[QUOTE="ck1, post: 71826, member: 3767"] husband and I have been married about 4 1/2 years. difficult child is mine and two easy child's are ours. husband and I NEVER argue, except, when there's issues regarding difficult child. He has threatened to leave me many many times and I've said go ahead. I don't want to raise my kids alone but I've done it before and I can do it again. He hasn't left and now we're finally on the same page regarding how to work together to help difficult child. I've worked very hard to teach husband about difficult child's diagnosis's. Also, I insisted that husband went to counseling to deal with his issues. He did go and was also referred to a psychiatrist for medication. Since then, he's been a different man!! That was about seven months ago. He hasn't lost his temper since and he's been tested! I would choose my kids first. However, staying married is best for your kids, unless you are constantly fighting. Counseling may be needed for the whole family. Maybe your husband needs to be educated about difficult child's problems? When difficult child was younger and husband refuse to believe in any of the rx's, I would choose difficult child. Now that husband and I are more on the same page and difficult child is 16, I would think more about choosing husband because it may be getting close to time to detach from difficult child and I have my little ones who need a daddy. I'm sorry you may be facing having to make this choice. I pray you're able to choose to keep your family together, but husband has to get on the same page and do what's right for all of you, not just himself. [/QUOTE]
