Mom wonders how to leave abusive husband who is now hitting the kids.
So the two things that he always wanted in life, control and pleasing his parents, are not to be. Well, we do fight occassionally about his family trying to come between us, mostly because he lets them, but he has always believed them over me, put me down, been VERY critical, and almost verbally abused me at any occassion, to try to save face for the fact that his family has done some terrible, and unfair things to us. Then he sent him to his room but followed him and gave him a leg bruise, and a blackened eye. I was right there and could not believe my eyes. It was over something very small, and after asking our son why he did it, my husband got so enraged that he would not even let the child explain.
