My father was an achcoholic, and I saw the way he treated my mom,my brothers, sisters and I suffered the abuse as well.
It was not the physical abuse that was hard to recover from, but the emotional abuse that left the deepest scars.
Some times he did not have to do anything, it was simply who he became when drinking that brought terror.
I still struggle with some of these scars to this day.
I thank Jesus for bringing the healing He has to my heart and life.
Getting spritual advise from those trained in this is a good step.
My mom did this as well.
My mom did divorce my father, because he only worsened, but she honored her vows till the day she passed.
I wanted to speak about this to you simply so you would know the effects it can have on a child.
Sometimes one can tell themself that its not so bad, but its not always the streangth of the action, but the ongoing action that brings injury.
I will keep you, your child, and your husband in my prayers, that Jesus will bring His healing to your family and husband.
No one can tell you what to do, sometimes you have to trust Jesus to bring the truth to your heart and decision to make.
Hugs and God bless.
