Good grief,zz: Greece is a signatory to the European Convention on Human Rights. You do have civil rights in that country regardless of your national status, and these include the rights to life, liberty and personal security!

I once joked about your living in Borat-land, but you do not actually live there. You live in a civilised country that gives you human rights. Get out of danger and throw your self on the authorities. They will protect you and the children.

It will not be ok until you can muster up the strength to remove youself AND your children from this situation. You need to get this documented NOW. AS SC said, go now and have this done while they can be seen.

He already has a pattern of physical abuse as shown through the law suit. Time to get moving on this.

It is very hard to get away from the emotional and physical violence as you feel in a way that you think deserve it. This is what the abuser does to get you to stay and the abuse continues. THIS IS NOT NORMAL AND IT IS NOT OK. GET OUT.

You can do this, you really can. You have more strength than you realize but you must act now. Get your kids and LEAVE NOW.

zz, of course I am not going to tell you that this is going to be OK until you can get out. I doubt that anybody here will tell you that. We all knew that his abuse had not magically gone away and that it would reappear.

I don't know what you can do from your position in a remote part of Greece, but you must do something. You must get away. I cannot believe that the Greek authorities will let a man attack his wife like this and not help her, or let her lose the children.

You have bruises. They must be verified while they can still be seen. Get to a doctor and a police station, with the children. Don't leave your children behind.

I take it you still haven't told them about his affair because you don't want to break their hearts?

How has appeasing your H worked for you so far?

Tell your kids, and get out of there, zz.

Ditto.
Please get out and go to your friends and then to the cops. TODAY!!

Please tell us you did this!?

Have you left yet with your children? I am very concerned for your safety and that of your children.

Likely since his physical assault on you.....he has calmed down, doing the im sorry it will never happen again, etc. Until the next time and it will happen again.

Please update.

Get your friend and go to the authorities together.

please update us ASAP when you are safe.

Dont fall for his upcoming nice act, which will be his follow up to the abuse stage.



What would you do if you were not afraid?
