Thinking about leaving my husband. The only reason I stay is our daughter.
I am only 21 and I have a daughter who is 1. I am married to a man who has been previously married and divorced with a 4 year old son. I can not seem to get over his past. He has always struggled financially because he pay $600 per month in child support. He has not done anything to modify the default divorcée decree in over 2 years. I just don't understand he can not even provide for me and our daughter every month. I get really frustrated because when I need to buy my daughter something she needs he complains about the cost. I am a full time student and I make $800 a month. My husband used to have a job making $20.00 per hour until he quit to go to school a couple months ago. Now he is making $11 PT and still paying child support. I am so lost right now and I need to get pointed in the right direction. He tells me he loves me but continues to bring up my past, yell at me, calls me names. I know I'm not a perfect angel but I do try to make things work for our daughter. Has anyone had to deal with this in the past? I really need advise on what to do so I can get on the path to happiness.
