever you possibly could to make a better life for them instead of allowing them to witness their lazy, uninvolved, verbally abusive sperm donor using their mother as a doormat.

"what am I gonna going to do?"

If you continue to do nothing, then you will be teaching your children that this is normal and expected behavior, and they will in turn pass on the lessons they learned from you as children to your grandchildren, perpetuating the cycle of dysfunction.
