No! Don't settle. Move on. Yes, people have baggage, but abuse is not baggage...it's a sign of sickness. Do you want your children picking up those abusive traits or worse still, do want them to become his victims as well?

Your heart will heal. You deserve better.

Blue_Angel0316 agony auntYou need to break it off completely. You and your children could be in danger. The violence and abuse will forever be etched in the minds of the young ones and can lead to all sorts of problems later on in their lives. If you feel the need, change the number to prevent him from contacting you. However protect yourself as he could decide to retaliate if he is angered by your actions.

Never settle for anyone! If you aren't getting the emotional and moral support of the man you are with, you are shortchanging YOURSELF and YOUR CHILDREN. After trying for 3 years and things have increasinly worsened,chances are they WILL NOT get better.

Try to put this all behind you and seek professional help if needed so you and your children can start rebuilding your lives.........one day at a time.

I'M ONLY HUMAN.......I'M JUST A WOMAN.......

ONE DAY AT A TIME SWEET JESUS..........THAT'S ALL THAT I'M ASKING OF YOU.....SHOW ME THE STAIRWAY THAT I HAVE TO CLIMBE AND FOR MY SAKE TEACH ME TO TAKE ONE DAY AT AT TIME.

Just a few words from a very Powerful song. ONE DAY AT A TIME......God is with you and He WILL SHOW you the way...

God Bless,

Blue_Angel
