I am staying with my parents and my father is almost as abusive as my soon to be ex husband and my mom is in her own way. Well my father got into a fight with my mother for being gone so long (3 hours) running errands becuase we do not have the truck during the week. Well he almost burned me with his cigar and then picked up a book and almost threw it at my mom. He called me many many mean names and told me to go back to my ex. I had to twist his arm to prevent him from burning me then he just spit and blew in my face. Lovely life I have right now. I am under so much streess. I can not get a job , but I have my brother and sister inlaw who would love for me to move out of state with them, butttt I can not due to the divorce and I do not know if I will have restrictions on the geographical arena. Please pray that I will be able to move out of state with them.....I need to get out of this situation. It is not good for me now MY 5 YEAR old son.

I'm really sorry CatEyes. I will pray for you and your son. So sad. Here you're trying to make a better life for you and your son only to be in another abusive situation. Maybe your mom will see your strength and draw on you to get out too and go with you. If not then you get out as soon as you find out that you can, I know you will but I will be praying for you. Be strong and keep faith. We're all rooting for you.

I wish I could get you up here CatEyes Actually, you could move out of state - because so far he hasn't put any restriction on you or you would be served a notice. Keep an eye on the public notices in the paper since he'll probably claim he doesn't know where you are. Get an attorney - even a free one & file first then you can put the restictions on him!

I do have one and she is trying to put in the decree that I have the right to leave state. I just hope and pray it goes through.

Oh My dayz..this is aweful and yes, the quicker you can move out of that hell..the better..for you and your son..You don't want your son either to grow up thinking that abusive behaviour is normal and he end up being just like your dad..He wilol end up a miserable git on his own if he continues like that. I will certainly pray for you and once you get settled I will try to help you get on your feet as best I can..If you need anything please please pm me and I will do my best to help in what way I can. My thoughts and parayers are with you..I was having a crap weekend also so couldn't come on to Mylot..Hugz from me and I am always around if you need me..

I am so sorry to hear about that. I wish life is a little better for you now. I know how it is to have a very abusive parents. The sooner you move a way from them, the better. I hope you are not planning on moving back with your ex. From what you've described, he doesn't sound like a good man and I don't think he'll ever change. Always, think of your life and a life of your son. They are very precious to be wasted away on people that don't deserve you. Stay out of trouble and take good care of you too.
