if you haven't already, you need to leave the abusive person. Depending on what state you live in evidence of abuse should make this case fairly easy to handle. Unfortunately, your situation is not that unique. I was in that situation myself.
If your daughters have been abused, they are pretty much old enough to speak for themselves, in some states.
I'm so sorry you're in this situation, but you can get through it.

You didn't really say what kind of help you need? Are you in need of a therapist? If so, each city normally has a low-income therapy center. Plus, you will find help if you call the Domestic Violence Hot-line. They are free, and will be more than happy to direct you to the closest center near you. They can help you in many ways. If it's a legal problem, than you need to call a paralegal, they cost much less than a lawyer, and do the same job as a lawyer. Good luck!

Hi I can definitely relate to your situation. I am in a process of a divorce myself. I separated from my soon to be ex over 13 years ago, even though still legally married, I too was in a abusive relationship, physically, mentally, and emotionally I had 2 daughters at that time, my oldest being 12, my younger one 10 at the time I left. I was told to leave by my eldest daughter at that time. I still remember her very words even as of this day. Mom just leave dad, you will be happier and we won't suffer as much either. So he stayed with my girls, when i left, it just killed me inside. They lived in fear of their alcoholic father would come to search for us and kill us, as he would say all the time. My son was 8 mos. then, and went with me. So the moral of the story is, the best thing you can do for yourself as well as for your girls, is leave as fast as you can, do not turn back, but keep looking forward. It does get better in due time. Their are shelters for battered woman and their children. No woman deserves to be abused by anyone. I am a Legal Secretary so I know plenty of attorneys, but I am starting my own business as Legal Assistance. Yahoo has my e-mail if you wish to chat some more. My heart goes out to you and your girls.

You can also try contacting legal aid for your county. Also, move out try going to relatives or a friend's house, get a job and build a life for you and your children.

Go to a shelter for women, every town has one, they will protect you. Go to a church or go to your children's school and ask to talk to a counselor. Do what ever you have to, there is help out there but you have to make your problem known to someone who can help.
God bless and take care of yourself and children.
