Updates....many have asked
Well we are doing great but last night husband decided to scream at me on the phone when I asked him when he would return pictures he had taken of me and my deceased father. and he said that he wants to see his son and so I told him that if he wants to see his son he will have to be nice and stop acting like this at that time he asked me if I thought I was F***ing Judge Judy.....lol.... Well he has not asked anything like can I see Joseph this weekend nothing or can we set something up. But you know what I had been letting Joseph call him every night but not now until I speak with my lawyer. I have not recieved any help from him nor did he pay the car insurance that was due last week. But you know what I did not react to him other than setting him straight and telling him he will play by rules. or he will not see his son until the courts say I have to. He just wanted to control me and he found out that it will not work that way anymore. Anyways I have to run to work and I will check in later. I am still holding strong and as for Angel she is doing great. and Joseph is said to be alot more calmer. We will see what today brings.
Crystal I'm glad to hear you are standing strong through all this and not letting him control you anymore. It sounds like you are handling things very well and the kids are doing better since the split. Continue to be strong and stick to your guns, you and your children are worth it and deserve better. Thanks for the update. Keeping you in my prayers! {{{hugs}}}
I'm glad to hear your standing up for yourself and your kiddos. Keep it up! Your doing great. My mom went through similar situations during her divorce. I was 14 at the time and remember how thankful I was that she stayed level headed, even when dad was way over the top angry and scary.
Great job!

Crystal-- Hey hope u remember me. You look fabulous by the way. You def. do not have to put up with any of his behavior. He wants you to believe that he can control you, but as you have shown him he can not. If you are interested you can see about Outreach services free of charge... support groups and free weekly counseling sessions for domestic violence victims.
DV is not only -- physical or sexual abuse but also emotional and verbal. If you want any info please let me know.
--Empowerment advocacy believes that battering is NOT something that happens to a person because of (her) characteristics, family background, pyschological profile, family of origin, dysfunction, or because of an unconscious search for a certain "type" of relationship. Battering can happen to anyone who has the misfortune to become involved with a person who wants POWER and CONTROL enough to be violent to get it.
I don't know what you have been through but I can tell you that there is another way to live. YOu derserve every piece of happiness!
Hey you! I know it's been awhile since I've been on the board, and gosh I am sooo sorry you are having to go through this! I'm with everyone else when they say to stay strong. My stepdad used everything he could reach to spank us with when I was younger. I vowed never to touch my kids in anger because of this. The sad thing is that my sister didn't get it and continue to hits her kids. I think that your leaving him is a good thing because it shows your kids that it isn't right under ANY cir****tances.
Keep in touch!
