    It is quite unfortunate that you are tied down by laws which were formulated for the welfare of people. I do not the possibilities of settling down in the same country for you.

    Also is it so difficult for you to complain against your husband, after all it is he who has victimised and tortured you, maybe the laws of your country are in favor of men. If that is so then I fully agree with your course of action. All I can do is offer my sincere prayers for you and your child. may the lord bless your son and yourself and show light so that you can breath easy and live in peace.

    you're right, it's partly my fault for letting this happen... and if I could change it I would.



    although i did try to leave before. Obviously, he told some bogus story to the cops who weren't going to let me take my son w me... and convinced me to stay back then. He'll do pretty much anything and that's why I currently chose to stay. He's that manipulative and sly. He has power over me until my son becomes independent. After that, I'll be able to go knowing that my son isn't forced to deal with his father's issues. I plan on giving him all the tools he needs to not fall for his father's emotional blackmail and other issues.



    I'm not leaving because my son will be stuck on this side of the border while I'll be stuck on the other (international laws suck at this point) and he'll have to deal with the negativity of my in-laws and with his father's issues... and he shouldn't have to. he should be a kid.



    and yes, it is partly my fault for letting love blind me and allowing this man to do this to us. I'm very much aware of that on a daily basis. But I can't go back and change that or I would.



    Thank you for your post.

    Your LOVE has taken you for a royal ride, but you are also at fault putting up with all the pain and humiliation (sorry if i hurt you). What is the purpose of living with such a sadist and just think of the effect that it will have on your Son who must be of a very impressionable age. You must live independently and nourish your child in an atmosphere filled with Love and Understanding which will make him a thorough Gentleman and you will be Proud of him.

      no not a very impressionable age. sometimes though you have to chose someone else over yourself, in this case my son, who doesn't need to be stuck dealing with his father's behaviors. if i go, that is what he faces. yes i am at fault for staying, some of it is fear, some of it is knowledge of what will happen when i walk out the door for good. at this point if i leave,I have an entire family who will fight me and keep me from making sure my son is raised in love and away from his father's behaviors. when i have no one to back me, no job, no place to live who do you think will win that battle? They will. i will not be the only one losing out then, my son will. There would be no one left to raise him right or show him that the good of this world is still worth holding on to.

      many wanted to know why i stay, that is why i stay. when he turns 18 there will be questions about his even being able to be independent since he has special needs. But hopefully they will not know this and leave him to make his own choices or if we're lucky the fact that he has high functioning special needs will not be an issue as to his being free of them making his decisions for him and then he won't have to deal with it if he doesn't want to.

      they certainly won't be able to argue if he then choses to come with me and leave the drama behind.
