[QUOTE="trinityroyal, post: 363475, member: 3907"] Susie, that's simply terrible. And unacceptable. Neither you nor your husband nor your children should be subject to that. Domestic violence resource materials identify [I]preventing you from leaving to get to a place of safety[/I] as one of the criteria to determine whether you're being abused. Honestly, I don't know that a long explanation to your mother will make any difference in the way she views the situation. You do not need to justify your actions to her, nor do you need her permission or "blessing" to take the steps you're taking. You're protecting yourself and your children, and that takes priority over everything else. I'm glad that you're able to distance yourself from it somewhat and see the situation clearly for what it is. And I'm sorry your bro is such an idiot. Hugs. [/QUOTE]
