[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 94203, member: 1550"] I decided to read all the posts before putting in my two cents. I'm also concerned that your husband doesn't "get" your son. As one with a disability himself, I would think he'd have compassion. If he emotionally abuses your son in any way due to his disability (and, yes, that can include bad behavior) then I would leave sooner rather than later. You know husband better than us. Is he rigid or flexible--willing to learn and grow? I see he's a lot older than you. THat doesn't need to be a problem, but sometimes the older you get, the more rigid you are (not everyone, of course). in my opinion the child has to come first. Did he get to know your son well before he married you? Six months isn't a very long engagement. Like the others, I want to be supportative and try to help so I also echo marriage counseling or family counseling, which includes your child. If he refuses it, well, that says TONS about him...(((hugs))) [/QUOTE]
