[QUOTE="AnnieO, post: 268371, member: 6705"] I am sending super cyber hugs your way. There have been a few times I have been at this point. Last November I was ready to pack husband's things, and the kids' things, and tell him to find a place to live. (I'm not leaving - the mortgage is held by my parents because we couldn't get a traditional one with his X's refusal to pay bills, and I have been paying most of it anyway.) Fortunately for husband and my heart, and I truly believe the kids too, everything finally came out. And things have been better. I still have moments I don't want to go home, but the violence from difficult child 1 has decreased to the point of nonexistence. She and I have had a lot of talks and she knows I won't put up with any more. But listen. Your husband - well, he says he does not feel he has given his all. Well, if that's true - and I believe it is - maybe you guys could stand a vacation. Let him be the dad to difficult child. Let him see what you have been doing. And to do that, you have to go away. Take easy child somewhere it's safe. If husband is truly the one - and he may be - you also will want to find some sort of couples counseling. If you can see his side, and he yours - maybe it can work. Or maybe not. But if it has a chance to work, it might help. That's my take. I'm thinking about you, lots. Don't forget you have us!!!
