I want to leave, but am afraid
My husband has emotionally abused me since we were married. We will fight, which is always started by him (my fault ALWAYS), followed by days or weeks of silent treatment, then things are suddenly fine. I'm over it. He's selfish, uncaring & obviously doesn't love me. I know I deserve better. However, I am a stay-at-home mom to our child and am terrified that he would get custody of our child as I (at least right now) could nf support him. I'm happy to get a job, but am just so fearful that I'll lose my child. I remember one time he told me, "you have a pretty sweet deal here, me paying for everything." What normally happens in these cases?
