Is it legal in the state of NY to pack up and leave your husband with your children? I'm in the same boat you are, living with an abusive drunk with a big mouth. When he feels like paying rent he does. I pay everything else, but he makes believe that's not true. the only way i can get away from him is to leave because he won't leave. I don't want to get caught in a legal trap once I'm out. If it's not legal, I'm in trouble. Thanks

Oh you sound like you need a HUG!<BR>I have been thru similiar with my mom when I was growing up. She is still abusive and cruel when I speak to her. I still want to go back to her sometimes. I understand the feeling. It is hard for other people to understand. My husband thinks I am crazy to even speak to my mom. I cant explain logically why I want to go back sometimes. Perhaps the best explanation is that I still have hope. My mom can be a wonderful person and I still have hope that she will some day act so nice all the time. That is what makes me want to run to her sometimes.<BR>Good luck to you and congratulations on moving out!<BR>Email me if you ever feel like it-<BR>Jessie<P>------------------<BR>No god, no peace; know god, know peace.<BR>

Friend2u2 and others:<BR>Are you ok? I just wanted to check on you. Do what is best for you in your situation. One thing I have discovered is that my Alcoholic will never change. He's been gone for over 6 weeks now, and he is still just as evil as when he left, except he's trying to not drink so much because he wants custody. I have finally gotten it through my head that I am SO MUCH better off without him. Before he was gone, I didn't think I could get through a day without my H at least sleeping here but now I think "what was there to miss"? He did nothing for me and made my life torture. I know that God has a plan for me, and he does for you too. Let Him guide your life and decisions. Turn your alcoholic over to Him. Best of luck to you, and please let us know how you are.<BR>
