Changed my mind about leaving my husband

My sister just left her husband of eight years who was beating on her, she has a older daughter from another man and three boys from her husband. When I went to visit her I saw her poor living arrangements, and how she has changed dramatically for the worst since she has left him. Cursing her children, neglecting them, living in a dirty run down neighborhood and etc. If this is what will happen if my kids and I leave my husband, I rather stay with him unhappily married for the safety of my children.

I can understand you are scared the same thing might happen to you as to your sister. But don't you think it is very unfair towards your husband?

Yeah well he somewhat knows that I am unhappy with him. But we tey to make it work for the children, and I want to leave but sing my sister live like that and being so vulnerable and makes me want to stay for other reasons to make my children have a better life, but is it so good even though we argue all the time?
